3 tracks in so far. Instant classic. Reminds me of the vibe from Thank Me Later

The fact that you think it's a classic after just listening tells me it isn't.


The best albums grow on you, they aren't OMG CLASSIC after the first listen. Probably like all drake albums, a few good songs, a few garbage songs, the real ok.

Well come on bro. I'm not a drake fan by no means. But I'd at least give it multiple listens before a review.

people will likely bash it because of the "trap" rap era we are currently in...

Last verse on "U with me?"

I've always looked at Drake as someone that can make hit after hit and make bank with singles, but the rest of his albums are meh. The dude is looked at as some god and people are constantly on the guys jock, yet he's never had anything close to a classic and is arguably the most overrated person in music

Swap drake for Kendrick and we could have used this post a few times.
Made 1 listen through, I like it. Not calling it a classic but I like it so far. Seems like some people are jumping the gun like TPAB, which was a few goods songs and meh

TPAB took many listens for me. And it's known as one of the best rap albums over the last 10 years for a reason. Drake has never had an album with close to that kind of critical acclaim. But people slob on the dudes dick so much. It's crazy to me

I was just saying that you could swap Drake/Kendrick's names on here when they drop a new album and people will post that it is the greatest. Not that I didn't like TPAB, honestly, I don't even think it was better than GCMC but that's just my opinion and sound I like. FTR, I like both of their music and I don't find their styles comparable.

6 tracks in highly disappointed. Is it all slow r&b type songs? I was hoping for bangers like on his mixtape. I should have known better

There's a few good songs that aren't r&b. Hype, Grammys, Pop Style, Still Here and 9 are prolly my favorites

Drake has definitely peaked but I will say he is probably the only rapper I listen to who hasn't switched up his style throughout his career and I like that about him. His flow has been mostly the same since day 1. I respect that.

I cannot stop listening to Pop Style this week. Heard he's got an alternate version with just him instead of Jay and Kanye.
