May 3, 2016A grower but once you get into it you'll love it. People are afraid of Drakes success that why they're giving it low scores, listen to it yourself and then do that again and again and you'll love it

Apr 30, 2016This is one of those albums that will grow on most people after a few listens. Lyrically, it isn't too much different from his other projects, but he uses many different flows and sounds to get the same ideas across. He's still the greatest artist in hip hop and anything he touches becomes gold.
-
May 1, 2016At first the album seemed some what lackluster but like a lot of hip hop albums it grows on you. There are no songs on here I would skip after giving it a couple listens its really grown on me and I have enjoyed it more than any album I have listened to in a while. Certainly met the hype in my opinion.

May 2, 2016Drake realemnte can do albums !
It is incredible , from the composition of melody and finishing . Drake knew how to make a simple and strong and impactful lyrics album.
Maybe there was a little overstaffed content that do not particularly find interesting in one.
But that does not take away Merio this excellent work -

May 1, 2016This is the Take Care Drake we've wanted back for so long. 40 & Drake do their thing like only they can do. Fans of Trapper Drake should continue listening to If You're Reading This. Real fans of Drake since SFG will love it.

Apr 29, 2016Drake is the King of making music you can just Vibe to whether you paying close attention to the lyrics or not you can still vibe out to beat and da flow of the songs

Apr 30, 2016Epic, melodic & deep. A much needed Drizzy Album. Drake doesn't fail to amaze again.
Regarding it, "Sounding the same as every Drizzy Album" I cant agree with that. It feels more deep and melodic then the other Drake albums. -
Apr 29, 2016A wonderful addition to Drake's already well established discography. I'm on my 5th full listen. Fantastic production and just overall the vibes we have all been waiting for. If you have been a Drake fan since his early days, you won't be disappointed, you will enjoy this project very much. Up there with Take Care. Amazing.
-
Apr 30, 2016excellent album, very good collaborations, perfect rhythms, rap too good, has great tricks that make it a perfect album, congrats Drake for a good album.

Apr 29, 2016People will dislike this because it isn't the usual "Trap" Drake that he's been for the past year. That's honestly a good thing though. With Drake returning to his SFG/Take Care roots he's at his best.

Apr 29, 2016After 4 listens, this album was very cohesive. Standout tracks include Feel No Ways, With You (feat. Partynextdoor), among many others. Overall the production works very well with Drake's most honest album since Take Care.
-
Apr 29, 2016This album is incredible from start to finish. It's a perfect combination of production, slow jams and straight up bars. I think he's finally perfected his sound.
-
Apr 29, 2016Amazing. I loved this album, i am on my fourth listen right now and i don't know when ill stop. He has grown a lot as an artist, and while this album is a lot different then his previous ones, it is more cohesive sounding than anything he's ever made before. I love IYRTITL, but this album did a total 180 from it and i believe it'll pay off.
-
May 3, 2016Drake never disappoints me at any time. VIEWS is a perfect example of it. If you want to spend $15 on an album only on iTunes, it is worth it! Best song on there: One Dance.

May 1, 2016Drake's best work. His most textured, most ambitious, most mature release yet. If you don't get it, try listening to it more than once. Your one-listen reviews are destroying hip hop. 10/10 release, and the best rap album of the year so far.

May 1, 2016Good album. Good melodies. Good production. The lyrics are almost the same but a little better than Nothing was the same. He's versatile musician.

May 1, 2016Nice album with more lyrical songs. I think One Dance and Keep The Family Close are best song of the album. There is no new sound in the album but this latest effort of him is great!

Apr 29, 2016liked it but the tracklist could've been short, i already cut off Hotline Bling and Grammys 'cause Future is a **** rapper
My fave track is With You, pnd & Drake always creating bops -
Apr 29, 2016This album is everything I wanted it to be. Nice production, lyrical and has some R&B in it. Nice job Drizzy! This reminds me of Take Care, it has that same vibe I love it!!

