    I wholeheartedly disagree with this, that's what really drags it out imo

    Furthest Thing to Started From The Bottom, Wu-Tang Forever to Own It, 305 to Too Much, etc.

    Meanwhile Views is such a smooth and engaging experience, but lacks any noteworthy moment

    It's also why Take Care is my favorite Drake project, it includes the positive qualities of both sides of the spectrum and mold it into a musical simp masterpiece :mjcry:

    Production wise it was so different from TC. The 1st listen for me was pretty underwhelming but it got better and better every time I put it on.
    Putting any Drake project on ice for 4 months though :nahgirl:

    Yeah Chad doesn't see why this is being labeled as cohesive. Sonically it all has a similar vibe but it's not like a story links the whole album together. It doesn't have to do that to be a good album though. If someone asked Chad Warden why he likes Drake, he'd probably say check out NWTS because it's a showcase of his abilites. Like Poohdini said that kinda holds him back from creating that hip hop classic. Take Care is a classic to me for example but it's hard to say where it's s classic is it a pop rap classic, a contemporary r&b classic, it's not in one single lane. NWTS has the same problem. It does feature a nice bit of rapping though.
