If i had to pinpoint one song where i noticed this in particular, that would be don't matter to me. Love or hate the mj parts - but that 2nd drake verse sounds like prime drake and we got a great 40 beat. And right when you are expecting him to jump into a rap verse like on the motion or trust issues the song cuts out after the hook. Its like he wrote a great verse and a decent hook and didn't want to add bars to keep with the double album concept and ended up adding that first verse where he sounds lazy and bored.

That leads me to peak. I dunno if thats a filter on his voice or bad mixing/auto tune but his voice just sounds off and too nasally. 2014 drake woulda murdered that joint and probably given us some bars or a beat switch on there. He's lowkey used that tuning/filter for some of his recent shows too.

Then he gives us songs like jaded, finesse, nice for what or his girls need love remix part where he sounds great. He still got it in him to drop songs like the motion, days in the east, furthest thing. Maybe 40 just needs to challenge him or we need jordan/party/85/noel/oz on production more. We'll see.

The Scorpion hate is a meme though. I have not seen any real hate for it. Album slaps.

I don’t think it’s particularly “hate”. For me I realized a lot of the side A was redone or song songs was adjusted and tooking off after the pusha and Ye s***. Cause that first half was subs at Ye and how he felt against the world and pusha. Side B was some filler and just dull parts. So when I called the album mid and came off as hateful at first it was like I knew drake had a classic within this album. I think the album should of been 7 rap 7 RnB/pop. My next hope for drake album is just a 12-13 track album with strictly bars. Maybe some simp s*** in the mix. That’s what I think drizzy need right now

But those said songs are still very good - at least IMO. I would honestly only remove 2-3 songs from Scorpion. However, I agree with your last part. I need a cohesive album next, something on the lines of NWTS.

What do you mean it doesn’t know what it wants to be? What is it supposed to be?
