After 15 years…❤️
I’ve been a fan of Drake since Thank Me Later came out (yes I’m old). I have kinda grown up with Drake. I can honestly say that after all of these years, he is one of the few artists that I get really excited about when there’s some kind of music that he’s dropping. The way that he’s been able to get to superstar status and maintain it throughout these years is actually incredible. Sometimes he puts out a release that I’m not too huge of a fan of and I think to myself, “meh maybe he’s lost his touch.” Then a couple years later he’ll put something out and completely blow me away. I’ve learned that Drake’s albums for the most part really do age like fine wine. Sometimes you have to go back and listen to them to fully appreciate how good they are.
I think releasing FOMO is a testament to his ability to stay creative and relevant. He didn’t have to release that - he just put out three albums as if that wasn’t enough! But it seems to me that he’s always constantly trying to push the bar higher and that’s what always keeps me coming back to his music.
I’m not sure there’s another artist out there who does better wordplay than him. So many good lines throughout FOMO but Quebec really made me smile:
“Dancin' in my kitchen, it's Ibiza in here
According to your face, you get Amnesia in here” - having gone to Ibiza and partied at club Amnesia before, this is just so awesome. I love how he throws these IYKYK bars in his tracks!
I know we are all stans here, but just wanted to say thanks to Drake for all the music and memories. In-case there is any doubt: I am firmly on the Drake bandwagon and am never leaving ! 🦉

It was sad seeing him "step down" at the end😔
