terrible review from the worst reviewer on that site
S*** review as I expected
God, when will these people get over themselves and get out of the way of the culture
“Lackluster song writing” all because he let the beat breathe a bit. I can pull like 3 or 4 songs from here that showcase drakes best writing in a while
They don’t have the ears to hear it bruh bruh
All they hear is their preconceived notions about Drake floating around in their heads, not the music
Higher than I expected
New antidote dropping
Tied for lowest with CLB I believe
Yep, you're right. Funny how Pitchfork's review complains mostly about the supposed lack of "Drakeisms" in the writing but other reviewers have criticized him for delivering more of the same lyrically
Not too mad about Pitchfork's rating though - thought they were gonna give it a Jack Harlow-esque review
I know the writer doesn't pick the score but cmon this part don't make sense lol
"brings back his go-to trick of legitimizing trend-hopping by recruiting genre heavyweights into his orbit:"
Wouldn't he be called a culture vulture if he didn't recruit actual people from the genre tho ? And since when is house the current trend

Some of his most clever writing imo. I like that these lyrics can be applied to a bunch of scenarios depending on the listener

Clutching at straws is an understatement. They hate Drizzy this much?
