...awful.

This is spectacularly bad as a cover. Why would you work on an album for 4 years almost, and then say "Just take a picture of me on top of the CN tower"? It's just been a downward slide since the "So Far Gone"'s cover. Compared to this, I liked the idea that the cover would just be an inverted version of the Summer Sixteen single art, like the projection below shows.

In other news, the album is confirmed to be 20 songs long and there is likely going to be a summer tour for the record with Future. Get excited for Friday?

Amazing! The king of Toronto strikes again

Massive respect for the 6god for repping the city like this
 
It's not spectacular but there's nothing wrong with and it's not like the cover is important. We aren't living in the vinyl era anymore where they can become iconic af.

I like it, but I've also spent a lot of my life in Toronto, agree with whoever said it would look better with him not on it at all.

It's like he tried to 1up J Cole's cover and came out more corny than J Corn himself.
Is such a thing even possible?

Stop trying to make "the 6" happen Drake
Sorry to inform you, but it's already a thing.

That cover is probably the only good thing in the Album.

Drake is terrible.

(Can't wait for the memes)

A junior member coming to a thread just to troll, risky. Let's see how it pans out. Be a good chance for the mods to get rid of a troll early in his gaf career.
 
It's actually pretty good.
I like it. That hand thing is ugly.
The quality of it is subjective, I actually like it.

Looks dope!
That's a solid cover. It's framed nicely and it's a good shot.
It looks pretty great to be honest

To each their own, I suppose.

Fair enough, I suppose, but at least put some effort into making it look nice. I know a lot of people give DONDA shit for their #minimalism and what not, but they know how to make nice cover art.

I much prefer stuff like this:

to what Drake chose.

If the shop wasn't so bad it would be decent. Looking f Rats to the album. Really like IYRTITL, but I didn't like Pop Style or One Dance

Eh, I disagree. In the grand scheme of things, covers aren't as important as the music, but they're still an important factor. Well, for me they are at least.

It's just that Drake's covers are usually terrible.
