In this episode of Rap & Order, Taurian B. and First Klass Regg put on their detective caps and revisit Drake’s third studio album, Nothing Was the Same — the moment when Aubrey Graham stopped being “the next big thing” and officially became the guy.

The courtroom is split: Regg swears this is Drake’s most complete album, the pinnacle of his artistry and emotional balance. Taurian argues this was the peak — the moment Drake perfected his formula before drifting fully into pop superstardom. Together, they cross-examine classics like “Tuscan Leather,” “Started from the Bottom,” and “Hold On, We’re Going Home,” while dissecting the cultural moment when the 6 God turned the rap world into his personal therapy session.

Was Nothing Was the Same Drake’s magnum opus or the beginning of his mainstream takeover? T and Regg break down the evidence, revisit 2013’s soundscape, and close the case with their final verdicts.

Verdict pending. Jury advised to listen closely. DUN-DUN.
