Simpin Ain't Easy: The Official Thread For Drake's Sophomore Album, TAKE CARE

Ironically I wasn't motivated to listen to this any time soon but lex's visceral hatred is weirdly compelling?

OTOH I tend to trust k3vin on these things and there are a lot of 6/10 records out there.

"IF THAT'S YOUR POSITION.....WELL IT WASN'T LAST NIGHT"

"guys while you are listening to Drake, Me'Shell is playing "Leviticus: Faggot" to EMPTY ARENAS! THIS IS ON YOU"

"time for the Blue Slide Park thread"

"from sales of this album he should finally be able to afford that surgery to move his eyes closer to the center of his face"

Neanderthal killing it itt.

Good summary KK.

otm

"lord knows" is definitely the cut off of this - i honestly can't tell if i actually dig drake's rapping on that or if that beat obscures the tone of his voice so much that the competence he brings to the table is enough

i'm no rawse fan either but he brings it too

well the back half or so of this is kinda just there, huh

rly tho

Huh, this was kind of dull on first listen, and I *liked* TML!

there's a small sample of esg's swangin and bangin on HYFR (gotta do what i gotta do)

record is fucking amazing

in what regard

in it's capacity to turn lex into a rockist

so good it brought cutty out of exile

I haven't felt any desire to listen to this album since the first go-around

drake's rapping is definitely a problem, I don't really mind it per se but he only has one gear in the gearbox. he sounds like justin bieber on that talkshow, so one-note.

like at least diddy would change up the flow depending on who was ghostwriting for him. drake is just blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah

My review is due tomorrow, so I don't have that luxury.

do you have a real copy or are you reviewing the crappy leak we all got?

btw i'm passively keeping myself from binging on this

I have the actual album. No bonus tracks, but I do have "The Ride."

this'll prob be the only actual album i buy this year

"The Ride" is out there now

binging looks so weird... bingeing imo

i agree

this'll prob be the only actual album i buy this year

i like the former better, leaveing the e in there looks british

yeh but it invites a hard g so it makes it sound like you're dinging drake

woah ppl are really liking this album

http://www.metacritic.com/music/thank-me-later/critic-reviews

not super shocking, rock critics have bad taste always will

my friend chris played Take Care for me last night bc it has Rihanna in it and i really liked it

rihanna's the best part about that song

comes nowhere near "what's my name" however

no it does not

i have no use for physical copies of music but i want to make sure i have a quality version of this album

?? whats wrong with the one from the internet?

it's a bad rip

my copy is 192 -- usually i don't go thru the trouble of getting the best possible versions of every album i listen to, but i like this one a lot and i think the production is great and would like to hear it at the highest bit rate that i can!

why whiney mad

this will get a 9.5+ from p4k t/f

why whiney mad

because deej is like actively trying to convince someone to not buy music. fuck that

i know the money should be going to LEN Bonus Boys or whatever crap, but stfu

eh it's just drake

i think deej is trying to convince j0rdan to buy a CD, any CD, other than drake this year

which sucks mainly because he'll be contributing to the AMAZING FIRST WEEK NUMBERS that the media will use to further cement how very important drake supposedly is

I mean, Drake is pretty inoffensive, no?

every vote counts!!

he's offensive in his constant pathetic attempts to not offend anybody, apologize to anyone he might have offended, and desperately pander to any kind of rap fan that isn't already down with his innovative underwater crybaby sound

damn cutty just damn

i know the money should be going to LEN Bonus Boys or whatever crap, but stfu
