    I feel like most people cite the intro as an example of his vocal performance not living up to the production value tho lol :wow2:

    Controlla through Pop Style is really nice. I'm gonna fix mine when I'm done listening.

    The vocal performance is good, the beats just too big for drake and for what he's doing/capable of doing

    I don't really think the intent was to wow us with his vocals though. He's a very good singer, I think that's just the vibe he was going for.

    I'm good on any tracklist that doesn't have Keep the Family Close

    1. On it
    2. Anywhere but the first track

    It's drakes writing mixed with his limited range. And even if okay he's an above average singer technically, he's still not great at emoting. He has like less than a handful of tricks up his sleeve u kno?

    I f---in hate how copy & pasted some of Drake & Future's tracks sound. So lazy on both their parts.
    He might be limited but he's really good at varying the range he does have.

    Am I missing something? Isn't that widely accepted as one of the worst tracks?

    Top 5-10 in a lot of the lists I've seen. Handful have said it's their favorite track.
