May 2, 2016I myself was disappointed in this album, after how long it took and how disappointing his 2015 projects were, i was pretty damn let down by this album, views from the 6? more like views from the 6/20
-
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 2, 2016what was he thinking? bland, repetitive, lifeless, devoid of energy or creativity. just heavily pop or dancehall influenced tracks with **** forgettable bars and a near-complete lack of impressive moments that used to fill drake albums. its a typical drake album without the typical drake quality. trash.
-
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
-
May 2, 2016Views is in fact pretty much all hype and no substance. The production is nice but even that isn't outstanding, just a revisit of earlier modes and styles of sound. Very disappointing and lazy album.
-
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 2, 2016Drake ain't developing. Always the same...Less crying & singing, more rapping please. Album is wack. I'm giving 2 coz "9" and "Hype" were good. The rest is trash.

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, 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 1, 2016Found it weak, basic, repetitive in its beat. Seems like he has been doing the same thing for all his albums, time to change it up. I was expecting something more sense it has been four albums since his best album, "Take Care."
-
May 1, 2016
-
May 1, 2016lame trap beats with uninspired production and average lyrics. Drake's VIEWS are limited and show his one dimensionality as a rapper and failure to branch out from his traditional style and make his work more interesting
-
May 1, 2016Lazy album which lacks his once creative touch. I feel like the album is too consumed into creating memorable lyrics that it forgets about memorable music. I would not adivse to purchase or even stream - I'm sure (hope) the hype for the album will simmer down and Drake gets back to his old style.

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

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 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.
-
May 1, 2016Dull, Tedious, Boring, Monotonous, Repetitious, Uneventful
This album us a tiresome journey that you can't wait to be over even before it really starts. -
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!
-
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.
-
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!

Apr 30, 2016When first listening to the able i was under the assumption that there will be bars on every song, I was wrong. Pop style was the only the song where drake wasn't trying to be a **** Canadian Frank Ocean. THE EMPEROR HAS NEW CLOTHES

Apr 30, 2016THIS ALBUM IS PERFECT !!!!
Drake is King. Too Good, Controlla and One Dance are HOLLY FVKING TRINITY. Every song is masterpiece. Anyway I really love it. Well done Drizzy !!!!! -
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 30, 2016The album is way too long. It was dreadful getting through the whole thing. It also sounds very redundant. Same sounds, same vocals, same beats. Being the biggest rapper, drake has the spotlight on him and unfortunately he did not deliver. And this is coming from a drake fan
-
Apr 30, 2016
-
Apr 30, 2016An album that could definitely benefit from some resequencing and fat-trimming of the filler cuts from a tracklist that is bloated, sluggish and boring, with a few moments of brilliance and some excellent standout tracks.

Apr 30, 2016This is pretty much Drake's worst album, It's boring, rushed, and just repetitive. The best songs on the album were already released before the album. I gave it a 3 star to be nice

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 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.
-

Apr 30, 2016Not a bad album, has a couple songs I really like. Most are very mediocre unfortunately. There was no growth at all from Drake, I find it hard to believe this took 2 years to make. Underwhelming and generic for the most part.
-

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, 2016I am a drake fan. for sure. I wanted to love this album like all his past ones... I truly did........but this album sucked. I've listened to it 5 times trying so hard to get into it. its not working for me. sorry, bruh.

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.
-
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 ...
-
Apr 30, 2016Overall this album is really boring and shows no growth what so ever from Drake. He's to scared to take risks and it feels like another redundant Drake album that we haven't heard before.
-
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, 2016Decent Production. Bad Songwriting. = Overall underwhelming and disappointing album. Quantity over quality for sure is the mantra of this album. Pablo continues to hold the album of the year crown. One Dance is the best song of album

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! -
Apr 30, 2016Only good songs on the album are One Dance and Too Good. Could have been better with more relevant features. Probably one with Nicki Minaj? It does not beat his previous efforts.
-
Apr 30, 2016This n*gga is not for me. I don't want to hate, just sayin' I don't like this **** I mean, all the falsetto and soft beats....ain't hip hop. 20 songs and all have this n*gga singing falsetto. I mean, you have Pimp c on the album and even that track is WEAK. Who is ridin' listening to this album? Girls and fakes, I could see. But this ain't for me and I ain't buyin'.

Apr 29, 2016Esperava muito mais. Acho que com tantas expectativas acabei me frustando com um álbum tão fraco.
espero gostar com o tempo, mas até o momento não me desceu -
Apr 29, 2016Not his best. In fact, If You're Reading This It's Too Late and Take Care are more interesting listens than this. The die hard drake fans will enjoy, but it won't be a big album for the casual fan.
-

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, 2016A very mediocre effort, something everyone should be used to from drake. album is bloated and lacks cohesion. a lot of cringe worthy bars and weak flows. being unchallenged as the biggest name in rap really hasn't helped him

Apr 29, 2016After 3 full listens: Favorite song is U With Me. Theres some parts in some songs that stick out to me but theres not really any songs as a whole that stick out. The singing sounds a bit forced and is kinda boring and the lyrics are really lacking. He says a lot of the same stuff but without the flare.
-
Apr 29, 2016

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, 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, 2016While a little slower than I would have liked, Drake continues to show his dominance with this smooth, undeniably catchy album. Views has excellent production, a great mood and rhythm, and some genuinely great songs. The more I listen to the album, the more I enjoy it, just don't go in expecting straight bangers.

Apr 29, 2016Congrats Drake. Just when I thought your newer music couldn't get any worse you dumped this load of steaming hot garbage. Probably the worst album of the year so far, the flow in the songs is messy and really doesn't leave me wanting to come back to listen again. To be fairly honest it makes me want to stab myself.
-
Apr 29, 2016Honest to god,this album is actually darn solid. Just didn't live up to its immense-we're-talking-one-of-the-largest-of-the-decade level of hype that's all.
-
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, 2016I was very disappointed i expected so much more, Drake barley raps on this. The sound is all over the place one second its rap ,than r n b, then reggie it just comes of as unfinished. Additionally this has the most mediocre tracks out of any drake project
-
Apr 29, 2016Drake goes WAY to safe on this on. This album literally lulled me to sleep. Nothing new or exciting on this album. If you are looking for bangers similar to the ones on "If You Are Reading this It's Too Late" you will not find them here.

Apr 29, 2016Did not live up to the hype of the apple promotion. Disshoveled and out of place tracks, songs that could have been from his old albums no clear path or creative meaning, gotta say as a drake fan this is one of his worst album. I hope he learns from this mistake in the future and evolves
-
Apr 29, 2016
-
Apr 29, 2016No clear direction and atleast 14 of the songs sounded like fillers he just threw in. I cannot stress how repetitive this album is, from the content to the lack of direction. Very messy and slight boring at times. No exciting factor. I have to say the hype for this album was merely hype and the album didnt live up to the hype.
-
Apr 29, 2016
-
Apr 29, 2016I've listened to all the songs and none of them stood out. Infact it sounds like most of his previous albums. No evolving and shallow lyrics. No direction and no creativity. Have to say Im very disappointed

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.
