Whether its fans or label heads, many people have high expectations for Drake’s next album, Nothing Was the Same.
However, in an interview with MTV, Drizzy revealed that he’s not one of them.
“Best advice I ever got is: No expectations lead to no disappointments. So I have no expectations,” he explained.
“Really, just more than September 24, I’m just excited whenever people get the music,” continued Drake. “The numbers, the sales, all that stuff it’s cool. I’m sure I’ll get into it on the day like, ‘How much did we sell,’ trying to figure it out, but aside from that, I’m just excited for people to hear the full body of work.”
The Toronto emcee described the project as a labor of love. “It’s been a long time in the making; it’s been about a year and a half. Just maneuvering through features and trying to figure out which records to give away, which records to sort of keep for myself. I’m excited to see if I did the right thing or not. I think I did. I love it.”
“The whole purpose of the album is for it to last. I think with Take Care I still hear records from Take Care now… we’re coming on two years,” he said. “I just want this album to have that same lasting power.”

So if he doesn’t have expectations, why do you?
Honestly, I just prefer him because he is really the only homosexual rapper there is. I know I am being bias but it’s comforting to know we have a voice (of an angel) in the Pop music industry.
The album has a few pop hits which will stay on the charts. The rest of the album is the usual collection of slow beats which people usually skip.
Best song on there is the song with Jay-Z. Then he switches the beat and goes into complete boringness.
Drake himself said it the best on ‘Tuscan Leather’:
‘This is nothin’ for the radio, but they’ll still play it though
Cause it’s that new Drizzy Drake, that’s just the way it go’
As for NWTS, too much filler for my taste – even if they’re still better than 99% of mainstream songs out there, but the lack of substance and creativity is a little disturbing on these ones. Most radio friendly songs belongs to this category from the LP, but overall it’s still a great record and worth buying. Not as a standout as Take Care was, but pretty solid.
True about the filler tracks. “Worst Behavior” is just a bunch of rambling.
All I can think about is Drake’s weiner, I can’t stop thinking about licking his balls either, lol, he is too cute
I can honestly say #NWTS will have the same lasting power as #TakeCare. I’ve already heard it and from a critic point of view he has some great songs. Most of the beats are slow tempo but the way he raps compliments each beat.
I agree, me & my life partner have been dancing to this the past few days, it is some good love making music too, lol.
Dickrider.
Yes, I am a dickrider & also a dick sucker, I am a gay man & like listening to gay artists, is there a problem with that? You are listening to the same artist so are you gay?
I know most people are going to skip over the slow tempo beats because there not hard club banging beats. Honestly, you need to just listen to what Drake is actually rapping about. For example “From Time (feat. Jhene Aiko)” and “Furthest Thing.”
So true, he is the best singer in the world, he’s also the best rapper, he is better than everyone ever, I love him, like really love him, I’m so gay for him I can’t control it, I just want to hold him.
Nigga, you gay.
I am in fact a African American homosexual, you are correct.
I have no expectations about your new album

