During his interview with Rolling Stone, Drake's right-hand man Noah "40" Shebib" ranked Drake's albums from best to worst.
Driving across Toronto, he begins to loosen up, and agrees to rank Drake’s discography from top to bottom: So Far Gone, Take Care, If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late, Scorpion, Nothing Was The Same, Views, Thank Me Later. He expertly toes the company line, deciding to leave More Life off the list, because it was billed as a “playlist.” I notice that, as a result of staying as far away from the spotlight as he can, 40 has close to no idea what the public consensus is on his own work. He seems confused that I don’t think “Fireworks” is a top-tier Drake song, and that “Ratchet Happy Birthday” isn’t universally recognized as “an epic moment.”
Once the article the newsstands, 40 changed his mind.
"Yo @carlchery I was driving when he asked that question😆 I would never have NWTS that low. Some days that’s my favourite project we did but it’s whatever lol I have different reasons for why I’m attached to different projects then everyone else and that’s understandable but that list ain’t right I don’t stand by that. And also I ain’t giving a list cause as I said I have a different perspective 😌🙏🏼," 40 said in response to a comment Carl Chery, Creative Director and Head of Urban Music over at Spotify, made on DJ Akademiks post.
What do you think the best Drake projects are?
