DRAKE - BASICALLY IT'S SCARY HOURS 3 / 2023 / OVO / MUSIC FOR A DRAKE AND DRIVE
5/10
Y'all know this is just my opinion, right? - Hudba
You can’t give Drake another 5 because you’re still scared of the 6, Melon.
This has _no right_ being this clever.
Banger comment
scared of the sixxxxxx
scared of the Siiiiiiiix
Guys plz help I don't get it can someone explain?
If this was named “SCARING THE DOGS” you would’ve given this a 9/10
This only gets more and more sufferable
Nah, "For all the dog seeing ghosts"
did you know that there's a dog under scary hours
More Dogs
@@BuenaNochesto pimp a dog
If this album would’ve had vegan cookie recipes on it, it would’ve gotten a 10/10.
😂
Don't tell me (who), but this is a reference to another release melon has reviewed recently [which actually included a recipe for something].
ISN'T IT? 😳😵💫
@@flaminghead1va he's referencing that one time a canadian actor who poses as a rapper with an army of ghostwriters went crying on his DM's, that shit was crazy
first funny comment ive seen in this format
If this comment had correct grammar, it would have gotten a 10/10.
I actually like this EP/deluxe significantly more than the album. Which is hilarious considering the album was teased for a full year while the EP was apparently made in 5 days.
Maybe drakes issue is he’s trying too hard 😂💀
He wants the critics to give him good reviews
Tbf the album had a lot of different types of songs as well as a bunch of features, whereas obviously it’s a lot easier and quicker to make an EP of fairly similar rap songs with only 1 feature
The album was not teased for a full year lmao
Both had highlights and both had trash like usual. Maybe if you took the best 17 songs out of these two you would actually have a solid record.
@@scifinerd17which they dont
I don’t care what anyone says, those 6 tracks were excellent.
What if Hitler said he loved them
@@costcoexecutivemember would like it even more
Better than TPAB
Clearly you care or you wouldn’t be here commenting
@@costcoexecutivememberjokes on you I’m a Kanye fan
I think Drake is unable to miss with scary hours. I just wish he brought the quality to his albums too😭
I thought FATD was pretty good. Its not that easy to find a song on there i dont like.
Tryna please fans of every genre is easily his biggest flaw.
I'm a fan tho I like all that shit 😂😂
@@tkthadon4988It’s just that it feels as if he refuses to make an album that sounds as if he accepts his position, always trying to appeal to the audience with features like Yeat or Sexyy Red. I loved the Chief Keef feature because both are staples from this decade, I’m just really tired of hearing Future and 21 Savage in a Drake project when he could get features from Daft Punk or some epic shit like that
@@tkthadon4988real, except bbl love and gently exist, and also the middle is high key forgettable af. the first 12 or so tracks and final bit of the album is good tho.
@@tkthadon4988you like some FATD don’t you?
"Pusha T scarred him in a way that no other rapper ever will". Well that aged poorly.
💀🤣🤣😭 do you think any other rapper could do more damage than Pusha T did? I feel like if Future outright dissed Drake it would be insane because it would turn Atlanta, the rap mecha against Drake but Kendrick turned the entire world against Drake😭
If this album was called KIDS SEE DOGS or DOGS SEE GHOSTS we would be seeing strong 9s to 10s
This was honestly the best music Drake has dropped since IYRTITL
f a c t s should've been a 7
More life clears it
bruh the first three songs were fvcking mid, hes talking about the same sh;t he talked for a million other times with a monotone voice and rhyming. Its boring af, its like earl sweatshirt but atlest he had something to say
More Life exists
This > More Life
If this was called to Pimp a Scary Dog it would have got a 10/10
😂😂😂
Bro this is so underrated
@@JAD3NZ_ omg I love you so much daddy
Good Dog Mad City
Drake the type of guy to call certain hours of the day "scary"
Drake the type of guy to walk on his tippy toes with this album playing and pounce on you to be "scary".
@@AlexsonP😂😂😂😂 nah this is jokes
bro.. that Wick Man instrumental is INCREDIBLE. It sounds like the water level from Donkey Kong Country
Facts it’s a perfect drake instrumental
Alchemist is incredible. Delivers every time
Imo it’s one of the worst drake songs I’ve heard, first three are fire tho
@@Nxrthluvsyouyou just don’t like the beat. That’s fine
Snare frequency is painful in the headphones
A strong 5 is crazy, he did everything he was suppose to do, he’s 3 for 3 for his scary hours series
No
The even scarier thing about this is that he gave it a 5. Maybe if it wasn’t as scary he’d give it a light 7?
