    If they choose to keep the tracklist the same, they should do at least one or two more run-throughs of ironing mixes/vocals out like this, and it'll end up as an 8/10 album with gems that rival 2013-2015 era tracks.

    Yup, exactly; this update elevated the R&B songs on this to classic level

    Vocals/mixing are finally close to pre-IYRTITL, he just needs to replace the gimmick & conversational songs on here with actual rapping tracks and it's a classic

    Is Drew A Picasso or Polar Opposites any different?

    Glad I wasn't tweaking

    Now I'm curious which tracks you would categorise as gimmick/conversational?

    Gently -> Another Late Night

    Gimmick tracks

    First Person Shooter, Fear Of Heights, Drew A Picasso, 7969 Santa, 8AM in Charlotte

    Genuinely underwhelming and boring tracks when he raps over those beats with those flows (the stereotypical cringe "trap" flow and his monotonous new "storytelling" flow)

    Drew A Picasso sounds louder, that's it

    I don't remember if the piano on Polar Opposites was there before or if the kicks were that heavy, but I barely listened to it before so grain of salt that

    Maybe slightly less autotune on the latter too

    Agreed on the gently to another late night run. I could do without those, although I enjoy them a lot more after the update.

    Personally, I love 8am, picasso, 7969, but I see your point with those.

    Absolutely agree with the "trap" flow though. Wish he used the 2013-15 faster rap flow and beat choice (5am, wu-tang/the motion verses, the language, versace, believe me etc.) more again in place of the trap tracks. That's why I really enjoy WWPD, need more tracks like that.

    Yeah, WWPD is just a good record and doesn't rely on the flow tropes that he employs on the other songs

    8AM/Picasso/7969 aren't bad tracks by any means but considering they represent a large portion of the rap on the album, it's just underwhelming compared to his older work

    The songs you mentioned are when he was actually tearing s*** up rap-wise

  • yesac

    on the second last time the hook plays Sexyyy Red is censored while saying ass the first time, but the rest of the hook is the same lol

    I would enjoy it if it was intentional, but I'm not sure it is

    I thought I was tripping the first 2 times I heard it lmao

    Anyone re-download it on iTunes to see if it's updated there or is this Streaming only?​

    I love Drake’s part in the first half, but as soon as the girl starts talking I just skip the song tbh

    Yeah, think hearing the first verse verse updated just made the second one sound worse than before in comparison

    I’m the second verse at 3:14 you can hear that they switch back to the old vocal/mix . Weird

  • Oct 19, 2023

    Am I tripping or does Drakes second verse on Slime You Out sound different now?

    Wow they killed IDGAF

    honestly hate kanye for introducing the unfinished album that gets updated later type of release

    why couldn’t they just wait another week or two
    until they got the mix perfect before releasing

    esp for someone like drake who could pushback his album 5x till next year and still have the biggest rap record on the charts

    I actually think it bridges the Drake and 21 verses perfectly. Puts you into that demonic ass savage energy wanting to tell that girl off

  • Oct 19, 2023

    I wish all artists would just leave the work as is after released, I get it’s temping to go back & edit especially with how easy it is to upload a new file to streaming, but still
