    Lets think about this for a minute guys. Everything he touched turn to gold. 2011 was the year when the dude became my favourite artist. He released a classic 10/10 album in Take Care, its unreal how many great songs are on there. Not to mention all of the countless features and random gems he dropped like it was nothing. Take a look at this people:












    I'm probably forgetting more, but that is a massive stash of quality music in the space of 12 months. This Drake was amazing, and I don't think he can ever get back to that level if I'm honest. Oh and I would have given my left nut for a Weeknd x Drake collab album back then. What do you guys think? @DrakeSXN

    Take Care is a 10/10 classic?

    If that's the case, Chad Warden doesn't feel bad about calling Teflon Don a classic.

    I mean right now I would say he already passed that yr. I mean If Your Reading This It's Too Late and his singles are all better than Take Care and the features you mentioned. If Views is as good or better than IYRTITL then God help us all

    Kinda, but I don't think he has enough in him creativity wise. He's no Kanye, and his subject matter is already getting old. I know he dabbles in different flows and voices now (IYRTITL), personally I much prefer his Take Care style. I do still like current Drake though.

    I actually think it might be an age thing. When Take Care dropped I was 17, the age where I started drinking, smoking and partying & s---. So there's a lot of memories attached to that time phase. I'm guessing some of you guys were a lot younger in 2011, like between the ages of 11-14 lol.

    This is tough. I have a lot of nostalgia tied to all the music from that year. If you break it down, TC & his freebies from 2011 are better than IYRTITL and the free tracks from 2015. His output has been much greater this year, but for me, the quality of 2011 >>> the output of 2015. I didn't think Kanye would drop anything better than CD & LR and we got MBDTF, so I won't say it's impossible for him to top it, I just don't think this is the year unless the Future tape & Views are near classics.
