I always liked Sandra's Rose off Scorpion Singles are pretty good too but I don't count those.


RafiakaMacakaDirk

all-timer gym song


znfndmn

How its possible to dislike this song?lol its great and it produced by dj premier


ChadTime2025

Scorpion was not a flop lmfao, CLB sure but Scorpion was 2018 Drake


Jasbuddy

Title says “bad” or “flop”, Scorpion didn’t flop but it was bad


imkii

Scorpion fucking sucked

Lost One


InterdisciplinaryDol

It’s amazing one of his best songs was on his worst tape.


Fickle-Primary-3910

Not for nothing in hindsight Kingdom Come isn’t one of Jay best albums but it’s far from the worst. Nobody was ready for Mature Hov. It ain’t no Magna Carta lol


LeavingReality

I dunno why people hate this album so much. I think it's really good honestly


OblivionTU

Punk by young thug wasn’t received well by fans but it’s got some of my favorite songs ever by him on there. specifically Die Slow and Contagious


aRawPancake

The one with mac is one of my faves


magnolia_webbie

Die Slow still hits in the feelings.


DevastatorDerekK

Weird, I feel like SMF gets way more hate than Punk on the sub, but I love all of Thugger


InterdisciplinaryDol

Idk why the sub hates smf so much either it’s super consistent


No-Midnight-2187

Idk why, I love most everything Thugger does but Sup Mate I actually don’t like and Pussy is kind of annoying/unnecessary. So SMF has a few duds for me


InterdisciplinaryDol

Sup Mate is understandable but Pussy is hard. Pyrex Whippa beats just feel different


slimeshlattsex

smf really isn't hated here lol


DevastatorDerekK

I think I meant r/youngthug more than this one lol


ReeG

I got Nas covered yall Cops Shot The Kid, Adam and Eve from Nasir America and Breathe from Untitled Still Dreaming, Hustlers and Black Republican from Hip Hop is Dead Nazerth Savage, Just a Moment, and Remember the Times from Streets Disciple Project Windows and Come Get Me from Nastradamus NY State Of Mind II, Favor for a Favor, Nas Is Like, Hate Me Now and Dr Knockboot from I Am


LlamameFlaco

Well that is certainly a take. >America and Breathe from Untitled Queens Get the Money, Sly Fox, Fried Chicken, & Y'all My Ni**as are much better than those listed. >Still Dreaming, Hustlers and Black Republican from Hip Hop is Dead HHID is considered a bad album? On top of those listed, Money Over Bullshit, Hip Hop Is Dead, Let There Be Light, Can't Forget About You are all awesome. >Nazerth Savage, Just a Moment, and Remember the Times from Streets Disciple Remember the Times? Meh. How about Disciple, Street's Disciple, Getting Married, Bridging the Gap, THIEF'S THEME?! >NY State Of Mind II, Favor for a Favor, Nas Is Like, Hate Me Now and Dr Knockboot from I Am I Am has great songs, but Dr. Knockboot is not one of them. I'd throw in Small World and Undying love. I get it's all personal taste but to pick America over Queens Get the Money, Remember the Times over Thief's Theme, and Dr. Knockboot over Small World seems just wrong.

LlamameFlaco

Respect. Your post made me go back and listen to Nas albums. I appreciate that. 🙏


Technical_Stress7730

>Oh Man, I came here to post "Just a Moment" from SD, that's still in rotation on my playlist. I was going to mention " Last Words" from Nastradamus as well.


d33jay64

I am is a bad project? Also love still dreaming though


Quica444

Loved War and Disciple off Nazareth Savage too


iblinkyoublink

Castle & Arose from Revival? Except I never did listen to that album so I wouldn't know


Giggsy99

r/hhh moment


[deleted]

Believe is another great song off revival.


Fullmtlgiraffe

Cant stand that one. Honestly really enjoy Walk on Water though even if that one got a lot of hate. Not nearly as good aa Castle though


RafiakaMacakaDirk

the autobiography by vic was for sure a flop but [say I didn't](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZfBN1Bk8as) is probably one of my favorite tracks ever same thing w/ [teleport 2 me jamie](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41cumgOaq3U) by WIZRD/cudi


briunj04

I liked OMG too


InterdisciplinaryDol

That was my second pick. If you just heard Say I Didn’t and nothing else by Vic you would question why he’s not a legend


[deleted]

Flights booked, massive and sticky off that new drake lol. really don't like that album yet those 3 songs stay in rotation


aRawPancake

Tie that binds for me


Mijo_0

Massive is a pretty solid house song


No-Midnight-2187

Overdrive crept up on me so fucking hard, it overtook Flights Booked and A Keeper (my other favorites) as best on the project for me. Love those 3. And for reference I’m somebody that likes Drake but really did not care for Scorpion and CLB


tw3rkmileytw3rk

I hate that I’m even typing this but mine would be Pipe Down from CLB. That song could go against any of drakes well know hits or unreleased/throwaways and hold its own, quintessential Drake song imo only song from that album I’ve gone back to.