He looks so hot right now, ssssssssss! I so wish I had a dick pic. He’s the best singer eva!
Drake stop posting comments as someone else.
Thank Me Later sucked, Take Care was better, This one is a little bit better
He’s being humble which is cool cause he knows he gonna outsell all these niggas.
Funny how Meek came out saying he was gonna sell a million first week and then tanked. French comes out saying he doing 200k first week and he went cardboard!
He’s the farthest thing from humble.
Selling 300,000 + isn’t a tank.
Yes, it is.
it is when you say you’re gonna sell a milli first week
#HUGYOURPILLOWMUSIC
Does anyone else think about Drake’s butthole all day long? I sure do!!!
I spontaneously ejaculated the first time I heard Tuscan Leather.
I just love your name, it’s to die for. xoxoxo, I too would like some Drizzy Jizzy
as a bitchass young money groupie with no accounting skills, I can confirm that drake does not want beef with kendrick. Kendrick will rip drake apart. let’s be real, drake the most effeminate, daddy kissing, white canadian faggot in the game. And that’s why i like him, cause i’m like that to.
lol, I wish I could rip Drake apart, I have had my eyes on that butthole since back before he came out.
AS as bitchass young money groupie with no accounting skills, I can confirm that drake’s album will sell two copies, I will buy one and his faggot ass will buy the other.
Wtf is up with all these fucking trolls on the site? Can’t even have a proper discussion about music with anybody… Everytime I scroll down to the comments section its an appalling mix of offensive and disgusting comments in general… Epic fail HHDX. You should do something about it, seriously
I think it has more to do with Drake having a lot of gays in his fan base. I don’t really see it with any other artists. I can see why so many people either think Drake is gay or know gay people who listen to him & are turned away by it.
No JMT, it’s just you and other lowlives polluting the comment section with nasty-ass homosexual innuendo just to ridicule Drake with some childish illusion making it seem like he has nothing but a big gay, orgy-loving stanbase. How mature. I hate trolls and stans. Nearly all artists have faggots, women, and so-called “no homo” male dickriders in their fanbases dumbass. What makes Drake so different? Look at stanbases of Lady Gaga, Eminem, Justin Bieber, Kendrick Lamar, Jay-Z, Kanye West, Katy Perry, etc. All you fucking trolls and stans are the same to me and are both equally pathetic wastes of space. Furthermore, 2music3 is correct.
I most certainly am not one of these fucking homos. The simple fact that you use the word stanbase insinuates that you are a stupid fuck. Don’t cluster me in with all the fags on here who love Drake. I personally feel Drake is a Pop artist or R&B so I’m fully aware of what kind of song I am clicking on. I have also come to accept that most of the comments are going to be from gay men who like Drake. I just usually don’t even bother reading the comments for Drake songs. like I said before, it doesn’t go on in most of the other artist’s song pages, just drake. I agree there are trolls on almost every page but not homosexuals. Therefore I believe most of his fanbase, notice how I used the correct term, to be gay men.
I’m the stupid fuck? *Scoffs* Okay, maybe I shouldn’t have ASSumed you were a troll, but you are still naive. You are truly the real stupid fuck here if you think authentic gay men are commenting here. If so, then you are an ignorant fucking dunce. They are probably too busy fucking each other over and off gay sites to care about what Drake does. These “gay men” commenting on this HHDX article are welfare or over-privileged trolls fucking around with their mom’s computer (or school library). You must be new to the Internet if you don’t know what an Internet troll is.
The gay trolls are obviously mocking Drake, and the hidden part of the joke is that Drake is a soft queer R&B artist and has a faggot fanbase. Oh, you don’t like the term “stanbase”? Well tough shit if you caught feelings. Apparently you must be stanning for someone on your own time if you were offended. And most of his fanbase are women, ghetto ass niggas, little kids, some white people, and self-absorbed teenagers. Every artist has some gay in their fanbase/stanbase, some much more than others. Furthermore, take your lost and get the fuck out. I cannot believe how gullible you are. There is too much stupid in one fucking page.
LMAO!! just fucking with you homie, lighten up. Drake is a queerbait & so are people who like him. Is that better? I just click on his songs to read the funny comments I couldn’t possibly consider myself a hip hop fan if I actually listened to anything Drake does.
You two sound super hot, what are you guys wearing?
I like Penis in between my buttcheeks.

this is bullshit this is a publicity stunt to make you think drakes all innocent and shit “no expections” fuck off hows this news? hes trying to maintain a innocent image!
When double platinum is a lock then expectations are left to blow away in the wind.
Double wood
Guys his album has leaked and even ovosounds confirmed it drizzynothingwasthesame.blogspot.com
worst album of the year
Title should read “Drake has no buzz for this new album”. Everybody still talking about Kendrick..
No Buzz??? You’re crazy.
this album sux. Drake needs to give up on the singing. Maybe for a few verses or hooks but not more than 3 total songs cuz he can barely harmonize
I agree. Its like he can sing just enough to call it singing but not enough to be considered a singer. If that makes sense. lol
NWTS is a solid album..its not better or worst than his previous ones. I think he is a top tier artist not just hiphop but music in general. But I think the singing tracks are his downfall..Yeah “just hold on, were going home”, “Take Care”, and a few other songs were pretty good but on his albums a lot of those rnb songs start to sound the same. He isn’t that great of a singer and doesn’t really have much variety in his voice. I think he is best at rap songs where the hook and/or some of the verses are sung… He likes to sing tho..which is cool..but his albums are always gonna sound the same in terms of content. If you ask me.. He needs to save rnb songs for a side project like Kanye’s 808 and heartbreaks album.
NWTS was pretty terrible imo.
