Drake dropped the music video for his latest single today - totally unexpectedly. His son, Adonis, has a starring role. What do you think?

What a fascinating song ........and not in an all good way but it is fascinating..........part of the problem with modern rap / hip hop is that much of it is unable to even be analyzed or critiqued.......it has (often, now) become mere celebrations of wealth (usually) - this song is so reflective of that pattern that it almost IS the analysis that is removed from critics - it's like a Bo Burnham video (not a fan of his btw - Bo Burnham's Inside is a "masterpiece" the same way that your grandfather's misrembered memories are "history"): * First of all - he's the GOAT (?) - why, because his kid drew a picture? ......Nas and Jay are probably amused anyway * He really showed Pusha T, huh? Put Adonis in a vid.......mic drop........wait where's Mom? * He sure curses a lot in front of Adonis.......um...just sayin' * Casual homophobia - "obsessed with me but not on a hetero vibe" ........how 1992 * Still how many songs namedrop Citizen Kane, Orson Welles, Lauren Hill, Adele, Shania Twain, Jordan Peele, TD Jakes and Oliver North (did I hear that right?) Some lines didn't make sense and are laughably random "orange peels" don't get under my skin........wtf.......I'm not going to die in my favorite restaurant and why would I die there for trying to rob you - Specious Reasoning Much Drake!?! - ...foreign films words do match their actions ....... does he mean dubbed films? That's like Kanye saying "I keep it 300 just like the Romans"........they were Greek ffs !!
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm I could teach a course on this song.........fascinating in its hubris!........
