Look at any musical discussion on Drake and his album Thank Me Later and you’ll find proof of the “repetitive” part of that claim, but the “questionable” component is a little harder to establish, especially considering almost all arguments against the guy have been bashed into the collective minds of Internet music communities that even the rare fan usually has to agree with all those negative traits Drake is often charged with (wannabe, awkward, whiny, and oh my God, he was on Degrassi) and then proceed to why he or she can enjoy the music in spite of those flaws. In that respect, Drake is as good a musician as any to swoop in and heroically defend as artistically legitimate Drake-haters often employ arguments that are not only repetitive but also occasionally questionable. To re-assess an album as actually really great when most people, about a year ago, labelled it as either terrible or, at best, something that “doesn’t really deserve all the hate” (i.e., “not bad” rather than “good”) might seem sort of deliberately contentious-basically, taking the unpopular side of a cultural/musical argument because the more popular alternative has been worn out past the point of use.
