Drake - Scorpion (June 29, 2018) Album • Page 22

Side b is def sounding better to me on first listen

 

“White van across the street, really guys ?”

 

Skipping to Blue Tint for Pluto

Edit: damn no verse or nothing

 

Jesus. Peak does not belong at the beginning of Side B wtf

 

He does mention having a son in one of the first few tracks.

 

He mentions the son like 3 times throughout it and then caps it off with March 14 being entirely about him


PUSHA FUCKIN DID IT

 

What the actual fuck is this birthday song lol

 

this is okay

 

Can't stop thinking about Summer Games

 

I want to say this should be ten tracks, but Kanye can’t even come up with seven good ones.

 

I actually enjoy this album. The standouts after my first listen were Nonstop, 8 Out of Ten, Sandra's Rose and Summer Games.

 

As expected, this album is just...there with moments of excitement. This is just who Drake is, a coaster who shows occasional experimentation to make it just interesting enough. I like this, but he basically just proved that he's the most boring rap "king" of all time.

 

Going in order, I'm on only on track 10 of disc 1. So far I'm actually enjoying most of it, definitely some boring ones, but I also know I won't be listening to it in full probably ever again. As far as I can tell, there's no thought to the sequencing on this at all.

 

I think disc one is a very cohesive work.

 

disc 1 is cohesive but only has a few really big moments, one of which is gods plan which weve had for a while. the first few tracks kind of drag on and on. doesnt really hit its stride til 8 out of 10. disc 2 is a mess with some of the best moments but some of the most brutal to get through (peak, finesse). i think that its an easier listen than, say, culture 2, but not nearly as good as sr3mm. to compare to other long projects in the genre this year.

 

this album length is brutal. but it's not a bad album. but i'm bored with it and still have seven tracks to go.

 

Yea I wouldn't call this bad it's just.....there

 

Sounds like Ty Dolla is doing backup vocals on Jaded

 

Just a casual fan, but so far this has been really enjoyable. Chill, cool record. Usually there’s a few songs I dig and most I don’t, but even the ones I’m not feeling on Scorpion I still like.

 

I wish pop artists stopped releasing needlessly long albums purely to game streaming services.

 

“Don’t Matter to Me” by Drake Review | Pitchfork

 

I really really love Finesse, you guys

 

I really like Don't Matter to Me.

I've also listened to Summer Games like 6 times already.

 

Only 4 tracks in so far and these all sound like songs he’s already done better before
