    People have been calling his output mid ever since Views, and “intentionally” dropping bad music to “get one over” on your label so they have to pay you more in the future is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard ever.

    What people always fail to overlook with the whole Endless/Def Jam situation was that Endless was actually a very high quality record, and that’s how he was able to dupe them. It’s not like he turned in an hour of fart sounds and they released it as part of the deal

    Facts at the end of the day, deal or not, it’s still a reflection of YOUR artistry lmao

    Imagine the egg on every Drake stan's face if it turned out the albums they convinced themselves were classics and spent years defending were intentionally garbage

    It would be crazy, lol.
    Like I said, I don’t think it’s true, but it’s kinda wild that it’s even a possibility

    the fact that everyone now is gonna claim they’re doing a frank ocean move is gonna be sooo corny lol

    In the 2010s the excuse for a mid album was “ it’s just a mixtape “, now it’s “they’re trying to get out of a deal” .

    dork stans gonna go from calling FATD a classic to a purposefully mid album made to f*** over UMG

    I remember calling that s*** mid back then and the response was basically HAD to put out mid because he has to appease his large fanbase

    Considering Drake promo’d FATD his entire tour saying he wants to recreate the sound of “the old Drake” and something the fans will love

    I f***ing doubt it holy cope

    even something like all of Drakes album being overly long is something 40 talked about when they made NWTS when he challenged Drake to make the album as concise as possible.

    The flaws in what he does have always been there so the idea that this is all a choice is, to me, some cope.

    Don’t think any albums are mid, but the promo, marketing, rollouts, approach to commercial success/hits, etc all changed after scorpion…

    FATD was the least old drake album ever

    It’s like when he said CLB was about being in a relationship when it was all bachelor songs and then he said HNvm was a bachelor album when he was simping every track

    It just seems like 40 doesn’t have much insight in his projects as he used to. I think the last time they 100% locked in together on a joint was Views

    Drake was a Certified Lover Boy but Honestly, Nevermind that's Her Loss

    Might be a poor artistic choice, but it’s obviously a conscious choice for commercial reasons.. wouldn’t call it a flaw from where he was standing
