    All it requires is listening, and I guess it is easily missed because we probably (myself included) mostly listen to the beat or don't really ponder on the words when we sing them. Really shows how much we need to pay attention which we don't seem to do, and Drake has only gotten away with it until now because we have people like yourself and the beef which took us all to rapgenius and other youtubers who listen attentively and break it down for us.
    He literally could have said anything, and we wouldn't have known almost like politics.. and I bet if we paid more attention, perhaps we would be able to make the changes we actually want.

      As a child in the 60’s, teen in the 70’s, we grew up buying albums with the lyrics printed on the back of the album jacket. Some albums opened like a book so the lyrics were in the middle. When cassettes came out, some had the lyrics printed on the small insert(hard as heck to read). My point is we would spend hours listening to songs and reading the lyrics. So we could understand what we were listening. It’s been ages since I purchased a cd 😂. When I’m in the car with my children( 40 & 31), I enjoy the music they listen to. I can’t catch all the words, but I enjoy the melodies. I don’t know when you download music, that lyrics come with it? I say all this to say the younger generation has been cheated out of pleasure of reading and understanding what is being sold to them.

    Tupac was, as you know, k*lled by enemies and that wasn't the first time he had been sh*t by enemies.Tupac sounded paranoid because he was in danger... not because he was weird. Drake sounds paranoid because (I suspect) he has a personality disorder and believes that he is unworthy of friendship, loyalty, and love. The only "enemies" he has are ones he needlessly created by being weird and exploiting every relationship. Please, reconsider comparing these two men who are not alike in any meaningful way.

    This album was the straw that broke the camel’s back as a Drake fan for a decade. He’s my age and he’s the soundtrack for my early twenties, and he really was refreshing and sort of pandered to a female audience. Imagine my disgust when all of these years pass, we’re mid thirties, parents, (although he was unwilling to claim his own child), and he makes an album that sounds like Andrew Tate was co-writing with him. I never looked at him the same after pusha t exposed, and I refused to engage or expect anything different from him after this album. For all the dogs doesn’t even exist in my library. You thoughtfully laid this all out. How prophetic lol.

      Thing is I dont think Drake is that way actually as a person, he just refuses to evolve in his music. My biggest issue with Drake from the beginning has been that he literally doesnt write about anything outside the scope of strictly himself, like if you think about you've never heard him rap about another person or from another person's perspective even briefly. And then what makes it so bad is that even when he's being introspective it's kind of like surface-level introspection, never anything that you can tell really bothers him like Kendrick on "u" for example. Its these factors (& a couple others Skye brings up in the video) that have Drake's music feeling stale to me now after 10 years.

They look guilty as hell, and most likely have engaged in that behavior themselves if they see nothing wrong with it. Creeps galore.

He crafts this carefuly woven fake image that is somewhat more cringe and strange than cool, concealing his true self under those stereotypes.

    Drake has been releasing the same songs over and over for a few years now, only adapting them to whatever wave is trending or coming up at the moment. The formula definitely works, no discussion, but that's what prevents him from being the sophisticated artist he tries to come across as. I wish he kept exploring the 'If You're Reading This' sound, that was Drake at the top of his craft imo.

      I think in a lot of way the audience are to blame here as much as the artist. If we as an audience appreciated projects like "IYRTITL" or "NWTS" to the extent of "Views", I think Drake would've pursued that kind of sound & wave more than he does now. Drake reached the pinnacle of success when he released "Views" and since then didn't want to change it up drastically as he saw how his previous work didn't create the same buzz around the globe as "Views" did. And thus he got comfortable with it.

      This is honestly a horrible take and way to view the album. Everybody’s opinion will change and it will go down as his best album and this is why. At first listen I thought the album was amazing and maybe a couple skips, but this is a special project and once you realize what he went for snd relisten afterwords you’ll see why this is an album for the true fans. If you go back to the trailer for CLB he put out (the CLB Jan 2021) he filmed himself remaking every single one of his album covers, also him and 40(his producer) said they wanted to give us all of drake in one album as in every era of drake. So he is paying homage to himself and literally giving us every era snd version of drake from his fist album to his latest and after my 10th listen (every listen the album gets better which is crazy) I fully understand what he was trying to do and he did, he delivered exactly what he said he was going to and he did it for the true fans, making this a literal masterpiece and a 10/10. So If you come on here saying “oh I’ve heard this before it’s nothing new” no shit he was literally giving us every era of himself and it’s perfect: idk wtf you clowns were thinking🤡 like you expecting drake to all of a sudden drop a country album? Lmaoo. Also any of you lame ass dudes that try to say Donda > CLB are you mentally not all there? CLB crushed Donda so hard it’s laughable to the point where all of the Donda fans couldn’t even enjoy that album and just stopped listening when drake dropped to go on every platform you could to hate on drake🤡 cuz you jealous? Y’all were mad hype saying Kanye just broke the records and has the best numbers of 2021!!! The the real goat drops and puts that shit to same, the numbers just came out for first week and Donda did 126k while CLB went certified gold and hit 603k😭 Donda ain’t even do what a 2 song project scary hours 2 drake put out earlier this year💀 all of y’all hold your L

