Won't even ask you howTurn the 6 upside down, it's a 9
Why are these music critics turning on Drake now?

I haven't read through the thread, but came in to say this. Drake was never a critical favorite. It'd be one thing if he was getting 85 and above for all of his releases on Metacritic, but he hasn't. With this album, it's his fourth one, and he hasn't really shown any growth or done anything that pushed him or the genre forward. He's supposed to be a leader, but he really hasn't done anything ground breaking.
Take Care is the album IMO, where he really came into his own. I think he regressed with Nothing Was The Same because it seemed like he was folding under pressure. It seemed like he was giving into the criticism of him being too soft, so he tried to compensate with "Started From The Bottom" and "Worst Behavior".

Kendrick writes his own raps. They happen to not be bubble gum soft.

Thread//////If Take Care is a 78 - borderline great album the current album being at 69% is fair.
Critics have never turned on Kanye because he's a genius. Sorry brehs. Career average 80 on Metacritic from 9 albums. The lowest of which isn't a proper album.

Don't know what you were expecting because the formula is pretty consistent between all his albums

It doesn't feel the same to me...more melody and singing on this one. Maybe it's just the amount of songs.

That's what yall wanted. More drake. Be careful what you wish for especially from an artist who doesn't have anything else to say.It doesn't feel the same to me...more melody and singing on this one. Maybe it's just the amount of songs.

I'm not a big drake fan like that, I do listen to his stuff and enjoyed his previous albums but this hasn't grown on me.

Im not a Drake fan, and I heard it and think it was trash. But just to be a bit objective-- how tf would an album grow on you in like 3 days???
The whole phrase, "it grew on me" is usually said after repeated listening over weeks or months-
