Drake - If You're Reading This It's Too Late
You can call me biased, I don't care! Most people who know me fear my unhealthy, obsessive reaction when the word 'Drake' is mentioned, so I guess this was expected to be my favourite album of the year. Seriously though, after being a huge fan for 7 years, Drake continues to amaze me and even though he has changed and developed his style as an artist, he still delivers such quality, while his charismatic personality shines through! Seeing as this is technically a mixtape, the standard is so high - even debuting at number 1 on the Billboard charts with over 15 million streams in the first week alone. Needless to say, this could have easily been an album. The standout tracks for me are:
Madonna
Star 67
Jungle
6pm in New York
Wednesday Night Interlude (I cannot even discuss this track because I become severely distressed)
10 Bands
Energy
Energy
Know Yourself (I will never forget when he performed this at wireless - it was one of the best moments of my life... apart from when he called me 'babygirl', but that's a story for another day!)
However, as always, I love every single track and this is definitely my most played album of the year. Drake never releases a track that I don't like and for that reason, he's my fave! I can't wait for what 'Views from the Six' will bring to the table!
