He says so himself on “Hype”: “I don’t take this shit for granted / I do my own propaganda.” Some other gems from Views: “I group-DM my exes,” “I had to let go of us to show myself what I could do,” and “That pussy knows me better than I know myself.” Of course, one-liners are quintessential to all Drake content, even those appearing on his lesser playlist More Life. Drake’s definitely well aware of how great his bars are for the ’gram. We’ve got the boy in his feelings, telling the rap world he’s the best in the game, talking about how he provides for his loved ones, and reveling in all his absurdist, quippy glory. Virali Dave: Right off the bat, one of the things I love about Views is that it gives us all the little Drake things fans have come to know and love. That said, I’d love it if you tried to convince me otherwise.

for what he could’ve been, a Views fan-the timing is perfect to convince him that the most polarizing Drake album is actually good. Since April 29 marks two years since the album’s release-and since I always saw T.C. and I first met, we bonded over our mutual love for Drake, only to find that we had very different views on Views. Like most Drake content, the album performed remarkably well -it’s spent more than 100 consecutive weeks on the Billboard 200 -but whether it is a good album is still up for debate among fans. Of the many points of contention within the Drake fandom, one’s take on Views falls right up there with controversies of alleged ghostwriting.
