He had also invited Drake to appear alongside him at his 'Free Larry Hoover' Benefit Concert in December of last year. LOS ANGELES: As a follow-up to last year's 'Certified Lover Boy', Drake has released his seventh studio album titled 'Honestly, Nevermind'. Earlier, the rapper made the announcement for the album through his Instagram.

Drake has revealed his new seventh album Honestly, Nevermind hours before he released the music with 14 new songs.

This album comes just nine months after the release of his previous one, Certified Lover Boy, which was delayed after the rapper had to recover from surgery on his leg. The grunge graffiti lettering of the title is set on a black background, while Drake is pictured on the back of the album in an oversized army print jacket with his head down.

“But I remember every single time someone shined a light in my eyes. “I know what's what and especially what and who is by my side “I know everyone that tells me they love me doesn’t love me all the time especially when I'm doing better than alright and they have to watch it from whatever point they at in their life. “I was tryna get thru that statement to get to saying I’m not at a time in my life where pats on the shoulder help get me by. “I know if it was a dark night where all the odds were against my side and my skill went to whoever took my life they’d done me off with a big smile and maybe even post it for some likes. Drake continued: “I can’t remember the last time someone put they phone down, looked me in the eyes and asked my current insight on the times

The 6 God returned to surprise fans with the release of his 'Honestly, Nevermind' album. Billboard ranks every track from the project.

Paying homage to the late Lil Keed and “Drama King” DJ Kay Slay is a fitting salute as well. “A Keeper” will serve as a hidden gem on the album — book it. “Down Hill” is undoubtedly a sad-boy anthem where Drake’s vocals shine through. The bounce in the early portion of the song is reminiscent of Kanye West‘s “Paranoid.” “Overdrive” boasts some pop appeal, whether that’s the hip-hop stations or SiriusXM’s BPM Radio channel. Smooth synths after an instrumental “Intro,” which Drake’s made a habit of executing at a high level to introduce listeners to his body of work. “Calling My Name” will be another forgotten track gracing the album. He’s clearly going at an unidentified enemy here and in Drake fashion, he subliminally gets his point across on the LP’s first standout. The OVO honcho isn’t afraid to experiment in different genres and when doing that, he shines a light on areas of music that might get overlooked and now have millions of new listeners indulging in the genre. An expert collaborator, Drake enlists only one credited guest with 21 Savag e joining the party for album closer “Jimmy Cooks.” Streaming services are classifying HONESTLY, NEVERMIND as a dance album and that’s very telling through the first two tracks. Drizzy takes a backseat and lets the beat do the talking, which feels more like one long house DJ set. 30 seconds in, it’s tough to believe this is a Drake record in 2022, but we are here.

From heartbroken club tracks to a sample from the late Virgil Abloh, Honestly, Nevermind is honestly, not what you might expect from Drake's new album.

Death, taxes and a new Drake album to get the internet fighting are the only things we can be certain of in this life. In terms of how it's sounding, Honestly, Nevermind, is honestly, not what you might expect after the fairly underwhelming 2021 album Certified Lover Boy, a record which felt like the Canadian rapper rehashing the same riffs and playing it a little too safe. Yesterday saw the release of Honestly, Nevermind, the latest album from Drizzy and a drop which landed midnight on Friday 17 June.

Drake has long mastered the art of the surprise album. Someone who has long out-grown the need for a decent marketing run up, he tends to hit and run – push ...

For those who dare to read beyond the headline, Drake has offered us glimmers of the truth, and the whole truth. The production – though outwardly daring – doesn’t add much to its influences, emphasising instead Drake’s curatorial nous, and his ability to frame a narrative within just a few notes. In an era of algorithmic saturation, this new project feels almost like a test for his vast fanbase, exploring the different between passive and active listening. The music, too, is startling different – house-leaning electronics, infused with R&B’s soulful exhortation, it sits in a completely distinct world to his entire discography. Even by his own standards, however, ‘Honestly, Nevermind’ comes as a surprise – a mere 90 minute warning was given before the record hit Spotify and Apple Music, accompanied by a scattered note that hinted at paranoia, dissatisfaction, and personal disquiet. Drake has long mastered the art of the surprise album.

