While a number of Drake's fans were delighted when his new album "Views From The 6" came out last week, fellow rapper Joe Budden appeared to be feeling otherwise.

According to Vibe, the 35-year-old New Jersey native shared his opinion on his own podcast saying that while Noah "40" Shebib, the central producer of the 29-year-old Canadian recording artist's new project, has elevated his craft, the record performer allegedly "do not."

It was further narrated that Budden also commented that lyrics-wise, the "Thank Me Later" singer sounded "uninspired."

"For a ni**a that is crowned king of introspection, right? He's been at the top of this music game for years," he reportedly said about Drake's "Views From The 6" album. "What has he told you different from 'Take Care' to this album?"

Budden, however, explained to his followers that "I love Drake, I'm a fan.... I just look deeper."

In the meantime, amid these comments from his fellow performer, the new album of the multi-awarded artist has proven that it is capable of achieving enormous success.

Based on the report of Pitchfork, "Views" sold 1.2 million copies, which include its equivalents in streaming album, worldwide in less than six days. This figure still does not include the sales recorded in the United States which was estimated to be over a million.

Meanwhile, Republic Records also shared that Drake's "Views From The 6" album was streamed more than 250 million times, with at least 200 million of the said figure coming from just within the US.
