Iceman for the most part got received well here, but those who don't like it really want you to know, like really want to get that across. And I'm also referencing outside ktt, there's another friend who wanted me to hate it so badly because they're on that pick a side type s*** and aren't pressing play, but I told em I didn't hate it lol

Trolling aside, and prefacing I legitimately have him as the GOAT, I can see where a lot of he critiques come from.

I miss him having a few things in the music, and one is structure. Whether it’s a legit pop song like HOWGH, Hotline Bling, One Dance, etc. A truly structured song with a verse, chorus, verse, chorus… feel like he’s too attached to switches/pivots or simply just these streams of rambling he goes on and he strays from structure.

Second is the rapping approach. The bars are undeniable even to this day, but it seems like it’s either that Middle of the Ocean laissez-faire flow he’s classic for (and I love), or it’s gotta be some trap-adjacent beat and he’s whispering or doing voice changes. The 5AM, Tuscan Leather, 6 God (hell even the screaming flow dudes on KTT1 used to troll about), just a different approach to rapping that I can’t quite put into words. I genuinely love Iceman and think it’s his best rapping since I’m not even sure when, but I can understand the critiques. He’s using new flows, new pockets, etc, which to this day is ridiculous he can still do it, but there is something about the older Drake rap records that lacks in the some of the newer product.

Still, Iceman got one miss for me and it’s the 21 song. Shabang already grew on me something crazy.

Great first day!

I think my theory of most people not being aware that the other two albums dropped was right though…

Drake probably really REALLY took all those drake be like jokes to heart #lightskinthings and probably just went on ahead and did a memory wipe of all the things that made vintage drake...well vintage drake lol.
