“Inspired by rap and R&B in equal measure, Drake becomes the first of the post-Kanye, emo-y rappers to fully deliver on his debut LP.”
“It’s a shock to hear how softly — sluggishly, even — Drake announces himself on his official debut. The tempos are slow, the beats are awash in gauzy atmospherics, and Drake raps (and, surprisingly often, sings) in the voice of a guy who’s half-awake. "This is really one of my dumbest flows ever/I haven’t slept […]”
“Thank me later was a solid listen. I really hear Drake talking about fame, doubting himself and past relationships with women. Decent songs across the board”
“Very good project as always way too long Drake is gonna increase my attention span tbh this is my third fav”
“A lot of good songs just nothing that sticks out to me”
