Sep 3, 2021Although most tracks are boring, Drake is brave enough to confess that he is a lesbian. Deserves a 6.9
-
Sep 3, 2021A very good album, with very foods songs, but a little bit disappointing, because there is no major innovation
-
Sep 4, 2021Needs to be in consideration for album of the year.some of his best work .

Sep 3, 2021Super over hated album already. People are comparing to Donda. But in reality, this album is just better. The features are better, it’s more structured and it just sounds better. People love to hate on drake but will be calling this album great in a year.
-
Sep 4, 2021Don't listen at 8am on your phone. Turn it up! Some songs could get cut for sure, but some songs can be listened to like 10 times back there are just so many barz. Another Drake album where he feels the pressure to appeal to everybody, and the arrogance to appeal to nobody in particular either.

Sep 4, 2021Another Classic from the 6️⃣ god. Sad it’s getting reviewed bombed by a bunch of Ye stans.
-
Sep 4, 2021The beats represent the song and vocals very well, great sounding vocals, amazing features, incredible lyricism. Don’t hate, 10/10 album.
-
Sep 3, 2021No major hits on this one but The album serves the Lover Boy theme though.
Cohesion is Good and the production is excellent. More features than usual for a Drake album that are also spot on. If you go to the Movies to watch a great Love story while expecting an action movie with Bruce Willis you shouldn't go in the first place. I expect good reviews on this one in contrast with Kanye's DONDA. -
Sep 3, 2021truly his best work since 2015. the negative reviews are just people who want change. this man has been running a decade with "no change" okay
-
Sep 3, 2021No es lo mejor de Drake, pero para los estandares de 2021 es el mejor disco del año hasta la fecha, se defiende y logra hacer lo que sabe.

Sep 3, 2021Wow, I think this is one of the best albums of the year. Amazing! Get into the vibe of the songs, allow yourself to live this album and the criticism to the rapper stereotype present in it!

-
Sep 3, 2021play this in your car if it has an excellent sound system early in the morning or late at night when it's dark out & no cars are on the road appreciate the fact that this album will make you cry and want to give drake a hug because of how good it is any negative review you see on here is all lies this album is hot man
-
Sep 3, 2021It’s great. Nothing more to add, it’s just perfect. I loved it. The flow in every song is impecable. The features didn’t disappoint.
-
Sep 3, 2021If you’ve liked Drake all along, this bolsters your claim he is on the top of the hip/hop - r/b throne that HE created in the first place, if you’ve never been driving alone and played a drake song, you won’t like it, and still will never play him alone
-
Sep 3, 2021‘They’ll hate on CLB just like they did on Views’, album SLAPS, love the features and the intro is solid gold ❤️
-
Sep 3, 2021Drizzy Drake is back with the bops. Artist of the decade. Rap album of the year.

Oct 19, 2021It’s beige, hollow music and that’s what ultimately frustrates your dedicated rap listener because it doesn’t make sense why it’s so damn popular. When you throw the poor writing on top of this, and some real hit-and-miss production into the mix, “Certified Lover Boy” may well be Drake’s worst album.
-
Sep 13, 2021Drake comes across as an artist who’s bought into his mythos and persona a bit too ardently. ... The production on Certified Lover Boy is svelte yet airless, filled with lots of solemn piano lines and muted snares but absent of big flourishes or attempts at pop crossover. It’s an approach that’s likely aiming for tasteful restraint, but the effect is languid and rather directionless.
-
Sep 13, 2021Things start promisingly with the undulating Champagne Poetry dextrously reflecting on loneliness (“career is going great, but now the rest of me is fading slowly”), while Papi’s Home recalls early Kanye, of all people, with its sped-up samples and laid-back flow. Later, however, that playfulness calcifies into headline-grabbing stunts. ... This is an album destined to be filleted for various #mood playlists, anchored only by its creator’s untouchable fame.
