Dass darauf genau 22 Tracks sind ist auch kein Zufall, den damit könnte er der Künstler mit den meisten US Hot 100 Entries in einer Woche/von einem Album werden.<br><br>Während ich den Hype um Ed Sheeran komplett verstehe und ich es schön finde, dass er die Charts so mit Tracks überflutet, hört mein Verständnis bei Drake auf. Viele Songs auf "More Life" plätschert einfach vor sich hin, wie man es von Drake schon gewohnt ist. Aber vielleicht ist das auch sein Geheimrezept? Es sind Songs, die man auf Spotify & Co. im Hintergrund laufen lassen kann, ohne gross gestört zu werden, und so hat er eben auch viele Streams... bei mir klappt das nur bedingt. Der Grossteil der Songs sind bei mir immerhin im knapp durchschnittlichen 3er Bereich, nur "Get It Together" sticht leicht hervor, vielleicht auch noch "Passionfruit". Sonst ein recht langweiliges Werk, welches zudem deutlich schwächer als "Views" ist. | | *** Wat een matige plaat! Logisch dat je met dit soort nummers niet durft op te treden. | | * VRESELIJK.<br>Dit zal snel weer voorbij zijn. | | *** There is a term in finance called the law of diminishing returns, and, were it put into musical terms, I feel it is a term that applies to Drake. Drake was a breath of fresh air when he first started making waves around 2009, and there was something appealing about his moody introspection. But now, having reached his fifth studio album (and that isnt even to mention his five mixtapes and two projects as part of Young Money), the appeal that was there to begin with has, as the term suggests, diminished.<br><br>Now, you may ask, if that is the case, then isnt any artist that has been around for the same time (or even longer) a victim of this too? To that, I say no. Because really, and this may just be me, but Im not seeing any development from him as an artist. I cant really find much to distinguish many of his albums from one another, and if I were to return to his older albums, I dont think I would see the original appeal of them simply due to his oversaturation in the music scene right now.<br><br>And that would almost be fine, but given how influential Drake is, every artist wants to sound like him. That isnt Drakes fault after all. I mean, who doesnt want to jump on an easily reproducible sound that is big in the current moment? But the thing is, to be a truly great artist, you have to keep reinventing yourself. Perhaps not everyone I should say, there are some artists who have such an iconic sound that they can get away with repetition. Drake, though, isnt one of those artists. Theres nothing particularly amazing about his sound, which means that he is a guy that would have to change his sound up to be remembered as a truly great artist a decade or so after he has finished making music. But his stubbornness in keeping to this sound (which is understandable given the continuing success he has had) means hes back there with the rest of the pack, with nothing to tell him apart other than name value.<br><br>Maybe if there is one album of his that stands out from the rest, it would be Views, his album prior to this one. The reason that one stands out to me though is a negative one the lyrics. Oh boy, you should have listened to some of the bars he dropped on that one, even the most dedicated Drake fans couldnt forgive them. There is Chaining Tatum to the Chrysler and Bentley line to the Cheesecake Factory story, and theres so much more.<br><br>And the worst thing of all is that he was saying it with a straight face as if this was really serious to him. At least when someone like Macklemore is being corny, he completely owns it, but it sounds like some of the cringeworthy lines he dropped on Views he thought were absolute fire.<br><br>The music on "Views" is worthy of a mention as well. It was probably his most dull album in that sense, and there wasnt all that much for me to get myself into. I actually enjoyed his dancehall songs the most from that album, One Dance and Controlla. But while Macklemore is still in your mind, that raises the question why is Macklemores rapping cultural appropriation (a point which I definitely appreciate, but doesnt really impact my view on his music), while the same people seem to let Drakes use of Jamaican slide uncriticised? Ive been reading about this a little recently, and while that whole topic is well beyond this review and I dont give any answers here, it turns out, in Drakes hometown of Toronto, Caribbean culture has seeped into many aspects of mainstream language, food, and music ( https://genius.com/a/is-drake-s-dancehall-obsession-homage-or-exploitation). I wont harp on about that too much though, because if it really is as prevalent in Toronto culture as Ive read it is, then maybe he is just paying homage to it.<br><br>And that all leads us to this new album. Or mixtape. Or playlist. Honestly, I dont know what it is, Ive seen it marketed a few ways, but Ill go with the latter. Nineteen85, who frequently works with Drake says hes [Drake's] trying to call it a playlist because he has a bunch of people in a space, hanging out
. Hes so aware of what everybody else is doing musically that he likes to introduce new music and new artists to the rest of the world ( https://genius.com/albums/Drake/More-life). Honestly, Im not really seeing the difference between this and an album, other than maybe Drakes PR team trying to spin that he is taking advantage of how people currently listen to music through streaming services and that this transcends a typical album and is changing the way we listen to music, or some crap like that.<br><br>And in reference to his use of Jamaican culture in his music, we have the title More Life, which is a song from dancehall artist Vybz Kartel. And its just great to see Drake shine a spotlight on lesser-known artists and give them some attention
*checks Vybz Kartels More Life streaming numbers on Spotify*
