    Take Care was well received. People weren’t calling it a classic until after Views dropped though. It was like overnight, because Views was hyped up so much, (amazing marketing), it didn’t live up to the hype a lot of people. People started saying Will Drake ever have a classic and boom next day you know Take Care is Drake’s classic because people felt he wouldn’t be able to make one.

    According to Metacritic, Take Care was the ninth-highest-ranked album in year-end top 10 lists by music critics, based on 135 lists.

    Didnt say it wasnt. But notice, I said I still listened in spite of it.

    Any CRAZY big artist will attract hate, hell lot of new kendrick fans is hate.

    Drake weathering the storm to be the next lineage in the Pharrell, kanye lifeline was what was supposed to happen.

    No coincidence since IYRTITL (which yea, marked a change but still had classics like Jungle) that there began to be a shift (imo, was slow cause Views was very successful)

    Yeah, idc bout none of that. My only point was a lot of that was hate and envy from the jump

    Whether whomever listens is not a factor because of you're already susceptible to those aforementioned emotions you probably only listening because it's the popular thing

    This not even putting the cape but Take Care’s classic status has 100% been contested in all discourse around it until like COVID tbh

    ill admit i probably listened to tc in its entirety probably like 2 times

    The thing for me with TC is that back then he sounded a bit like Lil Wayne and I like his voice since Views more.

    If he rerecords Take Care now it might sound even better to me

    “Is it or is it not a classic” was the biggest convo around Take Care. Mfs refused to give it to it and we all just somehow forgot that

    Naw you a lie he had some critics that enjoyed it but also critics that clowed it as well all in all it wasn’t perceived well as most folks try to revert back to saying I want that Drake back

    That’s his 4th highest ranked album on metacritic

    I think after IYRTITL the expectations on how the album should sound like in the ears of the people where just never really met again.

    you probably only listening because it's the popular thing

    That’s how popularity works tho for any artist.

    Like I said, mobster Drake being here due to memes only proof drake really is soft
