Mind you this exactly what I tried to say and he got mad

I just said he don’t even believe all 6 was just trash level cause nobody tuning into 6 consecutive 1/10 level albums from an artist lmao. Just fishing for likes and attention

This is one of the issues with music discourse. Saying an album is trash means there's nothing redeemable about it and there's nothing worth listening to on it. This is never the case with Drake albums. Even projects anyone would consider his absolute worst are projects you can still take 8-10 songs from that you'd keep returning to so how exactly are his albums trash?

I'd respect critiques like this if people just said they'd outgrown his content. That's a more valid take than saying dude hasn't made good music since 2016 because that's just a blatant lie.

This is the real reason why they're in here acting like they give a f*** about Elkan not being given a feature credit (dude isn't even an artist. He's a producer and these are all things that get ironed out before an album is released. He's credited as a co-writer/sole producer and is credited with providing additional vocals on Nokia).

Every single time Elkan or his manager have posted about Nokia post-$$$4U's release, it's been to praise and thank Drake but a random, faceless nobody on KTT2 would have you believe that Drake is a thief for his actions or that he f***ed someone over.

Mind you, Elkan's manager already confirmed that Drake co-wrote the second part of Elkan's hook with him and that the idea to structure the song the way it is now and to keep Elkan's original vocals and have him record more vocals on the track were all Drake's idea. And why are people acting like Drake himself didn't write and perform two entire verses on that song as well as add in a response to Elkan's second hook (which was itself co-written by Drake)?

The reality is that Nokia, the way it is now, wouldn't be what it is without Drake's numerous contributions. Anyone mad about that is a miserable sack of s***. Imagine being this down bad because Drake has a massive solo hit in 2025?

I'll admit I love Drake's older albums but CLB and especially FATD are trash. Scorpion got hits but the bloat drags it down to an overall mid album

If you compare his albums this decade (Her Loss, CLB, FATD) to last decade (TC, NWTS, IYRTITL) it's not even close. Not sure why you'd get upset about someone saying he's been dropping duds, it's pretty much the unanimous consensus. Reply with numbers if you want, you can't tell me with a straight face he was making better music on CLB/FATD than TC/NWTS because those albums sold better

It was a loosie that isn't even on a Drake project, no music video, no promo and somehow has 400m streams just on Spotify

That is a hit.

In fact if you make a list of the most streamed loosies of the decade so far, I bet that'll be top 3 across ALL genres. Solely based on that, it's a hit. It's not a smash hit, but it's a hit

Kendrick - Not Like Us
Bad Bunny - Yonaguni
Travis Scott - Highest In The Room

All loosies with over a billion streams. It’s not even close to being top 3 tbh.

Champagne Poetry
Papi's Home okay but too short and Nicki ruins it with her waffling
Fair Trade
TSU (pointless intro that goes on too long a skip tho)
N 2 Deep
Pipe Down
No Friends in the Industry
Race My Mind

Can't speak on F***ing Fans and The Remorse because I can never get that far before turning this s*** off

8 good tracks out of 19 on an album with a runtime of +/- an hour and 15 mins is definitely trash imo. But I guess we just have different standards
