    the way i see it, most albums continue on one vibe, story, theme, or mood that holds the album together. a filler track can continue that vibe or whatever, but doesn't take the album anywhere higher or lower. it's a track that doesn't expand on anything that has happened so far or make it feel like it was worth being put on the album. a filler track doesn't mean it's a bad track. it can be both, but in most cases, the track goes in one ear and out the other. it has no purpose in the album. it's the track that would be left on the drawing board or should be a soundcloud loosie at most. if the track never came out, it wouldn't make an impact on an artists career. if it did come out, it wouldn't make an impact on an artists career.

    filler songs are subjective, but i would consider it most times to be a solo track since they didn't care enough to put a feature on it. i would also compare it to a tv episode in the middle of the season that didn't get as much of the budget to it because they made 10 great episodes in a 12 episode season and they have 2 episodes that they didn't get enough money to, so they focus more on character growth compared to enhancing the story line

    Yeah, said something similar in one of my posts but erased it. Filler is not the same as a skip, you can not f*** with a song but still realize its value. A filler track is just like "What was the point of this? "

    a lot of people use filler to describe a bad song on the album. which kinda downplays what filler songs actually are.

    Drake- half of scorpion, 75% of views, 75% of dldt

    doesn’t make any sense, dldt is literally a filler project and views has maybe 2 filler songs

    It’s filler because it didn’t need to be 3 minutes long. Effectively song could’ve done the exact same not being there or being a short intro to highlights.

    This simply isn’t true because if he cut it down to 14 tracks it would have almost no rapping and then people would be mad about that

    Length of a song does not determine if it’s filler.

    If you waste 3 minutes telling me something you could have in 30 seconds, then it’s filler yes.

    Songs that don’t really stand out. Just there to fill out the album to up the amount of streams it can potentially get.

    Lol, aside from maybe my take on filler in GKMC, don’t really see how what I said isn’t at least somewhat agreeable.