If the song were called:
24. "Red Melon"
25. "Stories About My Melon"
26. "The Shoe melons"
27. "Wick Melon"
28. "Evil Ways" (ft J. Melon)
29. "You Broke My Melon"
you would've given it a 10/10

You know it’s scary hours when Anthony was scared to give it a 10/10
Thank you so much for rating this a 10 Anthony. Well-deserved after Drake dropped his best rapping since If You’re Reading This
He didn't lol? you on the wrong video bro?

You mean since his 2007 mixtape ☠️
If you combine all his Scary Hours EP’s, they’re probably an 8/10 album
5+ 1+ 2 = 8
7:01 drake the kind of guy to step on a rake and get hit in the face 💀💀💀
that part on You Broke My Heart really sounds like "f*ck my ass" tho 😭
tbh I never heard that fantano and his chat did tho. But we all know ya'll like projecting when it comes to drake, I am happy you can express yourself.
@@andyd3758 he was never projecting, that’s just what he heard. Even after Drake dissed him, he still had nothing but respect for him.
@@andyd3758How ironic that you're accusing fantano viewers of being gay while simultaneously doing tricks on drake
@@andyd3758I ain't projecting I'm throwing it back doggy style twerk off in oil frfr join the party bruh 😮
Drake got that virtruvian man swag in the orgy too
@@oligarchiesyou guys are the only one who heard “fuck my ass”. please explain why no other reaction or review of the album on the internet heard that except the fantano crew? 😂
I think Drake has such a good voice he can rap / sing any weird lyric he wants and it will land with most of the general public.
I can’t wait for the 2 hour debate with Los after this
honestly the best part of any new drake release
As a white American, I have never heard someone call Drake a threat. I've seen my parents call Harry Potter and Pokemon threats, but not Drake
well for starters i don’t think you’re racist so he’s not talking about you bud
@@ADollarMightok but I dont think racists think drake is a threat either
@@ADollarMightlmfao what?
@@dr.donwario4125white america as a term is clearly referring to the racist part, and that extends to police brutality and violence against minorities where it extends to him. He’s basically saying what he said in IYRTITL, i’m too black for white people and too white for black people, never good enough for either. It’s not saying all white people have a crusade in Drake you just aren’t reading what he’s saying
Los is about to scream "How bro?!?!" more than we can count.
If the album was called “Mr. Moral and the big dog” it would’ve got a 10/10
that joke was so unfunny
@@trashorphan I mean it does have double your likes so maybe your the unfunny one?? Idk
@@therecreationalguru7323 im sure one day you'll come to realize that not everything needs to be based on "this number is bigger than that number" stop looking for validation in numbers on ur screen
He didn't even gave that album a 10/10 lol, make the joke, i love it, but make it good.
@@mireya0269 I bet your fun at parties
If this album was called, “SCARING THE HOES PT 1” by JPEGMAFIA, and Danny Brown, you would’ve given it an 8.
For All The Dogs: - 5/10
Scary Hours 3: - 5/10
To my conclusion 5 + 5 = 10 so that means that drake gets a 10 on this album
there are definitely a couple of head-scratcher lyrics on here, but i feel like they are outweighed by many more good/great lyrics and production, and listening to drake and cole go toe-to-toe lyrically (something i felt was missing from FPS) was damn near cathartic lol. i thought they had gems in that track and cole's internal rhyme scheme in his verses were great. 8 for me, most enjoyable "project" since IYRTITL imo
definitely the most enjoyable since if you’re reading this, but lesbionest, with how many unique and envelope pushing artists there are out there in the world, drake ain’t nothing but a mid sandwich
@@michaelonmichaelonmichael i hear you for sure. i miss pre-views drake, because THAT was unique to me due to his versatility and the delivery of his music with a lot more emotion and care that i feel has been lacking since he cemented himself as top dog (commercially, ofc) in hip-hop.
@@tommymckaihis new music feels quite soul less compared to old drake that for sure but in terms of recent drake i feel like this is a good project…his delivery is just so effortless but the production & a couple good bars here & there mixed in between the corny ones saves this project from being a total bore like for all the dogs or certified lover boy…plus another cole feature helps as well
@@tommymckaiever since all the success after IYRTITL which was his last classic he only puts effort when he’s dissing kanye , pusha or pharell….some tracks about his past relationships feels so phoned in but when it feels genuine is only when he’s being super petty & bitter….drake used to be more versatile overall & also when he spoke about women it’s weird how the more famous he became the more experience he acquired in life & with women his songs about women became worse overall…i remember old drake had love songs that felt sweet like best i ever had or find your love…maybe it’s because since the fame he only had negative experiences with women because now he’s always bitter…it’s weird cause it’s like the fame & money is getting in the way of him finding true love (if that’s even what he wants at this point can’t remember the last time i heard drake was in a relationship & dude got a pornstar pregnant that he was so embarrassed about that he denied it until he couldn’t anymore)
@@tommymckai facts. drake started as a breath of fresh air, hit a lick, and has been coasting off of light skin and catchy hooks since
hearing 6:50 out of context is one of the funniest shit on this channel💀
Enjoyed this EP a lot, felt better than the actual album which imo suffered from being too all over the place with no consistent theme, this EP however had a very smooth feeling to it.
Why is this guys reviews popular what makes his opinion matter??? A 5 for the best rap EP I heard in years smh
If the album was named “you won't get what you dog” you would’ve given this a 10
I think it was really good especially for Drake's standards in this decade & I'd probably give it like a 7/10, around the same as Her Loss
Oooh shit I thought Her Loss is prolly the best one since... Well for awhile lol
I gave her loss a 8, scary hours 3 a 9, those the only projects he dropped that was good imo, everything else was mid
her loss is so underrated
So you give Drake his own rubric? So literally exceptionalism?
@@Randomjackass135 what does that mean 😅
Scared of the 6, huh?
Crazy he made Scary Hours III in just a week. I’ve always wanted a full album of him rapping like this yet we only get subpar albums. Bro could drop his greatest album by spitting like this on 10-12 tracks yet he just…doesn’t do it. Gotta respect him for constantly dropping hits though
As someone whose hip-hop induction moment was cackling as this man took a fat L from Pusha T, this is easily the most engaging project I've heard from him since. I'd like to hear more like it, honestly.
Fantano is a shameless Drake hater at this point lol the scary hours add on is fire
Thank you Drake for bringing in more slop to eat
For all the dogs
Delicious Trash for my compost bin
@@luisconde6201 Maybe we were the dogs after all for eating whatever flith Drake puts out
this project was genuinely fire lol, if this bias ass fantano gave it a good review you would be saying it's great
@@ACBandit He gave Lil Pump's Self titled mixtape a 7 and I thought the album was awful. There are times where I don't agree with him at all.
Nno way both versions got a 5, this was easily a 7. An that taylor swift bar was hard lol
That bar was hilarious. I was drinking water and I almost spit that shit out.
You'd give it a 10/10 if it was called "For All The Butterflies"
Comment’s didn’t disappoint. All 6 tracks are SOLID if you are actually a Hip-Hop fan and apart of the culture. This guy since early 2000s swears every rap song/album needs to be extremely introspective or edgy.
I was surprised you actually gave this an actual review. Lol 😂
I love this album and his last albums. Certified lover boy was 10/10 for me. Honestly nevermind was 10/10 for me. This album was 10/10 for me. IDC what anyone says.
CLB aged like fine wine, it was meh on the first listen but since Ive revisited the project there literally isn’t a skippable song 💯
I'm so glad I know better when it comes to music of merit.
I hated CLB and Honestly Nevermind and I still do. But I actually love this project. I haven’t liked anything he’s done since Views but I’m not gonna pretend to hate everything he does and I legit thought this project was great.
FATD - 5
Scary hours 3 - 5
Add them together and Drake just got his first 10 from melon. Big Drake W.
Wow. Drake did 6 songs in 5 days and it's fire and not to mention the album is just good listening music. I am not even the biggest Drake fan but let's be honest he is so well rounded musically that there's no one close to him in this lane of music.
lmao
The description “Music for a ‘Drake and Drive’” 😂
the stepping on a rake analogy sent me into oblivion
Drake the type of person to step on a rake and get hit in the face with it 😂
I agree with a lot of your reviews, and I’m not the biggest Drake fan at all, but a 5 for this EP should qualify as hate.
nah it’s pretty fair - it’s tasteful but kinda flavorless. it’s solid, but unambitious. this lil ep situation isn’t bad by any stretch, but it’s well… mid. in other terms, 5 out of 10 - right down the MIDdle
Thank you. Flat out hatred
@@michaelonmichaelonmichael flavorless and unambitious? This is the exact opposite of that. Are you even listening to the same music? You don’t have to try so hard for Melon to accept you.
it's pretty boring tbh. drake needs more exciting beats if he wants to sound so monotone. a 5 is pretty fair
@@rudywilliams6538 I’m just relieved that on Scary Hours 3 Drake isn’t trying to keep up with the latest trends is simply rapping his truth over chill beats.
