Drake and PartyNextDoor have collaborated on the latest album, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, which is a mix of both smooth songs and also upbeat, catchy songs. While the album most definitely had some awkward songs, such as “ Meet Your Padre,” it did not hold my attention that well and had awkward verses at times. 

The song “Nokia” deservedly gained popularity across TikTok and other social media platforms and is more of an upbeat and catchy song. It’s the most memorable song, and its startwas my favorite. It has a danceable beat with a catchy chorus.

Transition? most of the other songs did not live up to the hype such as “Cn Towers” or “crying in Chanel” these tracks were a bit too slow for me while some tracks like “Midnight Drive” and “Sweet Nights”have more of a smooth chill vibe but also had exciting parts that shows how good Drake and PartyNextDoor production is. Most songs are perfect for a relaxed easy going days.

The lyrics are heartfelt,  such as “underneath the city lights, we find peace in the quiet nights” while some are funny “Got me feeling like spiderman swinging through your web of lies” and others made me  cringe, “Got my ex calling on my Nokia, saying she wants the old thing back” Overall, I would say $ome $exy $ongs 4 U is a solid album with its moments that fall short. While I may not have personal favorites, the album is a mix of different vibes and tunes, giving everyone a chance to find what you might be looking for in your newest favorite song. 

Whether you area fan of either Drake or PartyNextDoor or just looking for new songs, I would say this album is worth a listen, but you may want to skip over a few songs along the way.
