I can't lie I think there's some interesting shyt on here. At least it's a little different from what he's been doing, and it's mercifully shorter than his usual near 90 minute shyts.

I listen to a lot of electronic music so i have no problem with the sound, although this is far from some high level house music, i still think there's some nice production on here. a bunch of mid boring shyt too with melodies lacking. there's at least 5-6 keepers on here though and i'm a lot more likely to revisit this than CLB, Scorpion or Views

Yep. Ye is from the Mecca of house. It’s already in his soul and spirit. Drake in the other hand, is a mere leech, so conviction will always be lacking. Ye should make a proper project just to make this Drake album look even worse.


This is what I'm talking about. This is good shyt that doesn't even remotely sound gay. I have no idea how Drake managed to get his shyt to sound so gay bar-ish.

This like Passionfruit but 10 times worse.
How does this man keep making such terrible albums, this is even worse than CLB.
Can we get just one more good rap album from him :sadcam:

The album is largely produced by Black Coffee. Stop it.

And the production sounds pretty terrible. The vocals are atrocious, and the beats are mix of generic EDM from 2016 and Tik Tok remixes. The producer oughta have attempted to make a better impression then. Your taste has to be beyond questionable to attempt to even put his project in the same league as something such as this



He was obviously trying to go for something such as that, but ain’t have an excellent enough producer to make it suitable for the guy. He is really beginning to prove his critics rights, which is pretty astonishing

Then I'll explain it so you get it.

I asked are people saying it's wack because he isn't rapping or is it because it's actually just wack musically. If they say it's wack because he isn't rapping then it makes me consider listening because I enjoy his non-rapping songs way more than him rapping. If they say it's wack because it's just bad then I'm not wasting my time.

You probably listen to hundreds of rap albums every year so to you it's nothing to just listen to whatever...I'm not like that

I have heard possibly four albums of all genres put out this year. If I struggle to get through the first few songs, then I turn it all the way off

Drake has an opportunity to redeem himself.

Get Phonte to executive produce his next album.

I unfairly judged 'Honestly, Nevermind'
It's definitely not great, but it's not trash either... it's lazy, but it's good enough... maybe, but only because of the way dance music is consumed, but not on its own merit.

There's simply better dance music and we have heard it. I'm under the impression that Drake, and/or his team, believes we have only been trappin' & drillin' when in reality we have low key been wrapped up in Black Coffee's & Kaytranada's algorithm for years, which has led us to discover immaculate dance and house music.

'Honestly, Nevermind' is very just ok and I hope it bring popularity to dance and house music within Hip-Hop and R&B production; I want that culture shift, and Drake is the proper artist to do such, but this album isn't scratching the surface of the greatness of dance music... or Drake ability to create dance music.

Kelela 'Take Me A_Part, The Remixes' has plenty of references for good dance music.

drake is from Toronto. yall keep forgetting this.

Its way more of an international mix than yall realize. Thats why he was earlier on the reggae vibes than his peers and helped that resurgence
