    The Moon Man Out of my mind

    May 22, 2015
    Drakes been on a decline since Take Care, there's no denying that but as the title asks, is Drake now trying to hard?

    The latest rap songs Drake has released feel forced, it seems to me that he is trying so hard and the natural feel Take Care had is long gone. Drake seems desperate to be a fully fledged rap artist when in fact I believe his strengths are in the softer songs accompanied by or only including singing Drake.

    Am I the only one who thinks this?

    He has been on a slight decline since peaking on Take Care. He has played it relatively safe. He knows what people want. I think VFT6 will see him switch up his style. I don't think he trys too hard though. He knows what sells and has been running the game for 3+ years.

    Drake has been on the rise since Take Care... People hate him and love him at the same time. That's what makes him so controversial.

    When Drake first came out I thought he was gonna be terrible because of the Degrassi thing and you loved him. Then I started getting into him and now I love him and you don't. I don't know what I'm doing with my life anymore guys

    That's your opinion tho. That still doesn't take away his hype.

    I'm not saying he's a bad artist at all but I think he can do better than what he had been releasing! Can I I'd terrible but those two other leaks are straight fire! Maybe views is going to be better than I thought
