Drake appears to be very nonchalant towards critics of his just-released seventh album, ‘Honestly, Nevermind’, declaring in a video that it’s “all good” if they “don’t get it yet”.The follow-up to last year’s ‘Certified Lover Boy’ was released just hours after its announcement last Friday (June 17), and has thus far received a lukewarm reception from critics and fans alike.

In one Tweet with over 4,300 likes, a listener opined that the album “isn’t house enough for any house heads and not rap enough for any of the rap heads”.But Drake doesn’t seem fazed by the lack of fans latching on to the record – in a new video, shot at what looks to be an album release party for ‘Honestly, Nevermind’, the artist says: “It’s all good if you don’t get it yet.
