There's an inconsistency with release dates. Infobox says September 20th while intro says September 24th. The earliest release should be used for both instances.
The "Hidden Hills" link seems to be leading to the wrong article. I'm guessing it was meant to link to
Hidden Hills, California.
Give a time range (i.e. October 2011) for when "Drake announced in an interview that he had begun work on his third studio album".
Per MOS:QUOTEMARKS, ' should be used in place of ’. There are several instances in the quote to GQ and several more in the quote to XXL where this needs to be addressed.
The problem in this case is how they go against WP:COMMONNAME (particularly those that are stylized)
There was one last stylization (Mike WiLL Made It), that has now been taken care of. As for common name see comment below. STATicmessage me! 18:46, 27 April 2014 (UTC)reply

"In March 2013 he would premiere" → "In March 2013, Drake would premiere"
COMMONNAME applies to article titles and the name the subject is refereed to in their articles. It has absolutly nothing to do with this article, unless Drake is not his common name or there is a more common name for the album. I think NOTBROKEN summarizes exactly why redirects are perfectly fine and can be perfered by some editors. It is up to personal choice really, and as far as I know there is nothing in the GA critera that discounts
WP:NOTBROKEN, which is a part of the editing guideline

Remove ref#15 (Huffington Post)- they're known for often lying in things like politics, science, medicine, and celebs.
I have seen you opinion on that source before and I agree that in certain opinion points they are not reliable, but it is just a posting of a song, literally zero harm in it. STATicmessage me! 21:28, 27 April 2014 (UTC)reply
ref#21 (Complex.com) should read "Complex".
ref#24 (Complex.com) should also read "Complex".
ref#27 (Rolling Stone) is dead and needs to be replaced or removed.
If the above is addressed within the next seven days, I will pass the GAN. The main problem is inconsistency within reference names. Relatively minor, but should still be addressed. If including both a work and publisher for refs from the same source for certain refs but not others, include it all in such refs.
Thanks for the detailed review XXSNUGGUMSXX, I will be able to easily take care of this. STATicmessage me! 03:58, 27 April 2014 (UTC)reply
Another thing for Rolling Stone ref's: "Jann Wenner" is publisher. Please don't have that for some refs and "Wenner Media LLC" for others. As a general note, please stick with one use or another for publishers in ref's. Also, publisher for AllMusic is Rovi Corporation.

Okay, fixed all Rolling Stone refs and as for AllMusic, they are now owned/published by All Media Network, not Rovi Corporation anymore. STATicmessage me! 23:32, 27 April 2014 (UTC)reply
Good to know (I now have updating to do on refs for other articles). Also, blogspot is not reliable, and take a look
here.

The blogspot is his record label/crew
OVO Sound/
October's Very Own official site, so we can use it for such a minor sentence. As for checklinks, I could have sworn I did that like last month-.- I nominated this sooner then I expected due to lack of free-time in the near future, I will take care of those now.

No worries. I just remember being hounded for including blogspot in the past. If you can't find anything else from the label, then just use that.

Just a couple last things I only noticed now- ref#97 should read Spin rather than "Spin.com". Also, ref's #15 and #16 talk about Drake working with Fauntleroy but don't mention Cocaine 80s. We'll be good to go after finding refs that support Cocaine 80's and once ref#97 is corrected.
