    All I’m saying is, it’s less common and more shallow than it used to be from him. You named 7 songs from 3 different projects, I can name 7 songs from one of his older albums that are more introspective with more emotional depth than most of those.

    No one’s saying it’s bad, it’s just an observation

    Take Care is more mature than this album lmao.

    I guess people were wanting Drake to drop his 4:44 eventually. They really want Drake to drop all his hoes and get into his dad raps lol

    Would you do it if you were him?

  • Nov 8, 2022

    Some of y’all need to understand that critiquing an artist isn’t a negative thing lmao

    Drake is still one of my favorite artists, that doesn’t mean I can’t point out observations of changes in his output that have happened as his career’s progressed

  • SinceKumbaya

    Tbh honest it’ll only hurt him in this silly online debates. His work put in gonna reap all the benefits and legacy when people look back.

    I disagree

    Exactly.

    And again, that’s not necessarily good or bad, it’s just something to be noticed

    I named 7 songs off the top of my head. Half of Certified Lover Boy is introspective / deep or whatever you wanna label it as.

    Honestly Nevermind was very much honest, introspective, and vulnerable and that came out a couple months ago?

  • Nov 8, 2022

    If Drake wants to be immature and have fun with his music now, that’s fine, I still enjoy it for the most part.

    But to act like he’s as introspective and emotionally resonant as he used to be is ludicrous

    alright, n95, humble, dna, all the stars, btch dont kill my vibe, loyalty etc.

    kendrick def has more made more fun/hit type of songs than drake has made deep/thought-provoking songs so if anything IMO kdot is closer to doing both.

    You’re going quantity

    But I’m talking quality

    I would take Look What You’ve Done and Too Much over u and mortal man

    And also take any drake hit over all of those

    If I wanna cry and be introspective I’d listen to drake

    If I wanna have fun I’d listen to drake

    There’s not a situation I’d go to Kendrick for

    I think this is where Drake spreading himself so thin and being so prolific hurts him.

    Liability off HN will be forgotten. Incredibly introspective
    Champagne poetry is going to be forgotten
    The Remorse is going to be forgotten
    Pipe Down is going to be forgotten
    7AM
    Losses off DLDT

    You can not like the music, but to say that he's stagnant and regressing from a source material perspective is factually just not true. He's still giving the people real life type s*** that go beyond the club and trap slaps.

    I’ll make sure liability doesn’t get forgotten.

    Would you do it if you were him?

    Idk tbh. I do love my hoe phase during college, but I've honestly outgrown it with my different goals in life. I guess if I had money to push those goals aside for 10 more years and have more fun then maybe?

    Half of CLB is nowhere near as emotionally resonant as albums like Take Care and NWTS lmao

    And Honestly Nevermind is more vulnerable than introspective, but then again a lotta those songs are pretty general and not as specific to Drake as his older material is

    I’m not disagreeing with anything you said here.

    My point was just that, as his career has progressed, he’s gotten less and less introspective and emotionally deep with each project he releases.

    There are still moments here and there, but it used to be one of the main factors of his music. That’s not so much the case anymore.

    It’s not necessarily a good or a bad thing, just an observation

    Oooh I get you. Yeah I felt it too at times, the lack of ā€žToo Muchā€ā€™s, ā€žLook What You’ve Doneā€ā€™s even ā€žLose Youā€ā€™s etc. Felt like peeping into his diary back then so it probably was even more relatable. I felt this especially on CLB, his ear for melodies is still godlike, I still enjoy some of those songs for what they are but I totally get what you’re saying. Well, you have to respect the place he’s in right now if you don’t feel it then you just don’t.
