Long-simmering rumors of a beef between Drake and Kanye West, literal neighbors, mostly fizzled since their collaborative track “Glow,” from Drake’s previous album, More Life. But in the lead-up to the releases of Scorpion and West’s ye, their relationship soured again and, as a result, rekindled the Pusha T feud Drake inherited from Lil Wayne. Mom...
Few musicians have any business making a double album. It’s a lot of music to digest and speaks to a lack of self-editing. Despite living in a world where more songs equals more streams, plenty of artists are embracing a “less is more” approach. Even for those operating at their peak, like Drake was on Scorpion, you need a good reason. And the Cana...
Scorpion’s first disc is a masterclass in beat-riding and flows. And at just over 40 minutes, it’s infectious and crisp. Once he sets the stage, Drake is headstrong and ambivalent on “Emotionless” and “I’m Upset,” addressing the elephant in the room by acknowledging the role the feud has played in his story without allowing it to dominate the album...

The Nicki Minajsample on “That’s How You Feel” is something of a bittersweet wink.
Scorpionis the sound of Drake getting everything right: the singles, the sequencing, the beef, the scandal, and the celebrity. It’s everything we love from our greatest rappers. Drake is still a kingmaker. Ask Memphis producer Tay Keith or the beatmaker behind “In My Feelings,” TrapMoneyBenny. Or PartyNextDoor. It’s hard-hitting raps over eclectic ...

Apr 16, 2018 · More Life featured a coterie of rising stars and rap heavyweights to create a largely jovial and party-like atmosphere, but Scorpion — Drake’s loneliest-sounding album since 2013’s ruminative Nothing Was the Same — is pure and uncut ego, cranking his hardest-to-like personality traits up to 11.
