If Drake wants a critically acclaimed return, he needs a Nordic Noir/NORTHERN/CANADA sounding project: Reference GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO inspired

I don't think obscure whiny ambient music is going to help drake.

I can see another joint project with Future doing well but not certain that would save him.

Something that would get a lot of streams and be controversial at the same time would be a project/song with Ye. I doubt they ever collab now that dude is full blown Nazi and Drake is Jewish.

Find Your Love aged well imo. So did Forever.
It doesn’t have to be whiny or ambient…but it has to be Naomi Sharon leaning, not SZA or Summer Walker.

he has to chart a path forward that points towards the north. Thats what he brings to the game. Innovation and direction. He has to lead in a sound, even if he does it alone.

People are chasing too many trends right now.

Being a fan of Drake doesn't make you pathetic.

What makes y'all pathetic is the insane lengths y'all are going for him to get a "Win".
This dude really said to get his spot back Drake needs to start making ambient/industrial music :huh:


one of the wildest statements posted on here :mjlol:
I think Drake’s attachment to Young Thug et al has been one of the biggest mistakes ever. He did TOO MUCH shyt with Future. He didn’t build his own sound for his own region. He needs a definitive sound that reflects The North.

I agree with this premise in general. Not sure about the examples given but embrace the 40 aesthetic again - minimal, sparse, atmospheric production

When he strayed away from that in 2013 and started following trends is when he lost me as a fan

Drake came on the scene with an original sound and voice, and pretty much abandoned it aside from the timestamp records

You're on the right track, Apu. I agree the nordic vibe is definitely the direction he needs to go in. But he needs to go all the way and make some nordic viking metal.



Drizzy will take over the game with this shyt. That shyt would be hotter than vindaloo!

He just need to drop a so far gone style album. He has the bread to get samples cleared. Or a double dose like metropluto n call them so much/taken care of

15 years and those are still his best projects