or not.<br><br>Having heard the song that, at least in some way, inspired this album, I can see a connection. The phrase more life is the first half of the Jamaican phrase more life, more strength, which is a phrase used to wish someone well. And I can see how this threads through the album, giving it a concept of a vague sort.<br><br>And, pretty much as expected, More Life is a step up from Views.<br><br>But elsewhere though, Im not seeing the appeal of what turned out being a very average album.<br><br>I mean, I see some potential here. I think it has all the hallmarks of being a good album without actually being one. You have a more cohesive storyline (for lack of a better word), some features from highly esteemed artists (the Sampha and Young Thug features really caught my eye on the first look at the track listing) and the album is serious in a way, or to phrase it another way, he was trying to deliver a message with it. But it never gets there.<br><br>And before we go further, I can see why these featuring artists are needed, and that is because he seems so desperately out of ideas at this point that he needs to bring some other people along to add some new perspective to his droning.<br><br>For many of the songs here, I just dont have all that much to say about them just because there are so many tracks that lack a standout quality.<br><br>We get an unexpected intro on Free Smoke, a brag track which I cant take all that seriously because he keeps saying Free Shmoke in the chorus with an h. You could call that a minor thing to fuss over, but it is stuck right there in the chorus so you have to go through it a couple of times. There are some decent bars here which cast a light on his public life, but at this stage, this album/playlist feels like a mixtape in terms of vocal delivery.<br><br>Passionfruit sounds simple, almost like YouTube tutorial music (thanks to TheDoubleAgent for making that observation), albeit YouTube tutorial music with high-quality production values. It has a calming mood which the rest of the album strives for but just doesnt achieve. I can see why it was made the lead single.<br><br>It also has a cool play on words, with the first three lines of the chorus using words which start with pass. The track overall isnt setting my world on fire, but it is one of the highlights of the album.<br><br>It is nice to hear Samphas voice on 4422 (whose album I hope to review eventually), it is a voice that I would like to hear on more features. Its just a shame that the rest of the song is as dull as a doorknob.<br><br>Im happy when Skepta Interlude plays, because it feels like Im listening to another (better) album at that point. Its just a shame that it isnt any longer.<br><br>And that really was a problem that by the halfway point of this album, it still hadnt left any impression on me. It was just another instance of okay, Drake is doing this again, going through the motions and it just feels like a journey I had taken too many times before.<br><br>It was at this point where I had a look to see what was yet to come, and I remembered that the Young Thug features were yet to happen. I was looking forward to them because he tends to add a little lunacy to the songs he features on, but he is incredibly subdued on Sacrifices. He is almost indistinguishable from Drake here, and it is almost as if Drake gave Young Thug instructions to be as tame as possible just so he isn't outshone by his featuring artist. Maybe this is just Drake dragging everyone down to his level.<br><br>I would have liked Teenage Fever, but then this bizarre J-Lo lyric sample pops up and it just doesnt feel right.<br><br>KMT is just crap. The acronym is reminiscent of a lyric used by Jennifer Hudson in that Iggy Azalea song. It sounded stupid then, and it doesnt sound any less stupid now. Giggs drops some pretty shoddy bars as well.<br><br>There is a segment at the end of Cant Have Everything that sounds like it is trying to be Be Yourself from Frank Oceans Blonde. You know, just worse though.<br><br>I really dont like Kanyes flow on Glow, especially the way he incorporates the names of past songs (both from himself and Drake) into his verses. As a side note, that may the one main problem I have with Kanyes music. Almost all of his solo stuff is excellent, but his features arent all that memorable for the most part. Other than that, I dont mind the outro of that song.<br><br>Fake Love is the worst here, he just sounds awful and incredibly whiny. I still dislike it quite a bit, but most of the songs on the record arent much better.<br><br>Young Thug starts to sound more like his regular self on Ice Melts (still not entirely though), but by that point, its too little, too late. At the very least though, it is one of the better songs on the album, and I like the production values on show.<br><br>Do Not Disturb, the final song on the record, is actually a really well-written song that draws me in, its almost as if he (or his ghostwriters) turn the pen into a wand for the 5-minute duration of this track and I only wish there was a lot more of that on the album. It just leaves me thinking about how much better this album could have been if there were more of that.<br><br>I think there are some obvious areas for improvement, at least for me anyway.<br><br>One, I want to hear something other than his dull droning and humming next time. Im still confused as to how his monotonous monotone became the sound that everyone fell in love with.<br><br>Two, he just needs to make more concise and focused albums rather than these 20-song long projects. It would just pack more of a punch as these last couple of projects just seem to drag on and on. Its all about making an impact, and I think shorter, sharper ideas could go a long way.<br><br>I thought I might get something different from Drake, considering the title of the album, because youd think for an album that has the word life in the title, hed actually show some of it. Unfortunately, we got More Life-less in the end.<br><br>FAV TRACKS: PASSIONFRUIT, SKEPTA INTERLUDE, ICE MELTS, DO NOT DISTURB<br><br>LEAST FAV TRACK: FAKE LOVE<br><br>5/10 Last edited: 11/05/2017 15:10 | | *** Hier scheint alles gesagt zu sein..... Mehr ist nicht zu sagen.... | | **** Das erste "Playlistalbum" von Drake. Es ist eigentlich eher ein Mixtape, jedoch auch mit vielen Gastbeiträgen. Drake hat unter anderem auch Jorja Smith und Skepta ins Spotlight gerückt, eigentlich ein cooler Move von ihm. Es ist sehr lange (über 80 Min) und als ganzes Projekt ist es eher anstrengend, jedoch findet man viele gute Songs, die man einzeln gut hören kann. | | **** Bis auf einige Hänger ein sauber produziertes Trap-Album. | | **** Gelungenes drake-album mal wieder. Meine highlights sind fake love, passionfruit, madiba riddim und portland. |  |  |
