This isn't my favorite from Drake after a few more listens. I judge an album by how many songs I want to come back to and I honestly don't see myself listening to much of this willingly. I really like "Rich Baby Daddy" and "What Would Pluto Do", because it sounds like an extension of Her Loss, but can do without the rest.
I also somewhat agree with @re'up and @CrimsonTider about the Cole verse. He's improved immensely over the years but the verse was cool at best. Although I like the "Charlene, Darlene..." line, it doesn't save Drake from a subpar performance. You're on a song with Cole, RAP nikka! I would've loved if they went back and forth on the second beat.
I like the last verse too. I was judging his performance on the song in its entirety.He wrecked that last verse. That would fit perfect on Her Loss. Cole sometimes is a little bland to me, when he doesn't have a subject, he's just rambling. Office, IT, those were kind of like nerd rapper C level bars. The Drake scheme/flow/beat plus bars was fire. His irritation and contempt came through in all the little lines.
use a grammy like a door stop/will they give me my flowers well of course not

Broken pinky promises fukked up our Bahamas trip

Who tf told him IDGAF was a good idea?
R&B wise he has regressed…bad
Another day sitting with the album and finished up the last few songs. I done played Virginia Beach about 20 times by now, that shyt is classic late night riding Drake
"You bust down the Jubilee, I swapped it and made you go factoryyyyyy, wait
You put some pain in me, I wanna get back to the major leagueeeee
She wanna grab on the throttle, I wanna get back in the driver's seattt
Askin me if I shoulda treated you better but no"
I gotta agree with someone else who said SZA saved that joint with Sexy Redd. Song with Yachty was cool, Away From Home is vintage introspective Drake. FPS and WWPD are still on repeat too. I'm still fukking with this album.
