Drake - Scorpion (Discussion Thread)

[Terrance Curtis Beasley]

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

a classic example of garbage

We need that colab.

Not to mention he just had Kanye on his last album for "glow".

Drake clearly felt like Kanye had part with Pusha's T diss + he felt like Kanye could have told Pusha to stop.

He did say Kanye is his idol, but Drake is sensitive as hell, he is quick to turn on you over little things.

Album on its entirety is a bore to me. The only track I really rock with is Nonstop. The MJ track is cool. The track with Jay is str8 too. The rest just failed to resonate with me..

Very lazy album

 

[re'up]

at Mob Ties and all the similar lines and songs, "I'ma wig splitter"

I won't be listening to any of that nonsense, despite the very well crafted and put together production. I like the R&B tracks, the Jackson feature, Finesse, a few more. This is fine. Not different from Views or More Life.

Fire Jay verse, that last line, I don't really feel, though I understand the intent....it's a better rap line than an actual ideology.

March 14 is cringeworthy and embarrassing, the singing at the end wow....But, Drake and his team do this so effortlessly it will have parents across the country listening and relating to a VERY first world problem. The beauty of music and art I suppose.

[Pitfalls0117]

Album is overlong and boring as hell. Maybe five repeatable songs on here. Sandra's Rose was cool.

I feel like I've been listening to this shyt for six hours and I've probably got six songs left

 

[Lhark]

After Dark is too good for this album

My top 5:

Blue Tint
After Dark
Elevate
In My Feelings
Talk Up

Album sounds a lot better when you make a playlist without the 6-8 duds on here

 

[KRiLL (+)]

first 3 songs on B Side is had to turn that shyt off...


also has the best verse on the A Side...

 

[Black Magisterialness]

This album is boo-boo

Grey Hova has the best verse on the first side....the B side is better....but not by much Blue Tint is good.

 

[SpacedOutGeek]

Is jaded about that new fine lightskin singer jorja ?

Yep, I selected 9 tracks off there and it's a lot better.

I feel like lowkey this is what we could start seeing.

Artists put out like 30 track albums and then you select the 9-10 tracks you like the most.

So essentially artists become a canvas for "whats hot at the moment". Let's look at Drake for example:

You got: Jamaican Drake, R&B Drake, Braggadocio Drake etc.

Pick and choose which you like the best.
