    what are your favorite tracks off the album brother?

    In no order but I'm lovin' these:

    Champagne Poetry
    Papi's Home
    Girls Wants Girls
    Way 2 Sexy
    TSU (that 1st minute needs to be skipped tho ofc)
    N 2 Deep (2nd half is god like)
    NFITI
    Fountains
    YOL2

    I will also say I haven't given the second half of this album that many listens as the first because I don't have much time and also because I have Fountains and N 2 Deep on repeat a lot

    But I do feel that just like Scorpion if he reduced it to like 10 - 12 tracks this s*** would be really nice

    You perfectly summarized my thoughts on CLB: “like a lot of songs on CLB…it feels like it shouldn’t be Drake’s song.”

    For me it’s not even about him being “outshined” or that the features were better than he was. This album felt scatterbrained; it felt like a compilation of drake features from the respective featured artists’ albums.

    The songs themselves are good! Don’t get me wrong! But as an album … as a body of work… this was a very disappointing showing from the artist who’s music I love the most 💔

    Yeah pretty much. Girls Want Girls, In the Bible, Way 2 Sexy, Knife Talk, You Only Live Twice, Fountains, and IMY2 all feel like they were just songs he was featured on that he ended up taking for his album. Kind of like Crew Love and Preach.

    Combine that with Yebba's Heartbreak where he isn't featured on it all... it's just so full of tracks that don't make it feel like an album.

    I really like a lot of those songs too. Even the ones I don't, I feel like I'd hate them less if they were just features and not on his album.

    you missing out on the second half of the album. it's full of heaters especially f***ing fans 2nd half is quintessential drake

    at first listen i thought there were some tracks that should not have made the cut. but after 2 weeks, i can confidently say it's impossible to cut more than 1-2 tracks off the album

    Wasn't feeling it at first, but this grew on me and is now one of my favs

    Real question is why this or Race My Mind or Get Along Better ain't the single but Way 2 Sexy is

  • Sep 16, 2021

    I’ll admit the first 5-10 seconds I wasn’t feeling at first, but once the song really starts it really is such a vibe . One of my favs off the album forsure

    Pretty much this. As a solo Song it's pretty good, but it comes at a time in the album where it's start to drag a bit

    Drag? Race my mind just before it 🤨

  • Sep 16, 2021

    Honestly one of Drakes worst vocal performances

    Drag? Race my mind just before it 🤨

    With draggin I mean in overall runtime. Depending on my mood the album can start to feel like a chore around this song, but not because the songs are bad, but just because I prefer a runtime of 45-60 min

    Way 2 Sexy has way bigger anthem potential

    I love Race My Mind & Get Along Better as well but they won’t get a crowd like this

    Yeah that's true. It's probably the only banger on the whole album that'll get a crowd like this. Maybe No Friends In the Industry too?
