The 808s & Heartbreak tree.

What? No MBDTF?

No HYFR? Or The Motto?

I think he has great production. He's not Nas. But he needs to give 40 and these Super Mario underwater beats a rest. Maybe he can work with Swizz. Can't be melancholy over those referee whistles.

He's a good rapper, had clever wordplay, makes good music. His popularity is valid but he didn't do anything with it. Stagnant.

The funniest thing about this album is his new thing is "I'm pretending to be sad again but this time I'm openly admitting I'm lying". The other thing that kills me is he talks about OVO and Toronto so.much and has not put one rapper on. Where is his Spliff star where is his bleek?

A few songs here or there couldve just been the singles. I'm caping for Take Care but like 80% of of that one one is good.

There's a certain clarity and tone to a lot of that period of rap especially on the east coast that's a bit stylized. Cuz thats how rap was. But yes your voice is your voice.

I mean that resonant tone was more of an affectation than anything and equally cartoonish. Wayne is performance art. Drake is just nasal.

Nah, mostly becuase I know dudes have been sharing bars during studio time since forever. Especially, when it seemed like Quentin was really putting together hooks anyway.

Take Care is a great album and NWTS has some of his best singles. Honestly a ten track album of his guest verses would be pretty good. His one offs and features are great.

It's a good album but if you're a genuine drake fan than it just leaves you missing something.

Take Care is peak Drake.

Larry's problem is that he lacks charisma. If somebody else read his jokes it would've killed.

I love how Larry pulled no punches. Came at Barack a bit even tho he's teflon, slapped up Brian Williams, and ethered Don Lemon.

Colorism is indeed some ish but I think Damon ' s initial "shes the star" analysis rings true.

Lol you can't go against the bevel army. I'm shocked yall don't have Bevel ads already.

Not even. I just want to participate in no shave November one day.

At this rate, I won't have facial hair or lose my head hair until 40 so I'm keeping this important research tagged for a later date.

This confirms that this is some og British talk
