    Views regressed in terms of Bars.

    Musically, 40 did his thing with production.

    When the beat switches :sweatt:

    I wish he would've kept rapping over that beat. Regardless, Controlla is my summer anthem.

    I guess that's why he changed the album name to just VIEWS instead of VFT6

    I am abstaining from anointing it either classic, trash bin worthy, or something in between for this reason.

    Definitely some skippable tracks on here, but overall a really solid album.

    I feel like 'Views' should have been the intro, not the outro

    So after my first spin this is what i think:
    - Its too long, too many songs
    - Reminds me of Take Care alittle, just weaker
    - Feel no Ways, Hype, Controlla, One Dance, Too Good, Summers over interlude and Views are the best songs right now.

    It can grow on me but will not go past NWTS as drakes best album for me

    I'm gonna sound like @Head Bussa on this one but Cole is really in prime position to drop some heat and carve out some more real estate for himself. Drake and Kendrick kind of abandoning traditional rap (snares, 808s and looped samples). Don't know where Cole is going with the next one but I doubt it'll be too far left

    Cole will never do any project that isn't 80% sampled, so you can bet he's sticking to what he has been doing his whole career.