    As someone who’s never really listened to an entire Drake album (and didn’t get through CLB), though has known of Drake’s music since before “So Far Gone,” I was surprised at how many Drake tracks I knew when I sat down to count them (in the 40s; probably due to being Canadian lol).
    But I think what’s more interesting with this project, funnily enough, is the two most successful artists with commercial longevity of the 2010s, both Drake and Taylor, both had their carefully PR-crafted personas “exposed” by people associated with Kanye West. The difference is while Taylor has demonstrated growth and maturity in her sound, lyrics, and storytelling in the years since Kim Kardashian released that infamous phone call, Drake hasn’t really displayed the same since Pusha T released “The Story of Adidon” despite being a father and being in his mid-30s.
    As a case in point, Taylor initially tried to portrayed herself as the victim during her Grammy speech with her faux-outrage at “people (Kanye) trying to take credit for your success” (Tori Kelly’s facial expression during the speech was priceless) then attempted to lean into a villain role that felt forced with “reputation” (which many critics describe[d] as her weakest output). Instead of doubling down, she decided to release “Lover” with the standout tracks “The Archer” and “Daylight” where she kind of steps back into herself and then, of course, the outstanding “folkmore” projects where she’s cursing and making emotionally and thematically complex songs that see her formally bidding goodbye to those early innocent country music girl songs that previously defined her career.
    Drake, on the other hand, hasn’t really demonstrated a similar growth pattern despite being a man in his mid-30s and a father of a young son. I think the ghostwriting allegations, the Pusha T beef, and the rumours of grooming (due to friendships with Billie Eilish, Millie Bobbie Brown, Gorja Smith, Hailey Bieber, etc.) has really impacted how he’s been perceived; chipping away at that more pristine image from the start of his career when people used to view him as a middle-class, Canadian, half-Jewish happy rapper that you could being home to momma when he first started out (the fact that he allegedly wrote “I only love my bed and my momma, I’m sorry” when his son was already born is a case in point).
    Apparently, the ESPN reporter (and former hip hop music journo) Bomani Jones said back in 2016 that Drake (at that time 30) was hampered by still making the same music he was making as a young 20-year old (being in the club, etc.). To quote Drake, “Five years later, how is he (that) man still.”
    Drake knows he can roll out of bed and kill it in the charts. But at least song like “What’s Next” are fun and have blare it out of your car playability. This album, especially after listening to “Donda,” didn’t even merit a full listen from me.

How can he not see this? He is so lacking in honest or real self awareness it is actually upsetting. He comes across to me as a not very decent person. Karma is a real thing. It’s a basic as if you act shallow, people around you will treat you as shallow. That’s almost too simple, right? So how can Drake not see it? Maddeningly frustrating. That’s my thoughts on Drake.

    38:25 To comment on your thoughts about him as a culture vulture, as someone who is extremely mixed race lol and has grown up knowing all sides of his family, Drake does not have the same experience. He lived with his white mother while not wealthy, while they were wealthy and when he was on television and beginning of his career(I dont know specifically when to be fair). His black father was seemingly not present in major ways but I do not know his full history so correct me on that. His black side would also be African Canadian which is very different to African American. He never was apart of their culture and him copying their style just to create wealth and discarding it once it does not serve him, would indeed make him a culture vulture. Just because someone is mixed does not mean they have a pass, race contributes a-lot but community and culture is primary.

      They have always had a funny relationship. They beef then make up and repeat it again. It’s odd

    The execs with the ultimate power use Drake to normalize illegal and inappropriate behavior with minors. It looks like it might have been successful

      The execs have been doing that since before Drake. You can’t name one exec outside of Lucian and that’s only cause Kanye told us about him. So focused on the spotlight instead of the shadowy villains in the background who own it all.

    I don’t understand the concept of having to praise someone for being able to making low information lazy hits. There’s really nothing positive that comes from that especially how it has influenced our younger generations.
