First listen.
~Disc 1, A Side~ (hip-hop)

3: "God's Plan";
2: None
1: "Emotionless"; "Mob Ties"; "Is There More";
0: "Survival"; "Nonstop"; "Elevate"; "I'm Upset"; "8 Out Of 10"; "Can't Take A Joke"; "Sandra's Rose"; "Talk Up" (ft. Jay-Z);

~Disc 2, B Side~ (R&B)
I listened to "Don't Matter to Me" when it first came out. I wasn't familiar with Drake's music, but I had listened to it because I was interested by the "posthumous vocals" from Michael Jackson (Wikipedia).
Last rated "Don't Matter to Me."

Continue listening back at "Don't Matter to Me." Changed it from a 1 to a 2.

3: "In My Feelings";
2: "Don't Matter to Me" (with Michael Jackson);
1: "Summer Games"; "Nice For What"; "Blue Tint"; "After Dark" (ft. Static Major & Ty Dolla $ign); "Final Fantasy";
0: "Peak"; "Jaded"; "Finesse"; "Ratchet Happy Birthday"; "That's How You Feel"; "March 14";

Summary:
From my ratings, I seem to like the B side, the R&B side, more than the A side, the hip-hop side. Taken as a whole, the double album is too long. However, listening to either half by itself is reasonable.

The two songs I liked from the double album are "God's Plan" and "In My Feelings," both which I had heard prior to listening to the album.

Overall Rating (A Side): 2.0/5
Overall Rating (B Side): 3.8/5
Overall Rating (Both Sides): 2.8/5
Favorite Song: "God's Plan"