Drake's new album Honestly, Nevermind has some fans claiming that the rapper is a bit too old for the lyrics of his song "Texts Go Green."

Drake certainly ramped up the Friday feels after dropping a brand new surprise album, Honestly, Nevermind. But, some people are less than impressed.

Made for a different audience." Alongside his new album, Drake also dropped a wedding-themed music video for one of the tracks, Falling Back. Drake announced the album, consisting of 14 songs, on Instagram hours ahead of the midnight launch.

Too often, it sounds as if Drake simply isn't trying that hard on his unannounced seventh album.

Otherwise, Drake is planted firmly on the dancefloor and seems to be having a good time musically even if the lyrics aren’t so chipper. Black Coffee, real name Nkosinathi Maphumulo, worked on multiple songs on Honestly, Nevermind, which takes the Passionfruit/Get It Together feel and extends it to almost an hour. One such surprise was his song Passionfruit, a relaxed, romantic dance number that appeared on his mixtape More Life in 2017.

Drake fans, get ready to be in your feelings. The rapper announced the release of his seventh studio album hours before its release late Thursday.

His team later requested to remove his nominations from the Grammy's final-round ballot altogether.

Drake finally said 'I do' as he married a hoard of Instagram models in his latest music video for new single Falling Back.

Respect the artist and the boundaries he pushed on this one'; 'Is Drake new album good or did it just catch me in a great mood this morning.' He did please some fans with the new music, however, who tweeted: 'Drake did a ting though. 'Pretending to agree with people that Drake’s “surprise” album is actually good is exhausting. It's a good time for me, you know, I'm ready to settle down. 'I do,' Drake replied. the album still trash tho'; It's a good time for me, you know, I'm ready to settle down. 'I do,' Drake replied.

The visual for the lead single from “Honestly, Nevermind” includes cameos from Tristan Thompson and Drake's mother, plus a shout out to Toronto.

In the video’s final sequence, he and his many wives are seen driving away from the wedding ceremony outside of Union Hall, with the CN Tower in background. Drake, like André 3000, plays the slightly nervous groom as his friends help prepare him for the ceremony. Thompson plays Drake’s best man, offering up some words of wisdom before Aubrey says yes 23 times. The music video also contains a brief interlude featuring the potty-mouthed wedding singer from “The Hangover” (played by Dan Finnerty). Drake also refers to the ongoing case on the track “Sticky,” rapping: Drake forgoes any rapping on the lead single, which harkens back to the smooth tropical-house sound of the beloved 2017 track “ Passionfruit.”

While it seems like a safe bet this is a straightforward Thugger nod—ditto “dedicated to our brother V” in Drizzy’s poetic statement accompanying Honestly, Nevermind all but certainly meaning Virgil Abloh—it’s worth pointing out the Atlanta MC has been affectionately using the term slime in his work since time immemorial.

Initial reaction on the internet was divided, with some praising Drake for mixing it up on "Honestly, Nevermind" and others not really feeling it.

Drake shocked fans by announcing the release of his seventh studio album Honestly, Nevermind just hours before dropping at midnight last night.

This year? Was it last year? Texts go green, it hits a little different, don't it?

The Canadian superstar's new album is surprisingly full of house music, but his passive-aggressive complaints get dull.

You listen to him burbling away, as per usual, his self-aggrandisement jockeying for space with his constantly wounded ego – “what would you do without me?”, “you lie and a piece of me dies”, “if I was in your shoes I would hate myself” – and think: I know your audience lap it up, but aren’t you getting a bit bored with carrying on like this by now? The lyrics offer a constant drizzle of peevish discontent and how-very-dare-you accusation; conjuring up, for the umpteenth time, a stunted adolescent world in which – if he’s not telling you how wonderful he is, or having it off, or about to have it off – his feelings are perpetually injured, everything is always everyone else’s fault and it’s all so unfair. And yet, here’s Drake, with an album almost entirely predicated around four-to-the-floor rhythms – even the beatless, kalimba-driven Down Hill is only a kick drum away from house – and songs segue into each other as if part of a DJ mix.

The rapper's 14-track seventh studio album came out at midnight, about six hours after it was announced on social media.

