All Iām saying is, itās less common and more shallow than it used to be from him. You named 7 songs from 3 different projects, I can name 7 songs from one of his older albums that are more introspective with more emotional depth than most of those.
No oneās saying itās bad, itās just an observation
Take Care is more mature than this album lmao.
I guess people were wanting Drake to drop his 4:44 eventually. They really want Drake to drop all his hoes and get into his dad raps lol
Would you do it if you were him?
Some of yāall need to understand that critiquing an artist isnāt a negative thing lmao
Drake is still one of my favorite artists, that doesnāt mean I canāt point out observations of changes in his output that have happened as his careerās progressed
Tbh honest itāll only hurt him in this silly online debates. His work put in gonna reap all the benefits and legacy when people look back.
I disagree
Take Care is more mature than this album lmao.
Exactly.
And again, thatās not necessarily good or bad, itās just something to be noticed

I named 7 songs off the top of my head. Half of Certified Lover Boy is introspective / deep or whatever you wanna label it as.
Honestly Nevermind was very much honest, introspective, and vulnerable and that came out a couple months ago?
If Drake wants to be immature and have fun with his music now, thatās fine, I still enjoy it for the most part.
But to act like heās as introspective and emotionally resonant as he used to be is ludicrous
alright, n95, humble, dna, all the stars, btch dont kill my vibe, loyalty etc.
kendrick def has more made more fun/hit type of songs than drake has made deep/thought-provoking songs so if anything IMO kdot is closer to doing both.
Youāre going quantity
But Iām talking quality
I would take Look What Youāve Done and Too Much over u and mortal man
And also take any drake hit over all of those
If I wanna cry and be introspective Iād listen to drake
If I wanna have fun Iād listen to drake
Thereās not a situation Iād go to Kendrick for
I think this is where Drake spreading himself so thin and being so prolific hurts him.
Liability off HN will be forgotten. Incredibly introspective
Champagne poetry is going to be forgotten
The Remorse is going to be forgotten
Pipe Down is going to be forgotten
7AM
Losses off DLDT
You can not like the music, but to say that he's stagnant and regressing from a source material perspective is factually just not true. He's still giving the people real life type s*** that go beyond the club and trap slaps.
Iāll make sure liability doesnāt get forgotten.
Would you do it if you were him?
Idk tbh. I do love my hoe phase during college, but I've honestly outgrown it with my different goals in life. I guess if I had money to push those goals aside for 10 more years and have more fun then maybe?

So edgy and corny

Half of CLB is nowhere near as emotionally resonant as albums like Take Care and NWTS lmao
And Honestly Nevermind is more vulnerable than introspective, but then again a lotta those songs are pretty general and not as specific to Drake as his older material is
Iām not disagreeing with anything you said here.
My point was just that, as his career has progressed, heās gotten less and less introspective and emotionally deep with each project he releases.
There are still moments here and there, but it used to be one of the main factors of his music. Thatās not so much the case anymore.
Itās not necessarily a good or a bad thing, just an observation
Oooh I get you. Yeah I felt it too at times, the lack of āToo Muchāās, āLook What Youāve Doneāās even āLose Youāās etc. Felt like peeping into his diary back then so it probably was even more relatable. I felt this especially on CLB, his ear for melodies is still godlike, I still enjoy some of those songs for what they are but I totally get what youāre saying. Well, you have to respect the place heās in right now if you donāt feel it then you just donāt.

Youāre the only person to understand the point Iām trying to make lmao
I CANT TALK TO BROKE BOYS
All you niggas rappin' 'bout the bricks and the licks
Then I hear in real life you livin' with your b****
