    imagine More Life

    Free Smoke
    Gyalchester
    Portland
    Sacrifices
    Blem
    Madiba Riddim
    Fake Love
    Passionfruit
    Get It Together
    Teenage Fever
    Cant Have Everything
    Glow
    Do Not Distrurb

    and I'm probably even cutting a lot of good songs, maybe some peoples favourites such as both Giggs collabs ...

    and you could probably do the same with views

    but thats Drake's appeal is he does it all, a song which I don't like could be someone else favourite

    he's doing it right as far as I'm concerned

    In his interview with Semtex he said he thought about cutting most of the rap off of Views. Tracklist would've looked something like this

    1. 9
    2. U With Me
    3. Feel No Wayz
    4. Weston Road Flows
    5. Redemtpion
    6. With You
    7. Faithful
    8. Still Here
    9. Controlla
    10. One Dance
    11. Childs Play
    12. Too Good
    13. Summers Over Interlude
    14. Fire & Desire
    15. HLB
    Much more cohesive than what the finished product was.

    really :khaled:

    personally what i would have done is just broken up the weston road flows to faithful run ... i like all those songs and don't think i would have cut them but just think having them all in a row gets a bit too subdued

    Its seems funny, but that's really a possibility. At the last show we're the ones of few who we're really hyped. Others just chilled, f----- that. There was that one drunk guy that tried to talk to me about how is it that I know all the Cole lyrics, but couldn't figure out his body language at first, I thought he was gonna fight me. So yeah, we probably die there.

    Yeah that was just me taking most of the raps out and leaving everything else intact. I'm sure with a few more tweaks it'd be even better.

    I agree though I like Views. Calling it Views set the expectations too high. He announced that almost right after NWTS and the project we got is so different than what it started out as back in 2014.

    Nah I'm telling you IB was like you gotta stop killing your own rappers on their songs. So he won't be featured with another dreamville rapper ever again.

    like i said tho not really feeling Heart Part 4

    anyone else not really down with how kendrick is trying to start another beef with subliminal shots ...

    i thought he was above that, he should be above that, he doest need that with the position he is in now ... he should just be focussing on making good quality music ...

    especially since to p---- a butterfly and his interviews since then he been preaching how the music should be about bigger issues and trying to make a change in the world

    so on that front i f--- with cole and what he did with 4 your eyes only

    then again even he had false prophets and everybody dies before the album LMAO almost forgot about that ... what is it with rappers and having to diss people to build hype before dropping a project

    I think it's more of this idea of taking claim, and reminding people that they are better.

    Like if Kenny really made this in 2 days its all shots at Drake and the wave his fans and the industry has him on.

    The way I see it.. Kenny is just out to prove he is still the best, it's gonna be a crazy album... I can just see him going back to his roots and giving us that classic Kenny we all want..
