flizzyIt's crazy how except for PND, Drake has maybe 5 songs with the other label members in his entire career. They could've easily made this album better.
We need a Collab album with Smiley 😂😂

2wordsDisagree on monotone melodies
I feel like drake’s singing was monotone for projects like Views and Scorpion, he was singing in a low range a lot
On this he started being in his higher range and really singing more. These melodies are way better than they have been.
The issue isn't the range that he's sing in IMO.. I'm more so critiquing his vocal lines specifically.. on a lot of these tracks he's meandering aimlessly on the scale and even if they're interesting movements he's tranversing through his tessitura in really small intervals, so it literally sounds like droning.. Views and Scorpion are WORLD's apart and Views belongs no were near Scorpion or This.

Scorpion was way more drone like for me. I cant even listen to those r&b songs outside of After Dark. I hate how boring his singing was in that period
Tried our best is a better written song than any of the scorpion r&b songs

Crazy is a good word. The album is crazy, wild, INSANO. It’s drake’s TLOP
Oct 9, 2023·editedHis albums are getting less and less memorable, haven't been impressed since HNVM, and IYRTITL before that
He spends way more time trying to make everyone happy than making the album he wants to make or feels he should make

lil yachty so quirky bro
Oct 9, 2023there is a lot of truth to this, people just don't realize it
Oct 9, 2023Its not all about missing 40s production.
for example

slimetimeI’m sure 40 oversees everything Drake puts out but we all know Drake has a busy great life.
He’s gambling in some of the best resorts on Earth
Getting matching nails with Lil Yachty
DMing some of our favorite IG models to use them for song material.If you check the credits, he’s been way less involved compared to Drake’s 09-2016 run.
FATD literally only has 6 40 production credits out of 23 songs smh
Drake letting bums like Lil Yachty influence him. Atleast Kanye picks actual good artists to bite.
BNYX ain’t no Boi-1da. F*** OZThe further 40 gets from his music, the worse it’s gotten on average
You get it.

Change it to 808's/Weeknd influence and you got yourself a hit thread

tomorrow volverse40 has severe MS and it’s a progressive illness. He has literally lost years of his life due to spending the early 2010s locked into late night studio sessions, mixing, touring with Drake, and most importantly, not having consistent medical treatment
he talks about it in certain interviews
40 just isn’t in the same position to be as involved in Drake’s albums anymore
and I don’t even think you’re wrong, I truly believe that 40’s influence on Drake is a major reason why Drake could make albums like So Far Gone, Take Care, and Nothing Was The Same
he is at least 30-45% of why Early Drake was such a special artist to listen to
but this doesn’t mean that FATD is a bad album
it’s just not the SameI understand that from the Perspective of a Thank Me Later fan, most of the concepts, lyrics, and production styles we got on For All The Dogs seem like a completely different guy

I mean I hear y’all. I really do, but y’all gotta be realistic. This nigga has put out so much music since 09 and been dominate since that time. What are you all really expecting? The subject matter and lyrics aren’t always going to be there due to his lifestyle and the frequency that he records music. Even if you think he IS falling off…THE NIGGA HAS HAD THE LONGEST RUN IN RAP HISTORY. Lol it wouldn’t be a crime
Btw, I f*** with the album

2.44 onwards in this song is the essence of Drake to me. That and the song Club Paradise.
I don’t think we’ve gotten enough Drake and 40 over recent years, obviously there are reasons for that but it would be cool to hear them fully lock in together for one more project before he finishes his career. They genuinely make magic together.

You will never get this again like this unfortunately and it has way more to do with Drake's insecurities than 40
He has mentioned in the past, how people have labeled him as 'soft and emo' and how they did this because of the soundscapes and beats he uses to use. Idk if others have picked up on it, but he spoke about this in a 2013 interview prior to NWTS, that it really pisses him off that ppl think he's this emotional sad guy.
It can be argued that that's why he's who he is today from an image and iconography standpoint, consciously working to NOT be Tumblr quote era drake.
It's no coincidence that since SFG, every album has had less and less of 40, as he tirelessly worked to shed the soft / emo / good guy image.

But I agree w/u
It's what made him special, and Drake over 40 production was / is his defining trait as an artist.
