    When I heard those songs listed above, I knew they were amazing on first or second listen. I'm not getting the same feeling here on 80% of the material.
    It's a good analysis.

    To each its own.

    But I'm still counting 11 songs you consider God tier/classic :banderas:

    Which is a testament of Drake's creative run from 2011-2015

    Mob Ties feels refreshing, can't think of too many other Drake songs that sound like it.

    Yeah, I read that list and realized I'd have to be the fearless minority here by affirming that only maybe half that list of Drake songs is actually as good as his aficionados make them out to be. Legend, for example, would be absolutely nothing without PartyNextDoor's So Anxious-sampling beat (Arguable highlight of the whole project.) and Worst Behavior is criminally-overrated, for a few reasons. Already mentioned why I've never been impressed with Pound Cake, either. Thank God Jay and Drake don't spit that lame garbage on here.

    You mother f---er. I’m off work now on the way back to the concrete plant to drop s--- off and when I get back home you and you’re buddy @Worm are both going down. I thought I ran u off. I’ve been drinking after work already too. Be ready.

    It’ll be after 230 when I’m back to finish the war

    It’s already under my seat. Don’t worry about that. I’ve been thinking of s--- the last few days to get u goofs back. Give me a full hr until I have my meds.

    Anyways, giving the album another play. Emotionless is a good song. Survival was good. I’m f---ing with mob ties too. I’ll give the 2nd half another listen on the way back but really enjoyed jaded earlier. Talk up still a fire song after giving it another listen.

    Not a fan of the part on Summer Games where "breaking my heart" speeds up and loops, kills the vibe and makes me want to skip it

    Didn't read pages 54 - 69 yet, but before that it was all Drizzy haters. Are they gone yet?

    The first half was flames (except for I'm Upset but it's growing on me) Glad I listened before coming here. I'm genuinely surprised.
