It's way too soon for a final judgement. I always take at least a week and live with an album.

And Drake doesn't need traditional singles anymore. So there's no way that's how he formulated this album. He just has the same struggle every album trying to balance between R&B & Rap. And there's a bigger PND influence on this. No coincidence there...

It's a bigger issue coming of his most rap album ever, where he seemed like he was floating on every song, in that God Mode, like Jay in 99-2000.

Sidenote: I can never listen to the first verse of Child's Play again. Another one of those overly specific, cringeworthy verses...


1 million tweets for an APPLE exclusive, 1 hour sit down Drake interview and album release? No way. If it isn't still trending, then that was manufactured marketing and the hype died down once people listened to the album. No fanbase delays the championship parade. If it was instant fire, they'd be tweeting up a storm right now...

fukk outta here trying to pin this shyt on PND

PND has more writing credits on NWTS, Drake's best album, than he does on this album filled with twenty songs

I did a quick skim through some of the song and it sounds boring af. I think IYRTITL is his best album... by a lot actually. That album grabbed me right off the bat with Legend (that sample was too godly), but nothing has even remotely came close to grabbing me like that of what I've heard so far.

4/20 songs are hot and 2 we already heard beforehand

this is shyt. Weeknd/Quincy made this jew's career

the production sucks too. Aubrey needs an entire new crew of ghostwriters and production

no hit boy beats on here? :camby:


Easily worst Drake album, this shyt even worse than that mixtape album he dropped last year and the shytty Future album too

Listening to it again, and I'm starting to appreciate the song a lot more now. But the sequencing in my opinion is what makes the pacing kinda suffer and comes off as boring to many.

Keep the Family Close should've had at least a two minute extension where it turns into some Just Blaze - Lord Knows type shyt. A 7 Minute intro would've worked if he had done that, I think.

See, stuff like this I really love seeing, because these were the same people who were swearing up and down that Meek Mill was trash, dikkrode Drake all the way to his safe house in Calabasas and swore up and down that Views was going to be a historical album -- which it's not. This was a very humbling experience, and I hope he learned a valuable lesson from all this.

I don't understand how niccas who have confirmed they don't like Drake can sit through an album and review it. It's like me trying to sit through an Iggy album. Will never happen because I know I don't like the shyt for sure. They like dude on the low or some shyt?

I can understand if you like some Drake and dislike some. But some straight up hate the music and still take their time. Crazy to me :laugh:
