    I think it's because drake hasn't really evolved as a person. Like J.Cole, Kanye, Jay-Z grow every album because they're in a different mental space every album. Drake is still trying to find a "good" stripper who wants to settle down and then complains about them wanting his money. Like just grow up and pick better women. There's more to life.

  • @trash_chan
    @trash_chan Před 2 lety +87

    I think what really sunk this album is the somewhat lack of thoughtful introspection from Drake. I know that he's moved on from replicating the sound of Take Care and Nothing Was The Same because he wanted to shift from the perception that he's a sensitive guy, but his life has significantly changed since those albums and this would've been a good time to reflect on his successes and failures.
    In fact, I think CLB could've worked as a concept album the way the Weeknd did with After Hours. Perception has always been a thing with Drake, (e.g. Sensitive Drake, Jamaican Drake, Actor Drake, etc.) so why not embrace that perception and work to completely dismantle it through the music, like developing a character arc and such?
    Maybe I'm thinking too hard about it since we already have the final product, so it probably doesn't matter in the end. It's just that Drake's latest catalogue of music is making me lose respect for him as an artist. CLB doesn't give me the impression that he's working on maturing his sound or even himself.

      Drake was taking risks early on by singing (because not many rappers were singing back then) but now every rapper is singing.

KANYE? 😅he jumps out the window on every release, he’s so unpredictable. LATE REG to GRAD to 808s to MBDTF to YEEZUS? That a run of albums that sound nothing alike. It’s like he builds a house of sound. blows the house up. burns the ashes. and builds it again. He’s a madman!!!
