    Take Care is a much better album, NWTS is safe and boring

    Yeah, I've been feeling like that lately too. NWTS has only continued to get better with time.

    I'd be lying if I said I wasn't amongst those who was disappointed with departure from the sound he ran with on Take Care initially. But as time passed, you start to appreciate how well crafted/well balanced NWTS is. Yes NWTS has 305 to My City, but Take Care had it's share of air balls as well. Neither of the two are perfect albums.

    NTWS is slightly better than Take Care.

    I understand that it is an unpopular opinion, and when NWTS originally dropped, I never would have felt this way, but somehow NWTS aged like a fine wine and I truly believe it to be superior to Take Care.
    While I personally enjoy Take Care more to listen to, I think NWTS is a more calculated and precise album, and it doesn't feel as bloated as Take Care does at times.
    I also think that the features on Take Care hurt the overall quality of the album (Nicki's verse, Wayne, 2 Chainz, etc). Granted the Jay-Z verse isn't great, but I don't think his feature hurts the overall quality of the album, and I actually think that Drake out-rapping Jay on his album showed the world where Drake truly was in the Hip-Hop world. He was at the top of his game and he knew it and rapped like he knew it.
    Again, I enjoy Take Care better, but I just think NWTS sounds a bit more polished and mature. I know it's an unpopular opinion and I'll probably take some hate for it, but oh well. I absolutely love both albums, but just think NWTS is slightly better. Thoughts?
