Drake - Scorpion (Discussion Thread)

[Stone]

The Drake/40/Boi-1da connection has gotten stale imo.

The best songs on side A are the ones that they didn’t produce

 

[Paper Boi]

this reminds me of when 50 cent dropped an album in like 2013. shyt sounds dated the moment it came out. damn.

Wow this thread is already 55+ pages...

I’d be interested in your take on this album. @tuckdog as well.
@ISO for a young gz perspective :prodigylol:

I wasn't able to post that week.

That DJ paul beat was sooooo bad. He should have just cleared a Three 6 sample and let someone else do the beat.

 

[King Jove]

Did he actually say that shyt?

yeah on nonstop.

i don't know how drake gets away with this shyt.

 

[Paper Boi]

remember when this 40 guy used to make hits? tick. tick. tick.

 

[Apollo Creed]

Gonna give this a more detailed spin today. He could have easily reduced this down to 12-14 tracks and had a DAMN GOOD album, but clearly he is trying to run a numbers game.

How much jamaican/uk talk is on this album?

 

[DapMeUp!]

In all if you thought god's plan was great you will love this album.

I never really thought it was special, but it took off crazy. For me it was just a meh ok single and that's how I feel about the whole project.
It sits in the Views/More Life tier of Albums for me.
This possibly feels worse because that's a run of 3 Albums he's given us more of the same, so by the time I have listened to this I just feel jaded.

There isn't even one standout song I want to revisit. I'm just listening through a second time to see if I missed something.

Edit:- After Dark is probably the exception
