    It's hard to find more than handful of moments I throughly enjoyed from Drake on this project, but there are definitely certain pockets on various songs that I'm fan of.

    For example I don't f--- with the entire digital dash verse but this:

    I move the game up, I'm reckless
    I’m Harlem shaking through the pressure
    I might put Diddy on my next s---
    I might gone fit you in on Wednesday
    I'm not here for no pretend s---
    Just walked in with a girl that’s making triple what I’m making, what an entrance
    That's when you know its a body
    Zone 6, they know it's a body
    Kirkwood, they know it's a body
    Lil Mexico know it's a body
    Scooter in here with the zombies
    Gucci get out it's a problem
    I might take Quentin to Follies
    You hate your life, just be honest


    :emoji_fire::emoji_fire::emoji_fire:

    (although some jokes could be made re: this part of the verse as well lol)

    That Quentin shoutout :lmaooo:

    Future's entire verse on Live From the Gutter.

    Anything that didn't involve Drake

    The subtle distorted piano at the beginning of "30 For 30 Freestyle" was brilliant. It gave me chills tbh.

    moments on digital dash like

    "I pulled off before they got my dog on murder again
    See the fire come out the a--- on the Lamborghini"


    "I pour the Actavis and pop pills so I can fight the demons"

    basically the entire live from the gutter verse (one of the best of the year):

    "Reporting live from the gutter
    I'll buy these MFers talking big money s--- b----
    Straight up out the gutter, never had s---
    Now we got 90210 on our address
    Talking 10 mill just to get an asset
    I know them tears still falling down on my last b----
    This money made me hungry I'm a savage
    I've seen the stars lining up you couldn't imagine
    I watched my broad give up on me like I'm average
    I went back inside the attic count it up and started laughing, ah
    I went back inside the attic count it up and started laughing, ah
    Cuban links hanging on my wrist I was on welfare
    Wake up in the house I look up, I see bales everywhere
    I see girls everywhere, I see scales everywhere
    I see h--- everywhere,I get mail everywhere
    Walked inside the booth and came out in a Learjet
    A fiend for that lean I ain't started drinking beer yet
    They bust the trap, I live there
    Came out clean, I ain't clean my n----- still there
    Just imagine you was livin' lavish and they still there"

    Jersey might be top 3 overall songs on the album.

    One of my favorite Future verses tbh.

    No love for Drake's I'm The Plug verse?

    I'd give it a spin. Definitely one of his best moments on the tape.
