I’m not getting any good answers in this thread. All I see are subjective opinions . What exactly do y’all want?

I think "evolving" is overrated.

The fools are whoever heard SFG, TML, TC, NWTS....and thought that in 2021 CLB would be anything different content wise.

He told you off the rip exactly who he was as an artist.

Truthfully, most artist content wise don't evolve.

IMO Drake actually has evolved. Content is the same, but the rapping, the interpolating of rapping and singing, all are miles better than they were years ago.

What else would be interesting to you? When he’s triumphant about it, the people don’t like it.

When he’s pessimistic about it, the people don’t like it.

When he’s unsure about how to feel about it, people don’t like it.

What else he got to say to you? 🤣 just stop listening and stfu.

i gave you dark fantasy as a comparison bro. if kanye could make runaway im sure drizzy can find SOMETHING to talk about that isnt opps and trust issues

they don’t know what they want their waste youts

also I did stop listening. thats why that new project is collecting dust on my spotify outside of 2 tracks

can still give my opinion though since this thread is directed at people like me

"Look, gotta hold my head high with two dry eyes
I told you everything is fine, dawg, but I lied
I be tryna draw the line, but it's a fine line
And I'm drownin' out the noise from the sideline
Sometime it's louder than the voice I got in my mind
I can't even hear myself when I get quiet time
Like, how they tellin' me I'm done, when I'm in my prime?
They've been tryna push a narrative since '09
And they even had my ass convinced a couple times"

No opps or trust issues.

second half is his usual s***

first half is just a bunch of nothing to me but maybe it makes more sense in the full context of the song? dont want to dismiss you though so imma give that outro another spin

also ironically your username is a perfect example of him saying some real s***

The only point I'm making is it that it's different take on being Jaded, where he's expressing self doubt and sadness despite being at the top the game.

Him telling you he’s kinda unhappy cuz he’s feeling lost is nothing to you? Him showing you that he’s also human so he encounters everyday mental and emotional issues as everyone else is not relatable?

somehow you resonate with a song about calling out evil and negative people in the world yet you have this negative ass take about a nigga being open about his mental state/health lmao douchebag

s***s not done that well lol, its not deeper than that. just my opinion. I respect any issues hes going through of course

and yall need to chill acting like not liking some bars is a personal offense to you

Eh I dunno man, on introspective songs like Views, 30 for 30, Lose you and The Remorse everything from production, subject matter, to his delivery is pretty great imo.

His evolution musically has been slow but listen to the The Calm and then The Remorse and it's pretty staggering tbh. I'm not about to insult you if you don't agree though, it's never that deep lol

If you don’t f with dude music listen to other artists then. No one is forcing y’all to listen lol. Drake makes music for his fans

holy s*** I forgot about that, what did he say again?

Drake folk era soon

I don’t exactly remember tbh, but it was something along those lines

Rookie numbers

insert moody synth pads and trap drums here, it has a few things like fountains but the rest of it is fairly one note, ones with the chipmunk samples are hard tho

Honestly I think Drake’s just in a good place. He’s out here bragging about his mom being in good health and him figuring out co-parenting and having a good relationship with his BM. People don’t make the “needs to evolve” criticism when an artist makes 10 songs about depression (and they shouldnt). I don’t think people are used to Hip Hop from a mostly happy individual.

F*** it get Drake on some Harry Fraud/Alchemist beats and get lyrical spiritual on it

Wale has evolved
Drake sounds the same
Cole has evolved drake simply hasnt not complicated
