    The Moon Man Out of my mind

    May 4, 2016
    It's been under a week and I feel I am over VIEWS. At first I thought it was great, fantastic, possibly classic but I was all caught up in the hype and on the first few listens these songs seemed amazing. That hyped died down and these songs got old very fast and left me with a very small amount of songs that I actually enjoy. Feel no ways is still a good song and controlla has been nice vibe to it but this album is six/ten at a push. Drake really didn't pull through on this album, it should have been more and as I have seen posted, he tried so hard to make a classic, anthem album that he forgot to put songs of high quality on it. I'm still a huge drake fan but waiting years for views from the six and getting this album is so underwhelming and drake needs to stop sounding so lazy and do something outside the box or at least go back to his take care rap style.

    It's too early to call it classic or be over it tbh.

    I enjoyed it for a few days but I have only played one or two songs in the last two days, maybe over it is the wrong wording but the album bores me

    Give it time. I loved NWTS on 1st listen but it kinda faded. It really clicked with me after a week or so and turned into my favorite project from him.

    What's your stand on views right now? There are so many low points on this album with corny lines and same old topic I can't see myself revisiting many of these tracks

    I really really like it. There's 13-15 songs that vary from really good to great. Some of the rest is filler (which doesn't make them bad songs). Honestly I need more time to sit with and compare it to his older stuff to see where it falls in his discog.

    Caught up in the hype, admitted my foolish ways

    That's fair enough, it's a lot to get through and the direction he went in threw me off completely
