About this album
Where they were
Released on November 4, 2022, 'Her Loss' is Drake's follow-up to the critically acclaimed 'Certified Lover Boy.' At this point in his career, he had solidified his dominance in the hip-hop landscape, yet sought to explore new artistic directions through collaboration with fellow artist 21 Savage. This album also marked a shift towards a more introspective tone despite its brash exterior.
Why it matters
'Her Loss' debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart and was met with mixed reviews, yet it resonated strongly with audiences. The album's clever interplay between vulnerability and bravado influenced discussions around masculinity in hip-hop, while its production style continued to shape contemporary rap trends. Additionally, tracks like 'Rich Flex' became significant hits, further cementing Drake's commercial appeal.
Essential tracks
- "Rich Flex" — This track sets the tone for the album with its catchy hook and showcases both artists' lyrical prowess, blending bravado with introspection.
- "Hours in Silence" — A standout moment reflecting emotional depth, this track features raw confessions that contrast sharply with the album’s more boastful tracks.
- "Circo Loco" — This track exemplifies the synergy between Drake and 21 Savage, merging catchy beats with sharp lyrics that reflect on fame and relationships.
