Coli confession: I've never really listened to a full Drake album or more than maybe a dozen songs, tops. For any of the posters here that know me, ya'll know what I fukk with. What are some of dude's best songs/albums? If you don't know what I fukk with, I like Little Brother, Nas, Jay, Kendrick, Cole, Gang Starr, Tribe, Outkast, Mobb Deep, Wu, etc.

For my production heads, do ya'll like 40? That's his main producer, right?

Edit: I did check comeback season, and I like joints like Furthest Thing, Lord Knows, Pound Cake, and some others. I'm mostly a producer-head, and if a producer I like works with Drake, I always check for it. Obviously I've heard all the major singles over the years. Just never really dove into a project.

I'll start with Take Care, I guess.

IYRTITL is his best hip hop project, followed up by SFG but it's more r&b. If I had to rank his work based off how much I listen to them, it would be: IYRTITL > SFG > WATTBA > NWTS > TML > TC > Views/ML

His best hard hitting songs would be:
- Successful from SFG
- SFTB, Wu Tang Forever, All Me from NWTS
- 10 bands, Know Yourself, 6 Man, Star67, 6pm in New York from IYRTITL
- Jumpman, Big Rings, and Scholarships from WATTBA

you might also enjoy Miss Me, The Motto, 5AM in Toronto, For Free, Sneakin, 0-100

I don't bump his singing tracks that often, but Best I Ever Had is amazing and one of his best songs. Come Thru, Controlla, Jungle, and Passionfruit are also alright.

I prefer Boi-1da, but if you like Drake's poppier stuff, 40 is your go-to.

Definitely Take Care

Only Drake album I can bump front to back and I wouldn’t be mad if someone called it a classic

DONT DO IT!!!!
RECONSIDER!!!!

:prodigylol:

NWTS is the best album to me and it’s 3.5 mics. TC is 3 mics. IYRTITL was trash and I stopped checking for Drake after that. He adopted a slowed down wack flow and the beats were terrible.

There are also two collections of his throwaway tracks called NWTS: Reloaded and The 6 that have dope songs.

You strike me as the soft, alternative pop hip hop type. And I don't say that as disrespect.

My favorite Drake songs are pretty much the same as @thewiseman's. I wouldn't go with what he recommended. Stick to pre-hard Drake. Basically everything prior to NWTS. Then check Views and More Life :salute:

Honestly I bet we could make a drake album that’s better than any of his other albums, if we could just pick from all the loosies that he’s dropped between albums..
