This is Drake's absolute best project imo
I revisited his entire discography in December/January, and I got a ton of replay value out of this
At 17 tracks and just over one hour of runtime, it feels fairly long imo, but it barely has any filler. I could think of maybe very few that I don't particularly like (Madonna, 6 God), but the rest of them are impeccable. The hooks are memorable (I don't think anyone can forget "Runnin' thru the 6 wit my woes"). My only problem with his flow is that he gets a tad shouty at times, but its a minor nitpick.
The greatest triumph of the project is the atmosphere it creates. At this point I'm gonna have to call it the DrakeTM atmosphere, that sultry fusion of R&B and hip hop mixed with references to Toronto culture stands out on tracks like Preach, Company or Wednesday Night Interlude. Have to credit PND and Boi1da for this, I think they produced a majority of the tracks
Elite project, I don't think it has aged at all. Favourite tracks are No Tellin, Company and Star67

I’ll probably get downvoted asf for this but it is what it is. I have officially listened to all of Drake’s albums in terms of the ones that are available on Spotify, Out of (So Far Gone, Thank me later, Take Care, Nothing Was The Same, What A Time To Be Alive, Views, More Life, Scorpion, Dark Lane Demo Tapes, Certified Lover Boy.) If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late is the worst one. A lot of the songs on this album sounded the same. The production just wasn’t hitting for me like it usually does. Now I’m not saying this is the worst album of all time or anything but i definitely think it’s the weakest one out of all the albums i’ve listed above.
The only songs i really enjoyed were Energy (Heard this one before) Wednesday Night Interlude, Now & Forever, You & The 6 and 6PM In New York.
The songs i thought were ok was (Used to, 6 Man, Company (Travis feature saved this one) and Jungle.

Ranking: #5
Our subreddit voted on their favorite albums according to decades and broad genres (and sometimes just overarching themes). There was some disagreement here and there, but it was a fun process, allowing us to put together short lists of top albums. [The whole shebang is chronicled here!] (//rateyourmusic.com/list/Zhanteimi/album-discussion-club/) So now we're randomly exploring the top 10s, shuffling up all the picks and seeing what comes out each week. This should give us all plenty of fodder for discussion in our Club. I'm using the [list randomizer on random.org] (//www.random.org/lists/) to shuffle. So here goes the next pick...
