If it continues the sound/energy laid out by If You're Reading This It's Too Late... and What a Time To Be Alive then we are in for a great record.
That's abrupt! Shucks. At least he's not totally subverting his plans to release Views from the 6 at all. I always love to see artists following through on plans, even when obstacles get in the way.
To me, and I know I'm in the minority, "If Your Reading This" didn't have much replay value for me, as well as What a Time To Be Alive. Hoping this is different though.
Looking somewhat forward to checking this out, but "Summer Sixteen" and past definitely didn't catch my attention as much as the previous LP. I mean, Drake has always sounded a little monotone for the most part, but these recent tracks didn't really get what made him good on most of IYRTITL. Also, I have a gut feeling that this might be the LP Ian Cohen talking about that he thought was terrible, but felt like it will still make Top 10's.
