It’s happened again! Late Thursday night, Drake dropped a surprise new album, Honestly, Nevermind, and the internet has already got some pretty strong opinions about it. On the one hand, it’s dance-focused production is getting people excited for the summer. On the other, well, “purist” rap fans are a little more critical of the project.
First, the good…

My relationship to new hip hop is mostly on a “how can this serve me & my dj gigs?” & less about me listening as a fan. That said this @Drake jawn is a gift. Only people not wit the program are people who don’t move their bodies. That ain’t sexy yo 🤷🏾♂️

Drake has the insane ability to make music well below what I expect a top artist of a generation would make

So, what to make of it all? Well, we’d say give the album a listen for yourself, but honestly, if you’re a fan of “Passionfruit” or “One Dance”, then chances are very high Honestly, Nevermind is for you. But, a surprise Drake album is never not fun, at the very least.
