Sep 8, 2021This is the most boring **** ive ever listened to. Not a 0 because 2 Sexy is a good Future song. He is constantly outshined by his features. Drake will be drake but this is a little too drakey. Trash

Sep 11, 2021Las críticas de expertos no valen para nada, todo se mueve por afinidad política. Más nota que Donda jajajaj. Es una basura, para dormir a las ovejas.

Sep 19, 2021Quite literally the worst album I ever heard. Drakes new music is so bad. He only makes songs for the radio now and they aren't that good.
-
Sep 24, 2021We were all expecting this to be horrible. But no one was expecting this bad. It’s truly ear grating and horrifying to listen to. If I hear drakes voice just one more **** time this year I will cry.

Nov 1, 2021Had like 2 good songs. Fair trade was saved by Travis Scott, and Get Along Better is Ty Dolla $ign’s song. Album is bloated with Ghost writing and generic trap beats. Album cover is lame
-
Nov 4, 2021The only thing i like about this album is probably the future and the travis scott features. It feels like an repetitive audio book on most of its run time. Just drake being mid nothin new.

Nov 18, 2021It demonstrates how sonically rigorous even the most casual, tossed-off Drake songs are. But its storytelling doesn’t always hold up to strict scrutiny. «Certified Lover Boy» is his least musically imaginative album, the one where he pushes himself the least in terms of method and pattern.

Jun 10, 2022Gets washed by every feature. 0 cohesiveness on the album and is a retread of all of his old stuff but just done really badly.
-
Jun 19, 2022The fact that not a single critic is willing to give this record a negative review is concerning.
-
Jun 21, 2022People trashing HN must have never listened to this one. This is pure trash and generic and lazy trap tracks.
-
Jun 21, 2022If it weren’t for the features this would be a 1.
Also “said that you’re a lesbian, girl, me too” is quite literally a **** Chris Chan bar. -

Oct 19, 2021It’s beige, hollow music and that’s what ultimately frustrates your dedicated rap listener because it doesn’t make sense why it’s so damn popular. When you throw the poor writing on top of this, and some real hit-and-miss production into the mix, “Certified Lover Boy” may well be Drake’s worst album.
-
Sep 13, 2021Drake comes across as an artist who’s bought into his mythos and persona a bit too ardently. ... The production on Certified Lover Boy is svelte yet airless, filled with lots of solemn piano lines and muted snares but absent of big flourishes or attempts at pop crossover. It’s an approach that’s likely aiming for tasteful restraint, but the effect is languid and rather directionless.

Sep 13, 2021Things start promisingly with the undulating Champagne Poetry dextrously reflecting on loneliness (“career is going great, but now the rest of me is fading slowly”), while Papi’s Home recalls early Kanye, of all people, with its sped-up samples and laid-back flow. Later, however, that playfulness calcifies into headline-grabbing stunts. ... This is an album destined to be filleted for various #mood playlists, anchored only by its creator’s untouchable fame.
