Drake Honestly Nevermind review

Drake, Honestly, Nevermind: REVIEW

“No one could have predicted Drizzy’s first foray into dance music. It is a bold choice, especially coming from an artist who vehemently avoided hopping on a David Guetta track.”

Drake, Honestly, Nevermind (OVO/Republic)

No one in hip hop has had a run quite like Drake. After 11 #1 projects over a 12-year period, what is left for him to say or prove? Although mostly enjoyable, his last offering Certified Lover Boy was the first time it felt as if nothing new was brought to the table. You knew exactly what to expect. Eight months later, no one could have predicted Honestly, Nevermind, Drizzy’s first foray into dance music. It is a bold choice, especially coming from an artist who vehemently avoided hopping on a David Guetta track, unlike many of his peers in the early 2010s. Although far from his most potent release, it is a delight to hear Drake focused and trying something new for the first time in a long time. 7/10 Trial Track: “Currents”
