When I said this shyt I was a hater .I disagree. Drake doesn't really capture feelings. He just gives surface level perspectives based on his relationships. I mean, he'll name drop women as reference points for moments in his life, but it leaves you like "why is this important to the story you're telling". I mean, he's name dropping real women meanwhile, Sasha Thumper and ol girl from "Undying Love" had more depth as fictional women than Erica and Jade.
I'm not saying Drake has to be Andre 3000 or Nas, but he cited them as influences for his early albums, but when they talk about relationships (even fictional ones), I feel it more than when Drake talks about his real relationships. It's crazy because Drake is closer to my age than Nas or Andre, yet I find a song like "Spottieottiedopalicious" or "You Won't See Me Tonight" more soulful than Drake's relationship songs because of the imagery. They don't even have to drop names of the women, but it feels realer than any Drake song. Even when Nas or Andre are vulnerable on songs like "Drunk By Myself" or "Jazzy Belle", it's felt.
Drake makes dope musoc, but as I have always maintained, he lacks depth. It isn't because of the writers either, because Puff and Dre have songs with depth even with somebody else's pen.
