He really treated nothing was the same as an afterthought with how fast he dropped Trophies which was a left over but was such a big song it kicked off the next Era
More life is not apart of that, and views is borderline
NWTS some heat can’t expect people to let it go. I don’t understand why people can’t appreciate both though? Especially since his rapping is WAY better now.
But Tuscan Leather, The Language, From Time? Stop playing that man was on his s***

More life is a classic off the album cover alone.. .and Views is arguably his best album definitely top 3
I too have favorite Drake records from that era. Hell, Extra Special and Video Girl are some of my joints from RFI
But it's definitely lame for me to hear people talk about his past work as if the current work isn't up to standard. Maybe it isn't to them, idk but I was there when TML dropped...and niggas was wanting old drake even then.
When NWTS dropped...niggas was wanting old drake then.
That's why it's funny to me when people talk about old drake. "Old Drake" was not nearly as teflon as it is now. That's why the debate over whether or not he had a classic(s) lasted for so long.
So yeah, the fantasy of "old drake" when I hear people refer to it just makes me roll my eyes because he's not in a decline musically, and everyone is lying about how they felt about old drake when it dropped.
Niggas are liars man Take Care, NWTS, it was not universally praised like it is now.
I was there. People were / still do like to argue about those albums not even being classics lol
It's just a convenient thing to say now, that old drake was better, but y'all (not y'all specifically) were not f***ing with Drake when Views dropped man.
Ever finish that AI album?
I Did Fam! Imma about to add 4 songs to it and redo that whole album so it sounds more like Drakes voice... but for now, the "Beta Album" Is out lol
Classic moment fr.
Very... i can remember getting off work and coming home to turn on my TV to watch him perform this. The Next night was the Floyd Mayweather Fight!

Need that link brother
woat era
By that logic you can argue that trap is almost ten years old and you should let it go.
Because y’all be wanting his new s*** to sound like that and it’s never going to happen
and yet his new s*** sound more dated than s*** from the NWTS era.
Nothing post IYRTITL has sounded as forward as Days in The East lol
“They say they miss the old Drake girl don’t tempt me”
Why does everyone just assume this means he’s making Take Care 2??? Lmao
Take a step back and stop taking things literally without any information. He said this in 2011, “old Drake” can mean literally anything to different people.
What else could Old Drake possibly mean in 2023 lol
Only real music is gonna last. All that other BS is here today & gone tomorrow
he prophesized his own music that's my GOAT
Matter Fact.... NWTS Leaked 10 Years Ago Today.... I remember calling my ex to tell her happy birthday and I got the text from my college friend at the time saying "drake leaked" .... as soon as i got off the phone with her... I rushed to download it and the rest was history.
The BEST Part was it leaked 1 day before Grand Theft Auto 5!!!
I told my teacher i was showing up late to his class the next day... he said he understood why! lol What A Time...

I made an album out of 2014 called
"Our Si6e"
that collected the best songs from him that year! i'll be shooting out to whoever wants it in April.... probably April 1st with that being when he dropped Draft Day.
