Music is at a point now, where dudes are going to microwave the same album over and over again, until the formula doesn't work anymore. This sounds like every other random Atlanta rapper's project that's dropped in the last 8-9 years. No originality or anything even halfway inspiring or undeniably dope. It's just the same beats, drum patterns and flows that have been lifted from other MC's, with the same dry delivery we've been hearing since NWTS. Dudes were who actors before rappers, always seem like they're playing the role of rapper, more than actually being entrenched in the art of being an MC. And when you don’t write your shyt, it just gives everything else a mad inauthentic feel. I'm pretty sure I've given up on Aubrey at this point, lol. Ross and Hov are the highlights of the album.

People gotta start challenging these dudes to make better albums. It's always 20+ tracks of saying nothing memorable, unless someone's beefing. We need more monumental projects that will actually be about something other than just having a new joint out. What Kanye was doing on his first few albums, is what's missing now. Actually being invested in the art of music, and spending time making something that will stand out and basically be classic forever. A lot of what Drake has been doing for years, is just generic everyday template "rap", under a bigger name.

Im glad I’m not the only one not impressed the first 10 songs had me

At work listening to Eric B & Rakim Paid In Full plan on listening Follow The Leader next, I listen to the new Drake on the Ride Home

Fair trade a stand out track so far. I’m at TSU. Hopefully things get better

This album seems like it will be carried by singles too. The difference is the amount of good singles on Views is better than anything that is deemed a single on here

Plus "Weston Road Flows" beats 75% of the songs on this album and it's not a single.

This album literally has no singles lol and he probably did it on purpose so nikkas can’t say wat u jus said

 

[John Mexico]

Honestly, the greatness of Nas SD2 album has distorted my view Kanye and Drake's albums..

Every other album this year needs to be graded on a curve TBH, with the exception of maybe Pray For Haiti.

 

[Buggsy Mogues]

Wonder why Drake never had that same 7 AM type energy for Kendrick

 

[ALonelyDad]

M-M-M-M




M-M-M-M-MAYBACH MUSIC

My top 5 of all time

 

[NSSVO]

W2S is cool and itll land in the club. If Young Thug would rap like he did on that Swizz record, I would be a big fan. Album is fukking good so far. Not TC or IFYR, but in that NTWS and More Life tier.

 

[DredScott]

You Only Live Twice sounds like bootleg Just Blaze wish they got him to produce it.

the irony....

@ Bink's face when he sees people echo this all over twitter

 

[The Midnight Marauder]

Everybody in this thread don't forget Bizzy Bone got a album coming out on the 12th

Ok. I won't forget

 

[NSSVO]

Desus is the goat drake hater man lol

 

[CP3.]

I thought NWTS was better

Take Care is dope tho. NWTS was def the last time he tried to make a cohesive project for sure. And I fukk with drake heavy, just I know what to expect with his albums now. I'll keep like 5 songs off this shyt and look forward to the thots getting turnt to his nonsense

NWTS had less filler which made it a stronger overall project but Take Care is still my shyt. Over My Dead Body

The second half of this album sounds like Drake recreating the 2011-2015

Dope

7 am
The Ross and Wayne track IS Lord Knows part 2
The cudi track does sound like early versions of them