That arrangement typically gives far greater control — and a much larger share of income — to the artist, and is also used by major acts like Adele, Taylor Swift and Beyoncé. “Honestly, Nevermind,” Drake’s seventh proper studio LP, was released to streaming services at midnight on Friday, having been officially announced only hours earlier on Drake’s social media accounts. For his newest one, the wait was about six hours.

The clip for 'Falling Back', which you can view below, sees the rapper marrying 23 women and at one point sees a “Free YSL” message appearing on screen, ...

I never factored this into the equation for the beginning of my next chapter, but thank you.” This sparked rumours that he was working on new music, though nothing was confirmed at the time. This was followed by a second post, outlining the tracklist.

Drake's latest release surprises in many ways, ditching bland trap for house beats and some daring, if somewhat mixed, vocal takes.

Mind you, these questionable high-pitch vocals return later on in the album, and are perfected by the time of the salsa-y ‘Tie That Binds’. In comparison to his last album ‘Certified Lover Boy’, which NME described as a “boring, bloated disappointment” where Drake sounded “dull and jaded”, at least he’s giving something else a go, y’know? Here, Drake’s vocals become monotonous and droning, and he reaches for a register desperately out of his grasp; the repetitive “falling back on me” line starts adorably, but quickly sours. But by utilising his endless experience as a melodic hitmaker and chart monster, ‘Honestly, Nevermind’ has all the makings of a summer smasher: get your Pimm’s pitchers and back garden barbecues at the ready.

The rapper's unexpected offering feels less like a special gift than a glorified mixtape where thinly sketched ideas are bunged together.

And it’s a reminder that, to become an essential rhymer again, Drake has to get back to his roots. The stereotype about Drake is that he’s the saddest rapper alive. But while the best surprise records – Beyoncé’s Lemonade, Swift’s Folklore and Evermore – lived up to the fuss, not every midnight drop is worth getting in a tizzy over. The contrast between the dancefloor-primed rhythms and the mopey lyrics occasionally verges on comedic. Dreadful cover aside, perhaps the most interesting thing about a very mediocre record is the fact Drake released it with just a few hours’ notice. Last year’s Certified Lover Boy came with an instantly notorious Damien Hirst montage of pregnant emojis and was widely ridiculed as sexist, garish and childish.

A DM from my 16-year-old brother read: “nah bruh Drake made an Abercrombie and Fitch playlist 😭.” Don’t know about all that, but what I do know is Drake, at his big age, still fantasizes about women lining up to be with him. After the ceremony is the reception, with tableaus of the wedding party seated like the Last Supper. Guests dance to the only hit in the whole thing — “Best I Ever Had (Wedding ver.).” Then, the whole party transforms into a dark, smokey oontz-oontz club, complete with lasers and blue lights. (It’s almost like he’s being annoying on purpose.) “It’s a good time for me,” Drake tells Thompson. “I’m ready to settle down, I’m in love.” To which the athlete replies, “You only get married once.” YOMO, everybody.

Drake used to be our Prince Hamlet – but on his underpowered new album he is a journeyman extra offering little more than background music.

Throughout his career he has shown a proclivity towards genuinely outstanding songs that get hips moving and legs shaking (“Take Care”, “One Dance”, “Passionfruit”). But back then he felt like our main character, a Prince Hamlet giving us summery grooves or else crying-in-the-club catharsis. Instead, much of his delivery falls flat and is uninspired, while his lyrics feel slightly embarrassing for a man in his mid-thirties (a personal favourite: “Calling me daddy/I taught you things that a father can’t teach”). Sure, there is much more exciting work happening in the dance world right now, but the swaying humidity of songs such as “Texts Go Green” and the gentle, choppy heat of “Sticky” ensures this album will be on plenty of summer playlists, and there is ample possibility for fun remixes.

It’s whack." My urge for revenge wins the game against my good guy inside every single time. "Know you miss the days when I was grippin' on it/ Know you're in a house tonight just thinkin' on it/ I moved on so long ago."

In a recent music video, Drake marries not one, but 23 women. But is the rapper actually engaged?

It will be interesting to see whether his new singles, and subsequent music videos, match the immense success of his previous albums. It looks for the most part like Drake indulging himself in a fantasy land of stunning women. Drake tends to stay very private when it comes to his dating life.
