April 29 was the day so many of us had been anticipating for so long. "Views," Drake's new album, finally dropped. He'd been dropping mixtapes but not a full studio album like this that we have been waiting for since "Nothing Was The Same." The album flows well but each song gives each of us different feelings like his music usually does. Get your cell phone out and get ready to call everyone who's ever wronged you and anyone you've ever wronged, because you're getting on a rollercoaster.
1. "Keep the Family Close"
Not only was this song emotional, but when we first heard it we started to cry tears of joy/excitement that this day was finally here.
2. "9"
This song is about Drake's hometown of Toronto and how he has had so much influence on it. With a smooth beat and passionate lyrics, you can tell how much Drake loves his hometown which is really exhibited in his work.
3. "U With Me?"
This song is all about questioning the loyalty of the person you're with. This is something we can all relate to because it's something we all fear.
4. "Feel No Ways"
This song is one that really addresses getting out of a manipulative relationship in which the other person is trying to keep things going despite the relationship really not going anywhere. "There's more to life than sleeping in and getting high with you."
5. "Hype"
The name really says it all.
6. "Weston Road Flows"
One of those great songs with a great beat, a great flow, and some great lines. One of those songs you bop your head to with your eyes closed saying "mhm" multiple times.
7. "Redemption"
A slower jam addressing former relationships. It's one of those that really hit ya in the feels.
8. "With You"
Unlike the last song, Drake is trying to get the girl to stay instead of reminiscing on why she left.
9. "Faithful"
Another emotional track that seems to be about Drake liking someone, but having to wait for the relationship to work because she isn't ready for a relationship. Another one that will hit you in the feels, especially if you have been through a similar situation.
10. "Still Here"
This song will have you dancing like Drake in the above gif.
11. "Controlla"
Again, this gif really describes it all.
12. "One Dance"
This song was released before the album so we were able to prepare ourselves for it. It's another song in this stretch of the album that just makes you feel some type of way.
13. "Grammys"
Here's to hoping Views goes all the way next year.
14. "Child's Play"
In this album, Drake is basically telling his girl to stop being childish and petty. But all of us girls know how hard that can be sometimes.
15. "Pop Style"
Again, another song that was released before the album, but it's got the kind of beat that just makes you dance like Dad Drake.
16. "Too Good"
Arguably, my favorite song on the album. Maybe it's just because of the unreal chemistry Drake and Rihanna have, or because of the relatable message of someone taking everything you give to them for granted. Just patiently waiting for Drake and Rhi to get married....
17. "Summer's Over Interlude"
A short track to transition towards the end of the album. I see you, Drake, being artsy.
18. "Fire & Desire"
That slow and sexual song that makes everyone feel some type of way.
19. "Views"
One of the finale tracks and we just gotta stand up and applaud the greatness.
20. "Hotline Bling"
Does this one even need a description??
Thanks for another great album, Drizzy. I'll be sure to watch your concert via the Snapchats of my rich friends because those are the only people who can afford your tickets.
