More than once, he questions who his friends are and what lovers want from him. More than once, he wonders whether he might only get his due after he’s dead. Wading through it feels like reading a meandering YouTube vlog, or a too-revealing Tumblr post that, despite its faults, still captivates you anyway. It’s not that the record is bad there’s just so much of it, and Drake sounds capital-D Done throughout. You feel this exasperation while listening to the double album, which, at 25 songs and 89 minutes long, ends up feeling like work. It fuels him and tears him apart in equal measure. He is entrenched in the internet because he has to be, but he doesn’t know what to do with it. He’s having an existential crisis over it. (In “0 to 100,” for example, he talks about the fear that a partner will get upset if she keeps scrolling through the pictures on his phone.) Scorpion, which was released last night, blows past Drake’s typical weariness of technology and morphs it into something darker. If nothing else, his confessions about how technology affects his relationships are messy enough to start conversations. It always feels a little cheesy when Drake spits it, but he can get away with it, because he usually taps into something real. Drake is the internet - and he hates it.įor stans, this is nothing new: perennial Sad Boy that he is, Drake has always loved talking (and rapping, and singing) about how much technology and the internet only serves to alienate us from each other. The man is a walking meme our mockery or admiration of the Toronto rapper is forever buoyed to the top of our feeds.

The internet fame machine pumps out music stars on the regular - Justin Bieber, Post Malone, Cardi B - but few truly embody the internet in the way that Drake does.
