Drake fourth album was way too long and had a weirdly monotone in this album. But, with a lot of the tweaks in the sound lead to great few moments. This record is called VIEWS it was released on April 29, 2016. I believe that there was a connection to one of his previous albums back in the day with high of a pitch voice to know all about it . There are many songs in the album that cause a lot of controversy and there was songs that had beautiful moments in them. Drake has always had a skill for turning his most thoughts, feelings, and anxieties into breakthrough hits—he knows what we know to be true and then lets us rap or sing those truths to the song, resulting in common bonds that are as vulnerable as they are revealing. Drake would embrace the tone of his sounds to be more from Toronto. Drake’s fascination with the city’s Caribbean enclaves take root in the amazing rhythms of songs like “With You,” “One Dance,” and “Too Good”—all of them featuring good guest vocals that break up the monotony and also allow Drake to get out of his own.

Drake most famous songs from his album are Redemption, Controlla, and the top hit Too Good featuring Rihanna. From the moment i heard Too Good, we immediately saw it being a favorite among Drake and Rihanna fans. Not only are they are really good dueting once again, but it also sounds like a sequel to their ground-breaking hit, Take Care. The island-flavored track is fun, good to the ear  and catchy. Too Good is without a doubt, the standout moment on the album. One of the most famous lines from throughout the song is when Drake part comes in when he sings his verse, ¨I'm too good to you I'm way too good to you. You take my love for granted I just don't understand it. No, I'm too good to you I'm way too good to you You take my love for granted I just don't understand it¨ Drake and Rihanna had this back and forth relationship and that's why myself and the fans enjoy this song. Another one of my favorite songs in this album is One Dance featuring Wizkid and Kyla. Even after hearing a bunch of brand new Drizzy tracks, we still can’t help but favor this great song, dance-floor filler that is One Dance. It doesn’t get better than a song that incorporates sounds of reggae, Afropop and U.K. Funky all in one. It’s official, One Dance is the dance-hall hit of summer ’16. We think Drake has produced a classic here and everyone loves it. When Drake combines different types of genres in one sounds fans go wild and this was a banger.

This was a really good album but not the best from Drake. Some of his sounds were just to long or just to short with no words in them. But, in this album you can find some good gold moments if you just listen to the songs. He's a great rapper and singer but for his upcoming album he should just let it all out with just rapping as well.
