It's been 9 months since Drake's last album, Certified Lover Boy, began racing up the streaming charts.

Fans hoping to get some early details on the album could probably do worse than to tune in. And while said album wasn’t quite the multi-platinum chart burner that Drake’s earlier discography achieved, it was still moderately critically well-received and commercially successful. (We’ll say this: Thank God Drake provided the actual name of the album alongside the image, or we’d still be sitting here guessing what the dang thing was called.)

5 takeaways from Drake's new album "Honestly, Nevermind" (Los Angeles Times)

What you need to know about Drake's new sadboi rave album, 'Honestly, Nevermind'. Drake. Just nine months after Drake released his sixth album ...

After a dozen tracks of disassociated raving, Drake finally gets his blood pressure up with “ Jimmy Cooks,” an old-school Drake rap song with a guest verse from 21 Savage — the only billed cameo on the album’s tracklist. Yes, every Drake record is about being rich and sad in the VIP at 4 a.m. But “Honestly, Nevermind” sounds like he’s wobbly on ketamine at Panorama Bar in Berlin. Black Coffee’s influence is strong, all relentless four-on-the-floors and filter-scrubbed synth chords. “If I was in your shoes I would hate myself,” he sings. The recent disco explosion in pop brought effervescence and bounce to the top 40. Drake is pop music’s most famous genre burglar — from U.K. grime to drill to Afrobeats and Jamaican dub patois. It’s almost entirely a front-to-back club record of deep house music, shot through with his typical malaise.

Drake's 'Sticky' Strikes Comforting Territory in Unusual Evolution (Rolling Stone)

There are only two rap songs, “Sticky” and the 21 Savage collaboration “Jimmy Cook's.” The rest finds Drake singing in an earnest, winsome voice reminiscent of ...

If Honestly, Nevermind’s deployment of Afrobeats flows is too jarring, try “Sticky” as a taster first. It finds Drake spitting over a deep and thumping beat produced by Gordo and Ry X, going hard in the club while offering the usual personal asides: “My momma wish I woulda went corporate, she wish I woulda went exec/I still turned into a CEO, so the lifestyle she respect.” He riffs “Free Big Slime out the cage” in homage to Young Thug’s incarceration, shouts out the late Virgil Abloh (whose voice is sampled at the end of the track), and admits that after all the world-conquering antics, it’s still “you alone with your regrets.” It’s familiar and comforting territory for an audience still processing Drake’s sudden, unusual evolution. Even more shocking was the album itself.

Drake Seemingly Shows Young Thug Support Amid YSL RICO ... (Complex)

While it seems like a safe bet this is a straightforward Thugger nod—ditto “dedicated to our brother V” in Drizzy’s poetic statement accompanying Honestly, Nevermind all but certainly meaning Virgil Abloh—it’s worth pointing out the Atlanta MC has been affectionately using the term slime in his work since time immemorial. Everybody please sign the ‘Protect Black Art’ petition and keep praying for us. I love you all.”

Drake Drops Wedding-Themed “Falling Back” Video Featuring ... (Complex)

Drake has dropped off the music video for “Falling Back,” which is featured on his surprise album 'Honestly, Nevermind.' Director X handled the visuals.

“Free YSL” is of course in reference to Young Thug, Gunna, and several others recently being arrested on RICO charges in Georgia. The Canadian artist also seemingly brought up the high-profile RICO case on his new album. The project is 14-tracks long and features just 21 Savage. Drake’s last album, 2021’s Certified Lover Boy, contained several more features than Honestly as it boasted appearances from Young Thug, Lil Baby, Lil Durk, Jay-Z, Travis Scott, Future, Giveon, Yebba, Tems, Ty Dolla Sign, Lil Wayne, and more.

Drake's new album Honestly, Nevermind is sparking some debate ... (British GQ)

From heartbroken club tracks to a sample from the late Virgil Abloh, Honestly, Nevermind is honestly, not what you might expect from Drake's new album.

Death, taxes and a new Drake album to get the internet fighting are the only things we can be certain of in this life. In terms of how it's sounding, Honestly, Nevermind, is honestly, not what you might expect after the fairly underwhelming 2021 album Certified Lover Boy, a record which felt like the Canadian rapper rehashing the same riffs and playing it a little too safe. Yesterday saw the release of Honestly, Nevermind, the latest album from Drizzy and a drop which landed midnight on Friday 17 June.
