Album is heat. I fw it. I didn’t hear any skips.
21 joints is a bit much but it flows pretty well imo.
Some of the beats are a lil repetitive tho. A few mid.
Their signature dark ambient sound flourishes on most cuts. A lot of beat switches as well, which is another one of his signatures now. Not mad at it at all. Sounds like 40 and 1da handled most if not all the production.
Drake vocals are crisp, and clear, delivery is on point. Some nice bounce flow pockets, top tier melodic raps. Some catchy patterns. He raps for real on “GIMME A HUG” and maybe one other joint. He talking his shit. A few subs too. The other joints he in his normal r&b bag.
“F*ck a rap beef I’m trying to get the party lit”
PND gets busy too, but Drake carries most songs. PND blends his vulgar yet smooth style very well with Drakes more introspective conversation approach with the ladies. It works.
Drake shows more versatility in his singing styles.
The KDot stans are gonna have a field day with the “MEET YOUR PADRE” Latin record. I’m sure you’ll hear or see “hE’s ColOniZinG aGaIn Ya’LL” in the comments somewhere lol
NOKIA is a hit. It’s a few on the project. Mostly a chill laid back album to listen to with ya lady, or if you’re riding with one. Or just riding dolo on the way to or from one.
Overall I enjoyed the album.
Gonna give it another listen again later.
And the album cover would’ve been iller imo with naked baddies standing in the snow with red heels and minks on. Maybe they’ll do that for the deluxe
