Drake - Scorpion (Discussion Thread)

[A B O V E]

The production on this album is CRAZY

Hov verse on talk up

Nonstop got my car speakers begging for mercy

Side B is kind of trash compared to side A but i feel like this album kept me entertained and that's really all that matters at the end of the day.


Im feeling a hard 7 to a light 8 on this one

If somebody shot you and I say the nikka that shot you still walking around how would u take that? As a statement against black on black crime? lmao

Then why the mental gymnastics when Jay z says it

What? I really don’t understand what you are trying to say.
If I say you dudes killed this black kid but racists that kill black kids because they are black walk around in peace, streets is done.

Is that telling law abiding black people to kill Zimmerman or is it questioning the realness of street dudes?

Did he say he only met his son one time ??? and that was for Christmas...

I’m not emotionally invested in the Drake/Pusha shyt but I dnt get why Drake said that he only met his son once . It’s a lot of deadbeats in the world so I’m nit hung up on that I just dnt see the point of saying it..

Maybe I just heard wrong

Music is subjective breh. Some people gonna like this shyt and some gonna hate it. The only true loss for this album would be a sales flop and why even bring up sales with Drake? Even if it did flop you wouldn't find out tonight. If the overall opinion of the album is that it's trash that consensus won't be in the mainstream until at least this afternoon. So again, why stay up for a Drake album release and subsequent discussion? He took his major L a few weeks back. We all bore witness to that. He already had his 18-1 moment.

I’m in a different time zone this shyt dropped when I woke up for work.

I wanted to hear his response but he copped pleas.

I’ll wait for Apple to spam my top rap/r&b playlist to find a song I like.

 

[NSSVO]

great, great record. he's going double

 

[A B O V E]

That boyz 2 men ending on March 14 is some of the most “I’m the victim/feel sorry for me” I ever heard


He spent rapping about how sad is was he had to man up to take of his kid and he had to come to grips with it








Then the ending



Nooooone to guideeeee me

I’m all aloneeeeee

No one to cry onnnnnnn

I need shelter from the raaaaaaain

To easeee the paaaaaain

From changing from boy to maaaannnnn

I honestly feel like this was one of the best songs on side b

I got an empty crib in my empty crib

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

Emotionless is easily the best joint on this album. Very good album btw.

 

[CarltonJunior]

This is very whatever. Drake chasing soundsbin this disposable era has lead to him making some very disposable music.

And someone needs to be shot for putting MJ's voice through autotune.

That's sacrilege.

That felt like a calculated decision to make Drake not sound as bad in comparison.

Sampling is harder than you think, it was probably done so the voice would blend into the beat better. If they grabbed an entire voice sample that was performed acapella and put it on the beat without doctoring it it would sound completely out of place.

 

[Man]

but you have no problem listening to pusha telling you the same drug stories

Where you get that from?

I gave Push album only a one listen too

If you want my opinion on the two albums based off 1 listens as a comparison - I thought Pusha’s album was better
