Imagine waking up in the morning smelling the aroma of breakfast being prepared at your grandmothers and as you run downstairs a flood of joy instantly fills you. Drake and 21 Savage has created that very feeling, they have served us a breakfast for champions, and we are them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diving right into it, \u201cRich Flex\u201d had no choice but to be the opening song on the album. Instantly your eyes widen as the tempo of the angel\u2019s harmony rises and just when you start to feel you body lifting\u2026the beat disrupts everything. And now your rocking back and forth viciously for the next three mins. Or \u201cMajor Distribution\u201d that enters with a soft piano creating the feeling of love at first site, putting you in a daydream but for only 30 seconds then shakes you out our sleep with a thunderous beat that feel like a kiss from your crush. Even sampling the hit 90s song \u201cGive Me Your Lov\u2019n\u201d by B.G.O.T.I. in \u201cSpin Bout U\u201d gave me the feeling of riding in a 1980 Monte Carlo but after mixing in the wave of their new school music changed that old engine into a V8 inside. If you like albums that provoke different feelings and emotions \u201cHer Loss\u201d is just for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Taking it back to 2018 with his \u201cScorpion\u201d album. If you knew that Drake then with the diversity he had during that time, having not only his normal love flow over a sorrow beat, but his jock charisma as well. Then the Drake now is the 2.0 version of that. His last album \u201cHonestly, Never mind\u201d made me feel as if he held back the icing on a cupcake, his name being the cupcake and the album being the icing. But after this was released, I see why he held back and just brutally dumped the whole tub on one cupcake!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHer Loss\u201d could have easily been another Drake solo album but adding 21 Savages drill rap style and Atlanta demeanor, they turned a horse in a stallion. The energy they both bring to that table has turned out to be one of the best duos of our time. With 21 Savage wearing the tough lifestyle on his shoulders, Drake not just as an artist but as a producer took 21 words that could possibly seem menacing to others and twisted into something casual and loving. Like in my favorite song on the album \u201cHours in Silence\u201d he says, \u201cI got a 30 on my waist, cause a lotta broke n***** \u2018round the way\u2019 \u2018round town and they lookin\u2019 for my face.\u201d Just by reading instant thought he saying he need to keep his gun on him cause people will kill for money but when you listen, you will hear how he effortlessly support the negative content in what he saying by calmly singing the verse over a beat with high enthusiasm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the album is not a \u201cno skip,\u201d like his album \u201cNothing Was The Same\u201d released back in 2013. Each song on that album delivered the homework that was due, not one song could be skipped and not one song gave me the feeling to call my girl and let her know I was coming home. \u201cHer Loss\u201d has a couple hit or miss songs like \u201cCirco Loco\u201d or \u201cBroke Boys.\u201d These songs hang at the bottom of the totem pole simply cause when they first got played I did not get stuck, my head did not tell my finger to wait but 14\/16 is still a A!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you look the title of the album is called \u201cHer Loss\u201d but what I like so much about this album is that it contradicts with some of the songs on it. You would think it would have songs about guys don\u2019t need women, they need us, we all superior! But \u201cSpin Bout U\u201d presses the idea that I\u2019ll do anything for my girl. Same in \u201cTreacherous Twins\u201d the two specifically say \u201cyou my treacherous lil\u2019 twin, and you know that we locked in, and I love you.\u201d Interesting right? Going in the album you have that one thought, but it will continue to change, \u201cman is it her loss or\u2026my loss?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
