Hot take but nobody has more flows than Drake
He did rap really really well on Scary Hours 3, reminiscent of “The Calm” ,on a few of these joints, from SFG by keeping the same rhyme scheme throughout the song. I really enjoy these songs, but there is an obvious point to notice how effortless it sounds on the rap records, so much so, Drake says it verbatim in one of these haha.
His rap songs are missing some type of urgency in the music and/or his delivery that gives these all rap songs a different energy that seems to be missing from his music lately. It can come across as boredom, arrogance, effortlessness, or a combination of the 3, but it is noticeable and can have people questioning why does he sound like this currently…
op didn't really lie but this being place in drake sxn obvs gonna make the d*** riders go on defense mode lol
I mean you got the OG FATD for the non boring drake
Drakes fan base is huge.
As a day 1 Drake fan I don’t want an album of 20 tracks of Drake rapping over beats like this tbh cuz yeah it would get old quick. If Drake did this s*** all the time people would say he can’t get in his “Hit” bag anymore.
I mean SH3 shows it 6 tracks that seem kinda boring to the normal drake listener but then gives you you broke my heart

Just to argue the other side of this.
Putting aside the content of his lyrics, I think people in general just want one rap album, similar to sh3, but with 5-6 more songs, and they don’t all have to be conducter beats or Diary Drake flows. First person shooter and evil ways are good examples of being able to satisfy rap evangelists and the casual music lovers who just want a bop.
However, now with SH3, I don’t think anyone has the right to complain because we’re all fed.
This nigga has made every single style y'all wanted from him yet somehow it's still the same complaints he came with some great melodies and pop/dance that y'all wanted on HNVM somehow that wasn't enough came back with all kinds of different flows and deliveries on fatd/her loss and y'all called it mid he came back a month later and gave y'all the bars y'all wanted and now it's boring it's waaaaaay to predictable at this point and I understand criticism is fair but sometimes it feels disingenuous what do y'all Really want from drake ??
They want him to fail
yeah that’s why I don’t care for a whole ass album of timestamp tracks, with that being said Scary Hours 3 was the perfect amount and I really enjoyed those songs
I think the exception to this is 4PM in Calabasas where he bars out but also has some melodies here n there, a mfing masterpiece tbh
The thing is, timestamp tracks and these “real rap” jawns used to have incredible energy.
as a giant drake fan who loved SH3, it sucks that drake fans are so used to dumb criticisms of his music that when someone says a criticism actually worth considering they shut it down immediately

I love this thread. Exposing Drake stans lack of understanding of the technicals of rap.

This is my biggest issue with “Lyrical Drake” post like 2016. Very few of the songs he’s dropped since then where he’s trying to display his lyrical prowess have had any type of energy, just that same lazy, monotone talking style delivery in one long verse. If you go and compare songs like 5AM in Toronto or 6PM in New York with his modern day lyrical songs, the difference in energy in his deliveries is night and day, and it makes the newer songs so boring to listen to
I like how a person just rapping regularly without a cartoon voice or 50 layers of distortion is boring now lool. ADHD

Drake knows how to rap well and make it entertaining at the same time.
5AM in Toronto, Tuscan Leather, 6PM In New York, First Person Shooter, Lord Knows, War… I can go on
That monotone one long verse talking delivery bullshit he does a lot on his bar heavy songs nowadays is boring as s*** to listen to

Which ones do you think are monotone ? Like I know people used to say war was monotone but that song is nuts sonically and lyrically fr

Pretty much every song on Scary Hours 3 besides You Broke My Heart
The Remorse
7AM On Bridle Path
Middle of the Ocean
Is There More
Lemon Pepper Freestyle
Songs like that
This is how I felt about Scary Hours 3
The monotone delivery kinda fit the very mellow and vibey production though. I thought it sounded really boring, but the raps were good. It was for the rap fans for sure. Niggas who like SRS a lot
