Apr 18, 2017 honestly this is what i wanted from kendrick tho. i wanted to hear the best rapper alive actually try to be the best rapper alive for a whole project and that's what d--- is to me. he can make his yeezus or 808s now lol
Apr 18, 2017 Holy Molly, even the videoclip is a rip-off... beard.... I thought it was a Drake song with a higher pitch to stop YouTube from taking it down lol
Apr 18, 2017 good read. I don't think this album is that good at all, especially compared to his last two major releases But the one thing I like about Kendrick is he has good subject matter and he avoids sounding like other rappers. Too many rappers nowadays sound the same, but he's not one of them
Apr 18, 2017 I guess for me, 'Love' didn't scream Drake when I heard it the way 'Still Here' screamed Chief Keef for me, from the repetition and cadence of the chorus down to the Young Chop-type synths. But I agree, I don't think he loses points for making Still Here -- the sing-songy flow on the verses are 100% Drake. It's probs my favorite song on Views. I think people have more of an issue with Drake making songs like that because he wants to be a part of every wave and sound -- which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it can definitely come across as try-hard or annoying. Personally I think it's cool that he big ups lesser known artists, whether it be hoping on the Versace remix (it's true Versace had already blown up, but this was the first time I heard people outside of the internet talk about Migos) or putting on Grime artists on More Life. It's mutually beneficial.
Apr 18, 2017 Anyway score is probably about accurate, I thought the review itself was kinda boring though.
Apr 18, 2017 oh yeah totally, he's completely copied drake's formula if drake made 'hold on we're going home' tracks constantly, there would be no need for tiller except he's stuck in this rapping/singing mode simp drake would make a 10/10 album
Apr 18, 2017 My favorite Drake is the drake that effortlessly goes back and forth between rapping and singing, but I would like to see how an album that is 100% him singing would turn out.
