Final night time, a brand new tune dropped that includes Drake, and it left everybody confused.
Snowd4y, a Toronto comic and parody rapper, launched a tune on SoundCloud named “Wah Gwan Delilah” that supposedly featured the Canadian famous person. Nobody believed it was Drake. Some even assumed (and hoped) it was AI. However, nope, it actually seems to be Drake singing his coronary heart out in a wild Toronto accent on the audio.
Final week, Snowd4y was on the Richdiet pod and was requested what he would do if Drake requested to hop on his tune. His response was both hilarious or ridiculous, relying on how critically you’re taking this entire state of affairs.
Drake’s good friend and collaborator Hush then confirmed the monitor, posting this screenshot on IG and saying it was “one for town.”
The excellent news is the Drake stimmy verify nonetheless appears to be legitimate nowadays. As of publishing, the SoundCloud hyperlink is nearing 250k performs and nonetheless climbing, and many of the latest feedback on the YouTube publish of the the Plain White T’s tune it’s primarily based on — the 2007 Billboard Scorching 100-topping emo-pop ballad “Hey There Delilah” — are folks asking who was dropped at the video by Snowd4y and Drake.
Rap Twitter after all had a area day with this tune, with the primary notion being that after dropping the battle to Kendrick, Drake is now simply dropping it generally — spiraling uncontrolled, and leaning into his Toronto-ness.
It’s getting dramatic on the market, man.
Have a look at this one. The payoff is value it.
Drake has the sport in shambles proper now, and never in a great way. It’s an fascinating technique from the OVO camp. Rapping over “BBL Drizzy” on a Sexyy Pink function as his comeback tune was daring and savvy — and I confirmed him love on that — however with this one I’m struggling. Parody tune or not, are you able to think about 50, Jay, or Nas enjoying round like this recent off a rap battle?
Ought to we count on the up to date greats to uphold the tenets of hip-hop established by people who got here earlier than them? Then again, rap and hip-hop is simply as a lot about enjoyable simply as a lot as it’s about getting free — ought to we let Drake simply have enjoyable with these things following his L? Or ought to we be disenchanted that he isn’t taking this as critically as we’d like him to?
These are the questions now we have to ask ourselves. The tune is humorous, so I don’t need to be too “previous man yells at cloud” about this. But one thing inside me says he ought to placed on Type Wars and attempt to get the crown again.
