    One Dance, Controlla to an extent are different types of songs compared to what we have gotten in the past. With rumours that Vybz Kartel potentially on Views it's clear Drake is embracing the dancehall genre more than era. Is anyone happy with this new direction? I really like the the fact he's trying something different and One Dance soty

    I can appreciate an artist that challenges himself to grow and step out his comfort zone. I'm just not a fan of that music.

    Don't like it at all. One dance is good I guess, but I like Drake most when he's introspective like much of nwts or when he brings out feelings like in take care. Sure. Songs like one dance will become straight hits, but it just seems so basic and lazy. Can do without them :idk:

    The OG beat is boring and bland
    The OG verse is meh/bad
    The Extended verse is.. alright but still isn't great.

    They like Pabloooo

    Drake's a smart guy. He's about that bread...can't knock him for that. I'm just ready for views already. The 29th can't come soon enough.

    Shout out to Rammy though. It's clear Drake got a lot of influence from him.

    Yes and no. I like that he's experimenting and stepping out of his comfort zone but don't want this becoming his 'sound', even though One Dance & Controlla are really good.

    I like him experimenting, but Drake is at his finest when he's on his NWTS Drake (though parts of IYRT Drake are real nice too).

    I'd rather he leave it to Major Lazer as far as that lane goes, it's cool but it's just not resonating with me like his music usually does.

    I don't mind what direction Drake goes in, as long as he makes good music.
