    NWTS has a few GOAT switch-ups though, the switch from Wu-Tang to Own It, the switch on Pound Cake to Paris Morton, the switch in Furthest Thing and the switch in Come Thru at the end. All killer.

    Word, that's one reason that I never skip 305 to my city. The tempo on that joint after "The Language". :clap:

    Nah

    Take Care > NWTS

    There isn't a single skippable song on that album. I'm not saying that NWTS isn't a good album, there are a lot of great songs on there, my favorite is Wu-Tang Forever.

    Ok, maybe just me then. The nostalgia of TML is a big part of it and I've always thought it was underrated.

    TML is underrated as h---. Used to think it was subpar, then Take Care came out and I thought it was flat out bad, now I actually think it was a great Freshman debut with some great high points.

    It's really comparable to SFG. You could switch up some songs between those 2 projects and they would still mesh well.

    NWTS
    Take Care
    IYRT
    SFG
    TML
    Comeback Season

    Some people might prefer SFG for nostalgia reasons to IYRT, and most people probably prefect TC to NWTS but that's my ranking.

    Don't get me wrong, NWTS is a great album and I can't see why a lot of people pick it as their fav Drizzy project, but Take Care made me a fan. It's one of my fav rap records ever.

    Dark, honest, tragic, confident...Has songs for any situation and Drake could manage to make absolutely every track special while maintaining that lonelynightlostinthecity kind of mood. I can see him topping NWTS with VFT6, but TC? I'm not sure...
