Drake raps mostly about his high school days, where no one would pay too much attention to him. The background music is made up of a girl humming and playing a slow beat, where Drake and Jay-Z take turns rapping about their careers. This song's music and rhythm matches perfectly with Drake's and Jay-Z's tone, because both rappers use a calm, egotistical ambitious tone.

The song reaches it's end when Jay-Z's second verse is rapped and the hook is played. That is followed by the actual hook of the song, which in turn leads to Jay-Z's first verse. It is followed by a short hook, and right after is when Drake begins his first verse. The introduction tends to give listeners chills, because it is said calmly, boldly, and straight-forward, reminding most of a Morgan Freeman scene. The song "Pound Cake" has a unique beginning and introduction to it, as it starts off with a man saying a speech in a deep voice of how hip-hop was back in the day.
