The Official Drake "Nothing Was The Same" Album Thread (The Reviews are Coming In....) (9.24)

[rapmastermind]

I should of known he would mess it up. SMDH. How you going to call a song "Wu Tang Forever" and start singing about some damn chick. Pathetic. Who gives a damn about Chris Brown and Rhianna? This is about WU negro. Beat don't even sound like something Wu would f*ck with. This was a chance for Drake to shut some haters up with his lyrical ability over a hard track paying real homage to Wu. Instead another typical drake simping song. Throwing in "It's Yours" doesn't make up for the song. The song does not embody Wu, doesn't have the WU sound, Doesn't really have anything to do with the Wu Tang Legacy. Wu fans all across the net are sh!tting on it.

The song should not have been named "Wu Tang Forever". It's crazy cause this is the 20th Anniversary of Wu and again Drake had a great chance to pay real homage. Talk about the Wu, talk about their impact. Instead I have to hear him singing about females. WEAK! The only think positive I hope comes from this is all Drake's young fans go back and listen to "Wu Tang Forever" and get some real hip hop in those ear drums. Sh!t I think Drake needs to pop in that album also cause he obviously doesn't get the Wu Tang vibe dropping that soft a$$ track. If you going to call that ish "Wu Tang Forever" you gotta bring it. It's gotta be Hip Hop. Drake shouldn't of even fixed his mouth to speak the Wu name:

I consider myself a hip-hop head and the only thing that bothers me about the track is the name. It's misleading as hell. Shoulda been called "It's Yours" or sumin.

But I like the song itself. Especially that 2nd verse.

The name is exactly why it's going to get backlash. He could of called it anything. Calling it "Wu Tang Forever" speaks to anyone who grew up on Wu Tang. You gotta come harder than that. Again it's just a regular Drake song. Why didn't he talk about the members on Wu or the Legacy of Wu? Was it even a homage track? Sure he scratched in "It's Yours" and took a few bars but the song itself really had nothing to do with Wu tang.

Dude should of reached out to RZA and got him to produce the song. Or at the very least should of sampled a Classic beat from the "Wu Tang Forever" album. Listening to the song made me seriously go and pop in "Forever" and cleanse myself, lol. It's songs like this why there is a large segment of Hip Hop heads that think Drake is forever soft. Hey Drake. THIS IS WU TANG FOREVER:

"Nothing Was The Same"

Questions will swirl around Alabama as it heads to College Station Friday for one of the biggest games of the college football season. But this situation won't go away in a week, as the allegations could potentially alter the history books of the Crimson Tide's recent dominant run over college football.

D.J. Fluker started at right tackle in every game of Alabama's last two national championship seasons, but the allegations of impropriety appear to center in the middle of those two years. So should the NCAA be able to prove that the benefits did exist, it could retroactively strip the Crimson Tide of wins, including a SEC Championship and a BCS National Championship.

....shoulda told them agents #nonewfriends

Drake - Wu Tang Forever (It's Yours)

25 minutes ago

you actually listen to the song or just mad? because if you listen to it, he's referring to rap/hip-hop in the same vein that Common did on "I Used To Love H.E.R."

I agree but the Wu tang thing is misleading unless you think of it as Wutang being used as a metaphor for hip hop. Sorta like Jordan is a symbol for basketball unofficially.

Like the Wutang flow he used.
