Drake, ever the master of surprise releases, dropped a fresh trio of tracks through his burner Instagram account, @plottttwistttttt, on Friday. This unexpected move comes just weeks after he leaked three other tracks earlier this month, keeping fans and critics alike on their toes.
The latest drops—"Circadian Rhythm," "SOD," and "No Face"—are turning heads. Notably, "No Face" features a collaboration with Playboi Carti, adding an extra layer of excitement to the release. "SOD," on the other hand, appears to be the same track as "Supersoak," which Lil Yachty had previously leaked to Twitch streamer Kai Cenat last month. According to Yachty, the track faced sample clearance issues due to creator Mr. Hotspot's religious objections. As a result, Yachty’s vocals have been completely removed from the version Drake shared, leaving fans to wonder about the changes.
This trio of tracks is just the latest chapter in Drake’s cryptic rollout of new music. Earlier this month, he treated fans to several unreleased songs on 100gigs.org. These included "It's Up," featuring Young Thug and 21 Savage, "Blue Green Red," and "Housekeeping Knows," which features Latto. Along with the tracks, Drake also shared behind-the-scenes videos and unreleased cover art, fueling the hype and keeping fans engaged.
Drake's flurry of new music comes after a relatively quiet summer for the rapper. He’s been laying low following a heated rap feud with Kendrick Lamar. Kendrick’s sharp diss track, "Not Like Us," not only stirred up the rap scene but also dominated the charts, spending two weeks at the top of the Hot 100. This makes Drake's surprise releases even more intriguing as fans speculate about his next move.
As of now, there’s no word on when or if Drake’s latest tracks will become available for purchase or streaming. A rep for Drake hasn’t yet responded to Rolling Stone’s request for comment, leaving fans eagerly awaiting more details.
In summary, Drake’s recent releases are stirring up excitement in the music world. With collaborations like Playboi Carti and the mysterious changes to tracks like "SOD," it’s clear that Drake is keeping things unpredictable and fresh. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just curious about the latest buzz, these new tracks are a testament to Drake’s ongoing influence and his knack for keeping the music industry on its toes.