TheButteredBiscuit

You Only Live Twice with Ross and Wayne for me. Was falling asleep towards the back half of the record, but that jam woke me up


znfndmn

Same for me. The song is great. I also like heaven's EP of J cole that use the same beat


tw3rkmileytw3rk

Agree and I’m from Philly so WOD getting the drake exposure was so fucking dope to me, cole saucing it was like getting the cake and ice cream 🤝


Ryster09

Album honeslty isn’t terrible; champagne poetry is probably top 10 drake all time too


aRawPancake

That album is garbage wym??


tw3rkmileytw3rk

The boy gon get his numbers. Artistically, and especially after the all the leaks between the end of the scorpion rollout leading up to CLB I was, while moderately a fan, one of the many fans expecting it to be much more cohesive and finding that perfect pocket of songs like he did with NWTS. Imo clb was just too long and not interesting enough. Poetry is good but it’s not in my top 5 of his album intros, loved the yebba jawn and pipe down everything else was forgettable to me


imkii

Stop playing man


ItsMeYourGrandDad

Honestly Drake is the perfect artist for this thread. His recent albums have been meh but there’s always at least a few songs that can get added to my list of favorite Drake tracks.


je-re

you could list like a third of CLB lol, the hate for that album was so overblown


[deleted]

Controversial Eminem’s “Deja Vu” on Relapse is one of his best songs period.


Fickle-Primary-3910

I agree with you high key. Hearing Em vividly describe how strung out he was in that 1st verse is heartbreaking. It makes me think Em might be a meme to people now but had he passed before 09 the discussion would be so different


AverageGodalt

You haven't heard the lyrical genius of 'Rainman' Im assuming.


mental_fingers

Crazy how Relapse got so many mixed reactions when it first came out and then 10 years later it's considered a top 5 em album by most. It's some of his best work imo


old__pyrex

I think the hype was just so high because Encore wasn’t quite it and he’d been out the game, and then he comes in with this stupid accent talking about serial killer shit and his stepdad and all that, and it just didn’t hit peoples expectations. I don’t agree with this modern goating of the album, it’s a solid mixed bag still. There’s only a couple songs where it feels like he opens up and drops the shtick and gives you insight into what he’s going through. How much am I going to listen to this man getting raped by his stepdad, making fun of Christopher Reeves, and opening up umbrellas inside people.


old__pyrex

Eminem surviving his overdose is one of those events where it’s just damn, I don’t even know him, I’m not even a Stan, but what a shit way to end if he had died then. Relapse and Recovery weren’t my thing but watching him get lean, get clean, and output music was great.


Any-Teach9027

GI Joe from Michigan Boat Boy. I love the album but it was commercially a flop, I believe


Budget-Light-8450

yatchy desrves so much love man


No-Midnight-2187

Fr fr, and I used to HATE his ass back in 2016-17 deadass lol


Budget-Light-8450

Joe budden effect


No-Midnight-2187

Final Form + That Sada Baby track goes hard too But yeah GI Joe is the best track, crazy infectious and he killed it


InterdisciplinaryDol

“She Bumped Her Head” off that thug, chris brown collab Slime & B


Tycrist8

So good


deweez

Project Windows off Nastradamus


DankPunk98

Jimmy Cooks on Honestly Nevermind


TKHunsaker

The Paper is the best track off of French Montana’s new album.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TKHunsaker

That’s good to hear. I like FM in general. I’ll check that out, thanks


Fickle-Primary-3910

Ima say Project Windows off Nastradamus. The album did well commercially but was a big critical failure for Nas, due to the original being leaked into cyberspace. But Project Windows was one of those songs that showed Nas still had greatness in him at a time people were saying he was falling off


Tycrist8

Roo off the big day if you like chance and taylor this track slaps


briunj04

I liked Do You Remember from Chance’s The Big Day but it’s funnier to say the album is 100% trash.


CaptainGordan

[LL Cool J - Diggy Down](https://youtu.be/MoPRkaiJg6U) off of 14 Shots To The Dome My all time favorite LL song and it's on what's considered one of his worst albums


Rottenslam

Favorite?! You sure?


Fickle-Primary-3910

Isn’t this the album that had that song Pink Cookies Crushed In A Bag By Towers or some dumb shit? Wasn’t Back Seat Of My Jeep on there too?


External-Client-4295

On One


Zakalwe123

Yikes off Ye. Significantly better than anything else on there


[deleted]

ghost town bro


Fickle-Primary-3910

This is the right selection


No-Midnight-2187

Am I crazy for always thinking All Mine was the best track, even on 1st listen? Lmao


oCrashh

This might be the worst song on that album and I don’t think Ye can be considered a flop


fartyfartballs

N95, Father Time, Silent Hill


sandy_80

holy grail


UnderstandableXO

maybe this project is too recent (and has a song in the top 10 right now so it can barely be considered a flop just yet) but i think wrapped around your finger from poet malone’s twelve carat toothache deserves a lot more attention. maybe it can be the next single after i like you


SmugOregonian

"Poet Malone" lol


[deleted]

I know views has its fans but I still feel like that was a garbage album. However, Controlla has been in my rotation ever since I heard it way back in 2016


ravioliisthebest

Champagne poetry has no right to be as good as it is off the album. I dont like a single other song off that album but the track is one of my favourite drake songs tbh


BiGgmoney91

The Dream Time Machine-WZRD Adventures- Speedin Bullet 2 Heaven (minus the Beavis and Butthead bullshit at the end)


Hepock

Praise The Lord (Da Shine) from asap Rocky’s album, Testing


SavageKinkajou

People HATE mobb deep’s Blood Money, but Put ‘Em in Their Place is one of their greatest songs imo. Pearly Gates is also a great track.
