Trance is honestly perfect as it is so I feel Metro on not adding Drake to the finished song. Niggas acting like Metro need a Drake verse at this point of his career is hilarious.
Respect Metro even more for sticking to his vision too instead of forcing Drake to fit on the song
It’s not. Only (the Drake section of) KTT believes it is
people i’ve talked to at my job have said it is, i’ve seen twitter folks say it’s a classic, people in college talk about it in high regards ( even heard them say it’s the last time drake hit his peak musically)
but you don’t have to believe me just know i’m comfortable in people in real life who was around at that time saying it’s a classic or peak drake
I still haven’t heard Drake version but I don’t usually care to listen to leaks anymore

People I’ve talked to at my job have said that album was very mediocre, I’ve seen Twitter folks call it overrated, and people at my college talk about it lowly (even heard them say it’s when Drake started to decline musically).
I’m not just sarcastically mirroring your post either, everything I said is true.
I have one close friend who considers it to be an actual classic. Everyone else I’ve talked to in real life about that album either just thinks it’s good or say it’s when Drake started to lose them
There's definitely some underlying energy there cause once Drake version leaked

Most definitely
This s*** is totally normal how much of a groupie you gotta be to hate on Metro for this lol

and people at my college talk about the album highly (even heard many call it a classic album) . I’m not sarcastically mirroring your post either, everything i’ve said is true. Everyone I talk to in real life think it’s a really good album that’s stood the test of time
What really proves that CLB is Drake’s weakest studio album, more than anything else, is the fact that the biggest song on it is a Savage Mode II leftover
They gonna hate on you for speaking the truth 😭

Facts lol. Nobody around me sees it as a classic

I think Views is probably his most polarizing album, even in the fanbase.

I mean assuming you and your friends 23+ 2016 was a great year and having nostalgia to an album is the new definition of classic to people when it used to mean an album with very minimal to no skips that holds up years later lol
Once Drake gets fully into his mainly bragging about record sales and money and s*** bag (which IMO comes from the Meek victory) a lot of that music don’t have replay value like everything up thru IYRTITL
I think Views really could’ve been a classic if the tracklist was something like:
1. Keep the Family Close
2. 9
3. U With Me?
4. Feel No Ways
5. Faithful
6. With You
7. Controlla
8. One Dance
9. Childs Play
10. Too Good
11. Summers Over Interlude
12. Fire & Desire
13. Can I?
All the mediocre rapping is what bogs that album down and makes it a chore to listen to. He should’ve committed harder to the seasonal theme he set out to do, and focused on making an R&B/dancehall fusion album.
He wanted that album to represent Toronto more than anything, and nothing would’ve represented the city more than the dark R&B sound he helped popularized as well as the island styles he was helping bring to the mainstream.
Like he’s admitted before, the Meek thing put him into ultra defensive mode and I think it severely changed the course of that album’s creation.
Also, closing the album with Can I would’ve been such a fitting way to end the album dedicated to his city.

Can I is such a banger

Rapping on Views (for the most part) one of the main reasons I don’t enjoy that album.

Nobody said Metro NEEDS a Drake verse. The Drake version is just better tf lmao

I don't see how Drake fits on the song but u can think his version better. Metro made the right call tho.

I would add Redemption but mostly I agree.
Weston Road Flows and Views are good as well, at least sonically

they called me insane…
I think it’s more of an iconic era for Drake rather than a classic album itself. Sorta like 2016 Kanye or 2021 Kanye
I honestly think More Life does a better job of accomplishing what Views set out to accomplish. I’ve always said More Life is a better version of Views
I disagree but I can respect that opinion fasure ... More Life was Views era Drake goes to London lol..... literally.
This is the definition of niggas just saying anything
Nah Dey f***ed up not releasing Drake version, drakes 21 Savage thing is pure garbage,
Dis 1 song was making up 4 Drake getting old
All those leaks were from OVO camp itself. They were more or less used as feelers.
Nah there was a big wetransfer leak so they ended up making dark lane in a week cause people kept asking for the leaks to be on streaming
Not because of Views
Youre lying to yourself if you dont think that the music released that year had any part in people loving summer 16. Tlop and Views were essential parts
I don't see how Drake fits on the song but u can think his version better. Metro made the right call tho.
Apparently not if the drake version is going viral instead of the og
