Change the name of the article. It's called "What a Time To Be Alive" with all words capitalized except for "a".

Detail is not the producer of Change Locations. His name is Noel Cadastre and he's credited under Noel. Source is Drake's IG post. https://instagram.com/p/73qludjQDf/?taken-by=champagnepapi — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.200.212.169 (talk) 03:45, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A lot of these production credits are false... — Preceding unsigned comment added by OG Nick Marsh (talk • contribs) 06:31, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Use city details of the artists, don't just say "Canadian rapper" or "American rapper". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Helmuday (talk • contribs) 17:47, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 23 September 2015

{to be added to the Critical Reception section. Sorry if the formatting is not correct; I’m on my phone.}

Some critics were not impressed with the album and even less so with Drake's performance on it. The Verge writes, “It’s immediately clear that Future owns this tape...he has its best verses and its funniest lines...Drake’s verses are isolated and perfunctory, and almost all feel out of place.” The article concludes “It’s ultimately a misstep, a rare one” when discussing the album in the context of Drake's career.[1] Noisey was also critical of Drake's contribution to the album, “it often just sounds like Drake’s just been tossed a feature on a new Future song,” and the album in general, “Essentially, WATTBA is cubic zirconia when we were promised real diamonds.” [2]

Comments/Suggestions

Maybe including a wider range of critics reviews of the album, it wouldn't be too hard to find references for that. Also including more information regarding the commercial performance of the album would help in expanding the usefulness of the article. Everything else seems to be linked to an appropriate and reliable reference. Jondevito3 (talk) 04:06, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Superchunk album?

I came here looking for the 2018 Superchunk album. Would it be possible to add a link to that here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:483:4D80:2F0:35A3:DC6A:11CB:7D90 (talk) 19:52, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What a Time to Be Alive → What a Time to Be Alive (mixtape) – Although Drake and Future's mixtape may seem to be the most popular subject, there are now two albums with the same name that have been released in the last two years by Superchunk and Tom Walker. Walker's album was the number one album on the UK Albums Chart yesterday, and Drake and Future's collaboration is not an album, it is a mixtape. As Tom Walker is a rising artist, there needs to be a dab page to signify all three works. JE98 (talk) 19:58, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Given that
What a Time to Be Alive (Drake and Future album) only charted at 6, no, not in this case. In ictu oculi (talk) 22:29, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply

It charted at 6 in the UK, but neither Drake nor Future are British. It charted at no 1 in both the US and Canada. PC78 (talk) 00:34, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
