    Definitely not a bad EP, but definitely not great for Drake’s standards. What’s Next is pretty generic, Wants and Needs is a pretty good song but held up significantly by Lil Baby, but Lemon Pepper Freestyle is a great track and both Rick Ross and Drake are great on it.

    This album is kind of trash, the only song I really liked is Lemon Pepper freestyle, with the angelic, R&B production of Boi-1da and AP assisting Drake’s classic flow he was always known for. What’s Next is a rip-off of every Playboi Carti song production-wise and is overall just very boring and plain. And as for Wants and Needs, well I just forgot about that as soon as the song was over.This album is kind of trash, the only song I really liked is Lemon Pepper freestyle, with the angelic, R&B production of Boi-1da and AP assisting Drake’s classic flow he was always known for.

    The sequel to his 2018 two-pack ranges from “just OK, I guess” to “pretty damn impressive” — in a smooth 3-song sonic gradient.

    He’s still in peak form. Each song on “Scary Hours 2″ is different and reflective of Drake’s rap-kaleidoscope nature. If this EP is any indication of what “Certified Lover Boy” might sound like, then we might be in for one of the rapper’s most introspectively jarring and anthem-heavy projects in a long time.

    Breezy and club-ready standout ‘What’s Next’ isn’t too dissimilar to ‘Laugh Now, Cry Later’; the quietly simmering ‘Wants and Needs’, which features a glittering star turn from Lil Baby, evokes some of the more brooding parts of ‘Scorpion’; and ‘Lemon Pepper Freestyle’ is the kind of exuberant freestyle cut that we know Drake likes to close his projects with.