“The Shoe Fits” has very good storytelling in my opinion.
“Evil Ways” They kept the same rhyme scheme throughout and went back and forth over a beautiful sample like classic rap duos.
“You Broke My Heart” has lots of energy and great beat.
“Red Button” he’s talking arrogantly and reaffirming he’s still at the top and the numbers back him on that.
“Stories About My Brother” has strong bars.
“Wick Man” is my least favorite of the bunch. The only Mid song in my estimation.
And he only sings on one song, just gave us straight raps. This isn’t a 9 or a 10 but it’s a strong 7 imo.
Now let’s see if Los Pollos liked it. Bet all 6 songs are in his top 3.
if this video was 3 hours long i would've been so scared
The Shoe Fits might be my song of the year
I can’t wait for the Drake stan to come after you with this one
If this was called "To be Dog" you would've given this a 10
patiently waiting for the Quaranta review
the head nod at the end had me dead af😭😭
this just sounds like hate, baseless negative subjective opinions about how he thinks things should sound
Imagine if he took those 29 tracks, picked 10-12 of the best and released it... maybe a 7?
I would be mad cuz I liked most of em
Honestly thought you were going to make a short review of this lol
I love the Wick Man beat. Maybe it could’ve used a beat switch or some sort of variation tho
Fantano can't review Drake without a little bit of trolling
He said "John Cena wit it/ no emotions, I wrestle with", but slightly muffed the cadence. He's expanding on the "expressionless" from the previous line. That's a nice bar so it's kinda annoying to see you harping on it.
The way you say the lyrics in a question cadence is funny as hell
glad drake still making drake and drive music
thank u for referencing that clip my favorite clip of urs
This guy can’t be pleased 😂
If this was for all the oh no I can’t do it I can’t think of a joke
You say you feel like you’re stuck in a time loop when Drake revisits some past topics in his newer songs but I feel like I’m stuck in a time loop when I hear you give another Drake album a score under 6
They're pretty small still but I'd love to hear your take on the single "oh lover* by Sunday cruise
They're a really small indy band from Chicago and I've loved them to bits for years now, I think they're pretty underrated.
Philophobia is another pretty good one as well.
U tripping if anyone else dropped this it would be a 10
Okay clearly fantanto has a a personal bias of some sort because these were fire.
The drake stepping on a rake when he gets mad bit at the end Hahahahah
Almost 3 milly subs, theneedledrop is poppin off! wow
Bro did Alchemist dirty
EP went 6 for 6, no skips. You can just see the hate & smugness on dudes face throughout this “review”
Nah man. Only 6 for 6 for people who love hearing Drake talk. Some of those songs too slow & repetitive for me. Needed more bangers & melody.
@@SanguinePink Nah, I like hearing Drake rap
@@SanguinePink if fantano loved it you'd love it too
@@AhmadKhan-ez3zk I been a drake hater longer than I knew who fantano was. I mainly like iyrtitl. But all the parties are slime you out are nice. I don't hate the album. I just honestly like the vibey songs more than him trying to rap advice at me. That's cause I'm not his fan
leave you in the dirt like vegetation wasn’t even a bad line, nor was the segregation or hawaiian line he just wanted to shit on drake
Stories About My Brother is one of the best Drake songs in a long time
Just in time, I was wondering only minutes ago if you reviewed this
Out of all the albums that came out this past Friday….you review this??!?!?
I mean it’s only six tracks. Quickest to review makes sense.
if it were called To Scary An Hours you would've given it a 10
if this was named to scare a butterfly you would have rated it a 10
Dude I need that A Savage review. You said you would!!
How he reviewed this before Quaranta is beyond me.
Quaranta is a more important project to him so obviously he’s gonna take more time on it. He’ll prolly rate it good. Even tho it’s nothing special
@@BACKDOORBROWNIE710what album did you listen to bro? quaranta is undeniably phenomenal
@michaelonmichaelonmichael what's undeniably phenomenal is how much glazing is done for danny brown s overrated albums
@@michaelonmichaelonmichael nigga get it out your mouth. Just cus it’s alternative doesn’t automatically make it amazing
Anthony, you can't give it a 5 just because you thought it was middle of the road
yeah wtf why would he give it a positive and reasonable score while justifying all of his reasoning - kinda obnoxious tbh
That's literally what a 5 is bro
Does someone know where the art from the album came?
