Aubrey Drake Graham, a 37-year-old Toronto artist who grew to fame in 2006. Unlike most in the industry, Drake has consistently shown growth through his lyrics, and with a few exceptions, consistently produces good music. Despite internet memes of Drake being nothing but corny and heartbroken, his music shows far more than just that. Here are the Six God’s eight best albums in order.
Take Care stands as one of the most iconic “breakup” albums. With songs like “Marvin’s Room” and “Doing It Wrong”, the lyrics encapsulate the feelings and emotions of a breakup perfectly through Drake’s choice of words. These songs go beyond the theme of heartbreak but also reflect his conflicted feelings toward fame and relationships with family and friends. Drake does a great job of having an equal mix of storytelling and allowing listeners to relate, despite not being in the exact situation. These songs are not exclusive to heartbreaks but are also just well-composed songs and have that replayability factor. Bottom line is, whether you’re reminiscing on that one relationship or just searching for good music to listen to, you can’t go wrong with Take Care.
With no clear recurring theme, this album can be seen as Drake getting thoughts off his chest in response to the disrespect of not being considered “great”, rather than a story-telling album like Take Care. This album takes time to appreciate as Drake uses unique beats and hooks in some of his songs, and is not commonly seen as a top Drake album at first. This album contains arguably Drake’s best song “Jungle”, and has a quality mix of beats and topics on his songs which makes this album top two.
Featuring some of Drake’s most streamed tracks, Scorpion stands as one of his highest-grossing albums and when you listen to the songs on it, you’ll understand why. With a great variation of vibes throughout the album, this is one of Drake’s most versatile releases and has a song anyone and everyone can enjoy.
Similar to Scorpion, Views grew to be one of Drake’s most iconic albums featuring the CN tower album cover many people know, fan or not. Also containing some of his most streamed tracks, Views is known to lack lyrically as well known as it is, but makes up for it in terms of composition and beat experimentation. Overall, Views is a good album but could’ve been great just overall doesn’t have anything that stands out to put in anything higher than top four.
Starting to get into some more modern vibes, Dark Lane Demo Tapes executes this transition of a new style of music for Drake perfectly. Without the known “old Drake” feel, newer listeners are introduced to an artist completely different from what he used to be years before. This album arguably has one of the best replayability factors with the slow and calm vibes that circulate throughout the lyrics and beats. Dark Lane Demo Tapes, overall, is one of Drake’s can’t-go-wrong albums.
Arguably one of Drake’s most underrated albums, More Life is at six because of its diverse composition. Drake executes this by giving the songs on this album a mix of calm R&B and upbeat hip-hop.
Being Drake’s most recent album, this album does a great job of incorporating modern feels to Drake’s iconic “old Drake” style of music. These tracks have some great features including 21 Savage, Yeat, and more. The overall versatility and replayability is that which sticks out compared to every other album.
Finally is Her Loss. This album is one of Drake’s newest albums just releasing in 2022. Despite coming in last on this list, Her Loss is still a noteworthy album. This album lacks Drake’s versatility factor as it mostly focuses on hype and fast rap, which isn’t necessarily bad, but it might not be for everyone.
