Drake - Honestly, Nevermind (Discussion Thread)

[jadillac]

I knew brain washing was real when people were legit praising his vocals on Scorpion side B

In his lane, a few of those records on Scorpion he really fit into the pocket bc those songs seemed like his own experiences. "Jaded" "Finesse", those songs are fine the way they are. Sure if Tank was singing they'd sound better but they're fine as is.

Let me ask you this though: what would it say about House Music and the musicians that make it if Drake could randomly drop a flawless House album? Same thing in reverse, imagine if David Guetta dropped Illmatic 2 tomorrow, what would that say about rap? When Lil Wayne dropped Rebirth, while it was basura and got rightfully trashed, it wasn't getting ripped for not being Nirvana's Nevermind, nobody expected a rapper to make a great rock album

Great opinion.

That is what makes his insistence on trying to sing on those songs so perplexing. He should have been rapping his ass off on those house songs as verses, and then sung a catchy chorus in a range suitable to his voice to break up up all of the monotony of those songs. He could have even done that melodious sing-rapping thing, but he tried to give high notes etcetera with struggle vocals. Even Beyonce is rapping on her house song and threw Big Freedia on to not make the song appear monotonous, but the supposed best "rapper" in the game ain't rapping. I guarantee you that Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Childish Gambino etcetera would go off on a house song and then have another person sing a nice hook. Well, Childish Gambino would probably sing his own since he can actually really sing. People have been rapping on house beats since the 90s, but he oped to give an album of just straight up caterwauling and warbling

My G, I actually agree with a lot of what you've been saying in here, but you've spent more time talking about this album in the last 5 days then apparently spent making it. You should probably take a few days off and recuperate

Fantano gave him the “NOT GOOD” stamp

This album might not be for everybody, but on the list of who it was specifically NOT made for, that goofy CAC was #1.

 

[Yecht]

Y’all just now admitting drake is a bad singer, don’t know how he’s been getting singing passes for 13 years…

Also for the last 13 years he's actually been trying to sing, aka hitting notes and shyt, on all his albums. But they want to complain about his singing ability on a dance record. You can't make this shyt up

 

[Yecht]

Looks like he’s only gonna do 210,000
Monumental, historical flop

For comparison purposes, how'd that last Mobb Deep record do? Maybe this will refresh your memory

49th on the charts when there wasn't but 9 musicians alive

Classic album
The Mobb went out on a high point.
New Prodigy album next month.

This is one of those albums where Drake shouldve dropped it with a video for every song.

Yeah all of his videos been memes lately.

He doesn't do that cinematic shyt anymore like he did for Hold On or Find Your Love, but this is the perfect album for that shyt.

I feel like it wouldve helped more people take in this type of music too.

Jimmy Cooks 2/5 - boring....RIP Kay Slay

Ok that's my unbiased review comparing Drake to Drake

Looks like I get 4-5 songs for the workout playlist so that's a win for me

 

[Drake's Tan]

I went to a house party on Friday, and not 1 drake song was played from this album….

Monumental flop

I know the Coli hates on everything, especially popular shyt. But this album is getting a lot of hate universally right now.

Maybe sentiments will change in a few weeks, or maybe after a wild summer.

But for the moment, the Coli actually is aligned with much of the public sentiment on this one.

 

[Drake's Tan]

That Beyoncé song is generic af compared to anything on this project.

Beyoncé song sounds like a leftover from that terrible lion king soundtrack

In his lane?! yeah keep giving him passes for woeful singing