If he spent 10 days working on this it would have been a 10/10
Thanks Anthony, please return my Schnauzer when you get the chance.
drake always makes for good review fodder, hilarious review fantano
this ep was great@@Minnevan
@@Minnevanyou are corny
hi anthony! quick suggestion of albums here: can you review christine and the queens latest album as well as aaamyyy "annihilation"? thank you for your hard work!
can't wait for the Los debate!
Can't wait for Los to scream at you for an hour while you concisely explain your opinion and justify your score. It's my favorite part of every drake release.
5:29 I disagree about social commentary. Drake has a lot of themes of fragile masculinity, going through pain associated with betrayal and breakup and growing from it. I don't read it as dissing women, more like expressing raw emotion and weakness and lashing out from a place of loneliness and pain. It's not a fine-sculpted Kendrick therapy session, but it's still social commentary. He did a lot of it on Take Care
Is it themes of fragile masculinity, or is it just a fragile male making music true to himself?
@@MMCLLC7 how is that not the same thing?
@faygo9603 i wouldnt call rapping about how fragile you are a commentary on society at large. I would call it introspection. Which is fine nothing wrong with artists exploring themselves in their music, most if not all do anyway. But theres a difference between personal journal entries and a statement about the world at large. And when has drake ever had anything to say about whats going on in the world that actually matters beyond celebrity gossip, trending topics, and rappers he thinks he's better than?
@@MMCLLC7be careful cause you’re gonna have to give the same judgement to kendrick and y’all hate doing that
@ADollarMight first off whos yall? I fw kendrick but im not one of his stans calling him the goat every chance i get.
Lets not even try to compare kendrick and drake in terms of social commentary. Doesnt matter how introspective kendrick gets, he still raps with a wealth of knowledge about the world around him and with a high level of empathy for people especially those who look like him and have his shared experiences. Mr morale was for men with daddy issues, men who cheat or dont trust women, people who wanna be famous and rich, and people who think he can do no wrong. He spent the majority of the album explaining why he shouldnt be the goat, why he shouldnt need to appeal to people who keep putting him in that box and expect him to deliver something that saves the world.
Drake, meanwhile, cant stop calling himself the goat and appears to still be trying to prove it. Thats why he had to drop a ep right after his album so people would stop making fun of him. Yall got all bars from drake and forgot hes not actually saying anything about anything. The subject matter is the same as its been since views: hes rich, hes the best rapper, he gets the baddest chicks, but also he wants love and thats hard to find when youre famous and rich. Tell me i didnt just sum up drakes entire ethos in a sentence.
Drake wants to be the greatest so bad, thats why his music isnt progessing. He keeps talking about how hes gonna take over the game and oh man when i press this button its over for everybody! Like dude if you had a button for that you wouldve pressed it in 2017 for pusha.
Drake thinks numbers make the man, and kendrick was actively no longer caring whether people enjoyed, understood, or agreed with his work. He did it for himself. Thats how art works.
Lastly, this isnt to say drakes ep wasnt good. For the most part it was. The beats were great and yes drake has bars when he wants to. But theres no commentary if you only take about what youve solely experienced. Litterally just open up drake and kendricks lyrics on genius, read them, and see who actually thinks about the world and how their music affects it, beyond it being popular or better than others.
Wow! Pleasantly surprised that you gave it a strong 10! Knew it was good but didn’t know you would agree.
What do we think about this take fellas? Because personally when I listen to drakes music I just put myself in his POV. For example instead thinking like “what evil ways does drake have?🤔” I think about my own evil ways, I feel like anthony just sees drake in whatever scenario he’s rapping about instead of trying to relate what drake is saying to his own life.
I side with the #1 Drake Stan on this one
yes anthony 5/6 of the songs were great!! so glad ur officially giving it a 8.3333
not how he gauges score - it’s not about the ratio of bops to flops, but the whole of the record weighed within the wider musical landscape
but ig we can make it mathematical since people only calling drake top 3 due to sales numbers anyway
@@michaelonmichaelonmichaelHe’s obviously joking
How long does it take you to make reviews?
Who wants a review of this? We want another Los Polos convo! WE WANT THAT DRAKE AND DRIVE!!!
Maybe if Drake named it Scary Hours 4 he’d also get a 5/10
This is drakes best project since nothing was the same
If you're reading this
1:37 I’m loving the intro style cuz he is poking fun😂
I feel like you were feeling it a lot more on your stream than how you expressed here
