kingfish Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 He didn't use any type of auto-tune on his album House of Balloons. His voice is actually like that from what I've read/heard. Agreed the production throughout the album was solid. The lyrics just weren't there though... he could have did a much better job. His creativity is falling off like crazy and nobody's production can save him if he doesn't get his shit together lyrically.I think I killed everybody in the game last year, man[expletive] it I was on thoughAnd I thought I found the girl of my dreams at a strip clubMmm mmm, [expletive] it I was wrong thoughShout out to all my [expletive]as living tax freeNow-a-days its six figures when they tax meOh well, guess you lose some and win someLong as the outcome is incomeYou know I want it all and then someShout out to Asian girls, let the lights dim someShots came, I don’t know where they was sent fromProbably some bad hoes about to take the hemp fromYeah, you know me well [expletive]aYeah, I mean you ain’t the only real [expletive]aThey got me on these white women like Seal [expletive]aSlave to the [expletive] but I’m just playing the field [expletive]aYeah, are these people really discussing my career again?Asking if I’ll be going platinum in a year againDon’t I got the shit the world wanna hear again?Don’t Michael Jordan still got his hoop earing in?Man all of your flows bore me: paint dryingAnd I don’t ever be trippin off of what ain’t mineAnd I be hearing the shit you say through the grapevineBut jealousy is just love and hate at the same timeYeah, it’s been that way from the beginningI just been playing, I ain't even notice I was winningAnd this is the only sound you should fearMan, these kids wear crowns over here and everything is alright It’s your worst nightmare, it’s my first night hereAnd this girl right here, who knows what she knows?So I’m going through her phone if she go to the bathroomAnd her purse right there, I don’t trust these hoes at allBut that’s just the result of me paying attentionTo all these women that think like men with the same intentionsTalking strippers and models that try to gain attentionEven a couple pornstars that I’m ashamed to mentionBut Weezy and Stunna are my only role modelsHeffer and Jordan are my only role modelsThat’s why I walk around with all this gold onAnd every time I run into these [expletive]as they want no problemsBottom sixes and chains, and some bracelets and ringsAll of the little accents that make me a kingI never hear the disses they try and point out to meBut it’s whatever if somebody wan’ make it a thingI’m more concerned what [expletive]as thinkin’ about Christmas in AugustDo anything to buy gifts for they daughtersGet some shake a brick in the pressAnd chef it like Mrs. Fields they’re making the cookie stretchI know it so well, I know the hustle so wellStunt like I’m workin’ overnighters right by the motelDrug money, outfit record cleanSpend it all on me and my [expletive]in’ teamMatchin’ Rollies for real, matchin’ Rovers for realPlaces they say they’ve been, we’ve actually going for realI’m really killin’ shit, [expletive] all the jiggy rappin’I’m going trigga happy just to see my [expletive]as happyMixtape legend, underground kingsLookin’ for the right way to do the wrong thingsWith my new bitch that’s living in Palm SpringsYoung ass [expletive]a, lifelong dreamsThey take the greats from the past and compare usI wonder if they’d ever survive in this eraIn a time where it’s recreationTo pull all your skeletons out the closet like Halloween decorationsI know of all the things that I hear they be pokin’ fun atNever the flow though, they know I run that[expletive] you all, I claim that wheneverI change rap forever, the game back together, yupYM, I remain that foreverIn the same place my brother Wayne that foreverI’m a descendent of either Marley or HendrixI haven’t figured it out cause my story is far from finishedI’m hearing all of the jokes, I know that they tryna push meI know that showin’ emotion don’t ever mean I’m a [expletive]Know that I don’t make music for [expletive]as who don’t get [expletive]So those are the ones I count on to diss me or overlook meLord knows, Lord knows, I’m heavy, I got my weight upRoll the [?], it’s time that somebody paid upA lot of [expletive]as came up off of a style that I made upBut if all I hear is me, then who should I be afraid of?Bought a white Ghost, now shit is gettin’ spookyVery, very scary, like shit you see in the moviesIn this bitch all drinks on the house like SnoopyThat’s why all the real soldiers salute meTrill [expletive]a, for real He hasnt fallen off lyrically.

JYD Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Yeah, idk, I thought Drake's lyrics were pretty consistent and good throughout the album. The production was definitely on point. To me, you could tell he really took his time on this album compared to TML. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 I feel like he wanted to make a darker type album, especially since it came out during the winter. Comparable to, 808's? say what?lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
