I still like Drake.. More than I ever have. Really. But the guy's corniness knows no bounds, and I think he is attempting something of a factory reset. He wants people to forget that he cried over Rhianna, and start to focus on how many girls are crying over him!
A couple lines on If You're Reading This... stand out as feeling a bit too forced. Like: "It's just that I'm the one they all wanna be mama"
Oh, is that all it is? Just feeling a little put upon are we? Feeling a little stressed about the fact that everyone wants to be you? Yeah, you sound pretty down.
And: "If me and Future wasn't doing this rap shit we'd prolly be in Silicon getting our billions on"
What? Why are you talking about Future? Seriously, where did that come from? Is he there with you? No? Do you guys have a very public Batman & Robin kind of relationship going on? No? No more than any other rappers who sometimes feature one another? Ok - why are you suddenly talking about Future at the end of this album full of talk about your damn self?
Oh well. I wish him the best I guess. I'd rather hear one finished new Kanye cut than a thousand Hotline Blings but whatever.
