    unless you on drake stan Twitter ppl s***ting on it everywhere

    Yea social media is split. Like I see stans praising it and people who hate Kanye’s problematic antics praising it as well.

    But the general public seems underwhelmed. I’m actually seeing more praise for Tyler and Nas

    I think CLB is a solid Drake album that is only bogged down by tracks that just shouldn't be there. But the highs are real nice. Race My Mind, Fair Trade, N 2 Deep, Champagne Poetry. Great Drake songs.

    I can't deny tho that Way 2 Sexy is the worst Drake hit he's come up with. The video's great but the song feels forced as f***. Maybe it'll grow on me.

    Race My Mind is just f***ing amazing. I know I'm gonna be playing this song all day every day for the next week.

    drake has never been known for wordplay, especially not like nas, jay or kdot, nor does he rap about anything of substance outside being vulnerable

    we've already covered he's purely a mainstream rapper, you don't need to bolster my point he does it for the money and popularity. that's my point. that's literally why ppl called him pop years ago.

    he makes music for whoever ear will generate money, instead of some with a purpose, message or to experiment. drake is known to play it safe, that's why i think the album is boring and like only 10 max songs are good.

    Come on bruh

    “Lucky I don’t feed them to gossip. Niggas act like they don’t know but they should know. Yeah, I just think it’s funny how they’re dangling the bait, but I’m the one that’s killing n* on the hooks tho”

    But no wordplay though, okkkkkk. That should disqualify your opinion honestly. Drake just rapped and it went pop. He's respected by everyone for a reason (except Pusha of course).

    Mmm Hmm

    my disappointment meter is full.

    Only f***ed with 6.5/21 tracks on CLB on first listen.

    Ima run it back a couple more times this weekend and hope i enjoy it more.

    But right now CLB is somehow worse than Scorpion for me.

    i kno most of yall are gon call me a hater and that i dont go outside...w/e...etc..

    anyways..

    How was everyone else's first listen?


    Tracks i liked

    2nd half of champagne poetry
    Love All
    TSU
    N 2 Deep
    Yebba's Heartbreak
    Race my Mind
    You only live Twice

    You liked it MUCH more than I did.

    I guess it’s different for everyone cause mad people love this album aside from music nerds. The general public and media personalities love it

    There's so many examples of his wordplay and I don't even think that's all that bad. But yeah, I could've used a better example lol

    That's cool. It's cool to be different, but "different" is off-putting to a lot of people. I wouldn't blame Kanye if he wanted to make more accessible music, but Yeezus fans would express their issues. You can never win

    That sounds real personal lmao Ye should dumb down his music so people can understand

    true, and social media esp going to be skewed depending on who you follow/interact with

    To the niggas who feel this on the Kanye forum, in what capacity? What justifies this? Sales, critics, or just personal opinion?

    He dropped the better album IMO