May 2, 2016great music fantastic flow. Drake delivered as promised. People only hate it cause he doesn't rap on half his songs but thats not who he is. He is more than just rap but still has great bars
-
Apr 30, 2016A very strong album. Softer than WATTBA and IYARTITL, but Drake's vocals are showcased. Drake is creating his own genre. I would recommend this to all my Drake fans and all fans of dope music.
-
Apr 30, 2016the production, the lyrics, the idea and overarching theme behind this album is genius. Listen to what Drake is saying and maybe you too can find meaning.
-
Dec 15, 2016this album is so underrated, i have lived with this album for months and i love the climate of Toronto tying it together meaning the seasonal change, went from winter to spring summer then autumn back to winter. drake deliver a simple easily digestible piece. He is a legend of this generation

Apr 30, 2016Très bon album, le flow est maîtrisé, les feat. sont en parfaite harmonie avec Drake. Avec If You're Reading This It's Too Late, Drake avait placé la barre assez haute. Et pourtant, il arrive à la surpasser avec cet opus. On pouvait penser que l'album serait plus orienté pop avec les énormes tubes Hotline Bling & One Dance et pourtant se sont les rares pistes pop de Views. Well done Drizzy!
-
May 3, 2016Good overall and i wasn't expecting an album full of club bangers. It reminds me a lot about take care. nice to listen to when doing household work and just taking an break from life.
-
Apr 30, 2016I enjoyed the album...It was about 75% singing but it wasn't anything that I wouldn't expect from Drake. Drake has not necessarily grown as a artist and some of the instrumentation on the album aren't very cohesive...it jumps from hard rap to the next song him crooning about a women.
-
Apr 30, 2016The album is significantly good. However, some tracks are too large with too instrumental. And the album, in my view, is not to represent hip hop Toronto ...
-
May 1, 2016Ok so first let me just say I hate drake. And not a fan. But this album makes me change my mind about all my hate I have about drake because these powerful lyrics actully makes sense and gets you into the beat of all the songs. These songs touched my emotions and now I feel bad a bout hating on drake 9/10 only problem is hotline bling and summer intorlude

Apr 30, 2016Different, but very good. Some amazing songs, only thing would make it better is if there were
more features and maybe one or two more rap/banger songs! -
May 1, 2016Basically, if you're into Drake's current sound, you'll really like this album. If you're expecting something different or new, you won't like it as much.

May 2, 2016Classic drake album that proves why he is still at the top of the rap game. There was so much hype and pressure on this album and he still delivered a solid album that would've received better reviews if there wasn't so much anticipation, like how he did with IYRTITL.

May 4, 2016To be honest not drakes best work but still amazing. Its not as capturing as his recent work and takes a lot of warming up to but a very satisfsctory effort once given a chance. He gives to us his usual self with a few twists and turns. Theres something for everyone in this album
-
Oct 20, 201675/100. After a little while this album has grown on me, listening to the songs more than a few times makes for a better understanding of how Drake wants you to feel. Try it out.

Jun 25, 2016This album is amazing!I loved every song and I have the album on repeat since it was released.Congratulations Drake for continuing being on #1 on Billboard.I recommend this album to everyone!
-
Dec 16, 2016As a Drake fan, I can say that this is his worst album, but his worst album is still listenable. I feel the album carries on too long. If you're coming into it looking for something like If You're Reading This it's too late, you will heavily be disappointed.
-
Mar 20, 2017Drake's most cohesive and experimental album to date proves itself worthy of the title of a classic. The intro sets the tone for the rest of the album, and does that job very well. 40's production is what stands out the most, when mixed with Drake'a vocals, it proves to be a dangerous combination. For a 4th studio album, Drake has exceeded expectations.

Nov 3, 2021With this album, I became a fan of Drake and of course his rhythms. My favorite songs without a doubt "One Dance" & "Too Good". I mainly liked the change of rhythms and the variety. Maybe it's too late to give a review, but this is really a great album.
-
Apr 28, 2020coming from a huge drake fan, y’all condemned this project for it to age like fine wine. now in 2020, this changed music as we know it and gave us a summer we’ll never ever forget. all thanks to Views kicking it off April 29, 2016.

MojoJun 28, 2016Drake's genuinely fleet-footed flows and sly humour prevent his pained introspection descending into a cheesy whine fest. [Aug 2016, p.95]
-
Q MagazineMay 31, 2016The middle section boast a tougher, truculent edge reminiscent of last year's mixtape If You're Reading This It's Too Late. But it's during the final sequence that everything clicks. [#361, p.114]
-
May 10, 2016Eventually, people will get tired of the same old song if it's sung too often. On Views, Drake is starting to sound a little weary of it himself.
