So we're not going to talk about this TS pairing? That's grounds for cancelation in my eyes.

Not the first time they've teased a collab for it to not happen... but maybe something for that rumoured EP she's dropping soon?

He knew that CLB wasn’t it.

Imma wait. I’ve skipped listening to his last project because of too many consecutive quality failures. I hope he returns to form here. But I fear the title might be my stance wrt any new Drake music.

I do like seeing Black Coffee on the exec producer list, I hope he has quite a bit of involvement.
But if this is as boring as CLB I think I'm gonna be done with him.

I'm shook that this is only 14 tracks. Maybe this could actually be good if that means he got rid of the filler that riddled his most recent releases.

So this is basically an album full of second rate Passionfruit’s and Take Care’s.
I like the production but the lyrics on these songs 😑

I agree that the lyrics are interesting, but this beats CLB for me hands down. That’s not to say this is a masterpiece though, because it’s not, but you bet your ass I’ll have this on repeat.

I’m actually into this as it’s how I like my Drake. It’s def a summer vibe album. This is wayyyy above his last album for me.

Ok this isn’t terrible but I stand by what I said.
Best tracks upon first listen Sticky Jimmy Crooks Massive A Keeper
The second half of the album is much better than the rest and this would have worked better as an 5 to 7 track EP
This is gonna be a hit in clothing stores across America 😂

Is Jimmy Crooks about Jimmy Brooks?

As much as I would have liked a Dance/House album from him, that ship sailed a long time ago when he did songs like "Passionfruit" or "Controlla." Based on what I heard of the clips, it sounds like he went to some seedy bathhouse and he heard a couple of songs and thought that this is kind of hot and then decided to make a full album out of those same few sounds but it just doesn't work. I feel like he is at the stage of his career where he is doing anything and everything to see what sticks. It's truly sad to see him become so desperate at this stage of his career.

I don't think Drake has a strong enough voice to carry a full album in this style. And quite a few of the songs just drone on. But I gratefully welcome the switch, he's been treading water for years. At the very least, this is a really strong vibe and can nicely play in the background and keep my feet tapping.

I don't like him (like AT ALL, bordering on HATE) but STICKY is a fucking bop and JIMMY COOKS is that <N-WORD>!

Okay but like I actually like this album. The production definitely makes up for his lack of variety with his vocals but I don't mind. It seems dance music is making a comeback and I am here for it.

I really appreciate him taking a different direction with this album. I have always wanted to see him explore this sound more, as Passionfruit is one of my faves from him. With that being said, this album falls kind of flat, and it’s mainly due to his vocals. Drake’s singing voice isn’t made for some of these songs. The simplicity of the production on a few of the songs, along with the monotone-ness in his voice, made for an uneventful listen. None of the songs are bad, per say, but nothing really stood out lyrically (aside of Sticky and Jimmy Cooks), which is rare for a Drake album.

I keep going back to Texts Go Green. That’s the only one that has stuck with me. The album in general seems like a weird move by him. After the lackluster reception of CLB I thought he would have given his core audience what they really want. Also, the one hip hop record at the end of this is off. This could have been a cute EP for the gheys for the summer….who knows I can hear many of these songs used as part of reels on the tik tok and IG. If Drake wanted to venture down this route in sound he should have hit up Kaytranada.
Massive sounds like the perfect feature for Drake x Robyn.
