SiriusXMâs Small Stages series has recently hosted special shows from the likes of Pearl Jam and Red Hot Chili Peppers at the Apollo Theater.
Last month, Drake posted screenshots showing hateful Instagram messages he’d sent to Needle Drop music critic Anthony Fantano. It came after Fantano joked about Drake messaging him during a video he posted on YouTube.
After Drake shared the actual DMs he’d sent to Fantano, the latter responded to the situation by calling the messages âvery mad, salty ⊠weird and awkwardâ.
In a review of ‘Honestly, Nevermind’, NME described the record as “an unexpected elevation from the bland trap, R&B remakes and Drakeâs melancholic attitude to love we heard last time around”.
It added: “He doesnât quite shift the latter as much as one would hope â the album is as tiresomely woe-is-me as anything heâs ever done â but the house sound has at least given him the creative boost that his recording career has been crying out for recently.”
