AgonYI don't think it's the themes or songwriting that makes people miss the "old Drake" music. It's the mixing, especially the vocal mixing.
Take Care through to Views all have extremly good vocal mixing and recording that just makes Drake sound amazing and loud and present. They started changing something during the process of more life and then commited to it on Scorpion.
The only time since then they have gone back to it was around 2019/2020 around Dark lane and early CLB. Tracks like Omerta/Gold Roses/No Guidance/Life is Good/Chicago Freestyle/Deep Pockets/Landed have that "old drake" vocal mixing that just makes him sound present and charismatic and have very little autotune.
All that Lil Baby/Gunna/Yachty influence made him change up the vocal recording/mixing approach and that's what puts people off the music the most in my opinion. It's especially obvious when demos and early versions leak and just have more typical sounding Drake vocals. HNVM suffered a lot from too much autotune, CLB also in parts. Compare any 2021/2022 Drake tracks to NWTS or Views tracks and listen to how much better he sounded on those. The songwriting, rapping, singing and delivery all got better. The mixing and in some ways the production got worse and doesn't give people that same atmosphere, charisma and nostalgia.
I'm hoping the mixing and the production is what he means when he wants to give people that "old Drake" rather than the songwriting/delivery/themes.
I agree with everything youâre saying except.. people have been saying âI miss the old drakeâ since way before even take care was released. It just boils down to drake drops really timeless music, so, for example, when people listen to NWTS they attached it to whatever they are going through at that point in life (college, breakups, etc.) Then a new drake album is announced and dropped so they have to unpack a whole new drake project it slowly seeps into a new narrative that they are going through in their present lives, but it truly takes time (come with a classic, they come around years later and say itâs a sleeper). And people get attached to those feelings and crave to recreate that moment but itâs simply impossible to do that and humans are known to live in the past a lot so it creates this weird dynamic of people craving something that an artist or really anything in life canât recreate.
In my opinion, what youâre talking about is a separate topic that could be debated. Personally, I think they changed up his vocal mixing because they were afraid keeping it how it was would become stale or repetitive.
