Drake – Scorpion
Released: 29 June 2018
Scorpion is a return to form by Drake. Drake showcases a full range of vocal talents, providing listeners with two discs worth of music, including hearty servings of rap braggadocio with sides of R&B flavor – there’s even an Aaliyah interpolation and posthumous Michael Jackson feature here on Scorpion.
However, Scorpion is not without its cringeworthy moments, bars and punchlines (“I am not with the RARA/ I am a DADA/”) but it’s easily the best Drake project since If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late (2015) and Drake’s best studio album in 5 years – since Nothing Was The Same (2013).
VERDICT: B
Scorpion is better than both Views and More life. A solid double album and the best album in years by Drake.
