But we got Jumbotron S*** Poppin
i don't like that one, it sounds too much like yachty to me
You can sequence an album like a mixtape/playlist, that's whatever. But the best tapes have little to no duds as well so that's not an excuse for dropping trash albums
Yeat is practically his artist, Drake's method has always been to ride the waves of the current youth too, I think maybe he is just too old to do it without pushback now
You run the risk of looking like a desperate old nigga when doing that when its not done correctly especially when its not your literal protege
After the cole announcment I hope Drake steps back take 6-12 months and re-do the album. We dont need another 5.5/10 Drake album. We need him to deliver a classic
no weeknd's good with concept albums, i had misread what Fader said and was saying that i don't care about concept albums personally due to their looseness compared to other avenues of storytelling.
Like the weeknd's good at music concept albums but in this more challenging medium he falls apart.
I misunderstood you
I hope Drake knows better than to include songs that nobody liked on the tracklist, its a shame, he tried to ignore the loss away while simultaneously throwing gas on it with the lawsuit and it backfired terribly
A lot of people expected him to bounce back easily with a mega hit or two, and the complete opposite happened
I think the 100 GIGS songs flopping hurt his confidence pretty hard shortly after the beef was over
No Face isn't bad but in my opinion he released this song way too early. He should've simply taken a break in 2024
What Did I Miss? never felt authentic because he was never really gone but still tried to tell us "oh, I was gone, did I miss something?"
Which One was whatever and flopped and people already tapped out of the promo when he dropped DOG HOUSE

What did i miss whatve hit so hard if he actually let niggas MISS him
drake should step on cole's s*** tbh, dude was trying to talk slick on port antonio like those weren't drake shots

Drake sounds so corny when he raps songs written by yachty and cash cobain
Correct. Heβs still chasing youth in some of the themes too. Likeβ¦he still think he really has a pulse on the current wave.
This method is what has kept Drake relevant other the years though, he wouldn't still be here if he didn't ride trends. People say they don't like it but it streams and charts well so he sticks by it. I feel Iceman rollout was the first time Drake realised this method has been mostly patched - likely because Kendrick pulled back the curtain on it.

Blud dropped a whole ass collab in February 2025 with a tour and tried to tell us he was gone

i thought those were more kendrick shots
You wanna argue so bad and the whole time Iβm not even talking about you
My fault G
But my question is genuine, what the hell we supposed to talk about when we know nothing about this album
i thought those were more kendrick shots
he tried to spin it like he came out on top because he didn't engage but then tried to big up dude later in the song and it's like, nah brah lol

Which One 150m Streams - still did well outside the US, Dog House was and is a huge flop though especially after IDGAF was one of the biggest singles on FATD

IDGAF was only a "hit" because of the intro with Yeat
Which one was a flop for Drake because it was obvious that he was hoping for a big hit with Central Cee

I hated on Cole after the beef but can't anymore because at the high school I taught at some of my students liked him and tried talking to me about the song. whenever i say something snarky about him i think of them.
his music has grown on me too. Ideally he just doesn't acknowledge it anymore and i enjoy the music
what he did was so lame tho
Cole dropping soon. Iceman not coming until March at the earliest
Albums matter because it is a complete thought for a musician. You can communicate more to an audience in 40 minutes than you can in 3. Albums take the listener on a journey in a way that single songs cannot. Thatβs why the album experience still matters.
An album that is comprised of random songs that lack cohesion is essentially the same as a film comprised of two hours of random scenes that have no correlation to each other whatsoever, or a television season where each episode is entirely different from one another.
An album is to a song what a novel is to a chapter, what a film is to a scene, and what a television season is to an episode.
Asked me why albums matter, gave an answer, no response

Which One wasn't a smash hit like Nokia but it did just as well as 100Gigs, No Face, What Did I Miss. I'd say these songs doing 150m streams are all still respectable. Doghouse was a huge flop though and was the song that made Drake pause the rollout I feel.
I don't even hate cole he's just so corny lol
I didn't mind the apology and back out, after the beef he seemed like a genius, then he releases some could've would've should've ass track still shooting and it's like, go sit down man

I think it's obvious that he wanted to drop in October but the songs flopped and Taylor Swift released her another scam project ruined his plans
Cole dropping soon. Iceman not coming until March at the earliest
It's either very soon or in March/April
