Gave it another listen on a good night of sleep.

Album should have started with Views first of all. The intro just made me cringe. I remember when I heard Tuscan Leather for the first time and I was like yo this boy Drake got one :leon:

I mean it's everything you'd expect from a Drake album -- singing, moody beats, reminiscing about some girl that did him wrong, etc.

Album is also too goddamn long for this R&B approach - I found myself falling asleep at times and the lack of bangers didn't help keep me engaged.

I guess I shouldn't expect different but he's honestly exhausted these topics as well as the sound. I'd like to see him try something new but if the formula works, I get it.

The songs that I liked / found tolerable:

Views
U With Me?
Hype
Weston Road Flows
Controlla
One Dance
Fire & Desire


I go back and forth on Grammys -- sounds like a WATTBA throaway.

Gave it the whip test,Sounds dope in the whip brehs, :whew:

Im taking off the album version of controlla and adding the one with Popcaan. Popcaan killed it, Drake crew dropped the ball by taking it off.

Cant wait till my fav instagram models start making videos shaking ass to these songs:ahh:
