There’s not one song here that stands out, not one chorus that’s catchy enough to grab your attention, not one beat fun enough to get you up and on your feet. Especially compared to his previous club, tropical house and dancehall-influenced songs - which aren’t always great, but can be a lot of fun and well timed to break up an album - each song on Honestly, Nevermind is a very clear cut below, if not multiple levels worse. The problem, beyond Drake segmenting some of his fanbase, is that the beats selected and the lines delivered are so watered down, so lazy and so unoriginal that there is nothing whatsoever that draws you in. And not just once, but 13 times across 52 minutes.ĭrake has had some success with dance tracks in the past, but on his seventh studio album, Honestly, Nevermind, he deserts almost all elements of hip-hop and trap music to fully embrace dance beats. But for some reason Drake felt the need to answer. These are questions nobody has ever asked themselves. What would “One Dance” be like if you removed the memorable upbeat vocals and gave it a pre-set Fruity Loops Studio dance track? What would happen if you took “Passionfruit,” removed the fun character of it and threw it on top of a watered down tropical house beat?
