Drake\/PartyNextDoor
\n$ome $exy $ongs 4 U
\n<\/i>(OVO Sound\/Santa Anna\/Republic Records)
\n1\/5<\/p>\n

$$$4U<\/i> arrived on Valentine\u2019s Day and marks the long-awaited first full-length R&B collaboration between Canadian artists Drake and PartyNextDoor. The album contains 21 songs and lasts a total of 73 minutes.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s get this straight out of the way: the album is boring, is not well written, is underproduced, is unpolished, and is trash.<\/p>\n

The first half of the album is awful, with songs like \u201cSPIDER-MAN SUPERMAN,\u201d where Drake sings about a girl needing him to save her like he is Spider-Man or Superman (no, I am not kidding\u2014this happens). Then he mentions the Kendrick Lamar beef in \u201cGIMME A HUG,\u201d by saying \u201cFuck a rap beef\/I\u2019m trying to get the party lit,\u201d which, unless the party is a sleepover and you\u2019re trying to go to bed, I don\u2019t see this album achieving that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This album is an early candidate for worst of the year and I do not plan on revisiting any song on it ever again.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
