    I'm liking the clubbin' dance vibes on it. Enjoying more than I thought. Obviously you never want to preview an album but hearing that most of them were more slower vibes was kind of a buzzkill for me. But they're good so far. Track 7 (Blem) got me vibing :nahgirl:

    He went from a slower emotional style (Thank Me Later, Take Care) To braggadocious (NWTS, IYRTITL) then back to slower emo (Views) and kind of clubbin' slower now.

    i have a hard time with narrowing it down, which just speaks to how well he really did i guess but if i had to pick:

    1. sacrifices
    2. passionfruit
    3. blem
    4. 4422 + gyalchester (2 parts of the same song)
    5. madiba riddim

    or can't have everything, or lose you. i don't even know man, i ranked them an hour ago and it was way different. this is a good project

    Nice, I'm excited. Really surprised to see Weeknd is not on this though. Everything was pointing to it, really.

    he definitely could have taken party's place. would have been more special considering we have a million and one party and drake collabs in recent years.

    but it's only a matter of time until something does drop.

    I'm trying not to hate, but in my opinion I don't like the slow/emotional drake. I'm in the minority when I say I would rather just hear him spit over trap beats. To each their own though!! I hope y'all enjoy it!

    Same, I like club anthem drizzy. Though, I'm not minding this. I will listen to it more than Views I believe. I only took 9, Controlla and One Dance off Views for my Drakes Fave list. Back to back and For Free bangers, that's the club anthem drizzy I like :sweatt:.

    I honestly say I listened to views in its entirety once and haven't listened to it since. Wasn't my style. Definitely enjoy some of his other stuff though!

    I'm on track 11 right now, I want to finish t but getting tired. It doesn't seem long which is nice. I felt Views overall felt a bit long winded. However, I am only halfway through so I shouldn't make a decision just yet.

    Really like it but not feeling the Giggs and Skepta features. Drake seems to be pandering to the uk fans pretty hard. Guess grime just aint for me

    i think this is a pretty good example of how toronto's more diverse sounds (so sounds outside of the ones made popular by drake and weeknd) and UK's music scene can live in harmony.

    the most "american" sounding record is the travis and quavo one, and it sticks out like a sore thumb.

    i agree that skepta interlude is a bit much, but both giggs songs would be highlights in a lot of people's rankings. i think the more you live with this album the more it'll grow on you

    Views
    IYTITL
    So Far Gone
    Thank Me Later

    Views/IYTITL are really close tbh. Could flip flop. Depending how More Life ages, could surpass Take Care but I'm not banking on all of these tracks to age like fine wine.
