Drake - Scorpion (Discussion Thread)

[Alfred0Santana]

This shyt sounding super weak....Side B damn near put me to sleep in my car. I gotta listen to Side A again sometime this weekend but didn’t nothing stand out for me besides some beats that sounded nice. The joints I did like on Views and More Life sound better than anything on here.

I give this album a 8/10.


Drake just cemented himself as the greatest rapper of this generation & top 10 of all time.


The album was so good I wasn’t even mad about a pusha response, I’m just glad he left that island/dancehall shyt alone.



The only songs I skipped was the singles lol.

B-Side is up there wit Take Care. Not better but it’s up there.

You must be gone off the meds from the gunshot wound? Lol

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

I thought Side A was pretty good. Immaculate shyt talking, he was spitting, variety of flows, very good production.

Side B (R&B) was kinda slow and dragged. Ratchet Happy Birthday trash. But there’s some great tracks on Side B too. After Dark and Jaded are crazy. Females gonna love Side B.

Good album.

 

[George's Dilemma]

Album is trash.

Give it a 3 out of 10.

People really thought he was taking shots at Kanye with these, clearly he was talking about his women

 

[FunkDoc1112]

It is weird how Drake is so flagrant towards Kanye considering he wouldn't have a career if not for 808s & Heartbreak

ratchet happy birthday might be the worst drake song i ever heard and that's covering a lot of ground.

It is laughably bad, coming from a fan of his too

This.

I never understood why nikkas make long ass albums with a bunch of filler. Give me quality over quantity, any day.

My favorite two albums this year have 8 and 10 songs, respectively.

Because some people like the songs you call filler

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

Scrolling through a few pages...is the overall consensus that this is a classic?

This guy's music hasn't evolved since Take Care. NWTS had some fire on it, but I honestly feel like he's been going through the motions, when it comes to albums, for years now. His formula will always generate atleast a couple hits and he'll go double plat minimum with this, but I found myself zoning out listening to this album. I'm generally against double albums because artists rarely are able to generate enough good to great tracks to warrant them, but Big K.R.I.T just dropped an amazing one at the end of last year. Less is more when it comes to Drake. The themes and topics he raps about aren't varied enough to fill two albums without it all just starting to sound the same.

Pusha T literally dropped a derivate of his first album...but here you come...

Drake delivered a STRONG body of work
