a sneak peak of some new music.

music updates here from my at-home studio, and Drake is also busy at work in his at-home
studio, as he went on Instagram Live and announced that he’s working on his next album.
We’re just happy to know that Champagne Papi is clearly thriving in Quarantine.
The rapper took to Instagram Live early Tuesday morning to show off what he’s been working
on, and even gave fans a sneak peak of some of his new songs.

Ok, so if you missed Drake going Live on Instagram, it may be because he didn’t go live on his
own account.
Drake joined OVOMark on his IG Live to share multiple snippets of unreleased music with
fans.
One of the tracks Drake shared is a collaboration with Playboi Carti, which is expected to be
released on Carti’s upcoming sophomore album, ‘Whole Lotta Red’.
The track is called ‘Pain 1993,’ and we have a sneak peak of it right here!
Take a listen...
It definitely sounds like a Summer jam!
Drake also previewed a new version of the previously leaked track, ‘Not Around,’
and confirmed that the song will be on his new album.
“People keep asking me to play ‘Not Around,’ don’t worry, a new version is coming on
the album, don’t worry.
Proper version, proper version.”
Drake continued on to say that the album is, indeed, on the way.
Take a look.
“We’re just having fun getting warmed up.
Album on the way.”
Fans are excited to say the least, given the fact that it’s been about two years since
Drake dropped his last album, ‘Scorpion.’
One fan took to Twitter to say, “Honestly, a Drake album after this whole madness is
over is what I think I will need for my sanity therapy.”
Another fan said, “All of the leaks we’ve heard from Drake so far have been so fire,
that album is going to be something else!”
And this fan shared their thoughts on what type of music the upcoming album could feature,
tweeting, “Look, I’d want a drake full rap album but his versatility is unmatched.
He has to make music for his different set of fans on his albums.”
And seriously, I have to agree!
I mean, there’s literally a Drake song for whatever mood you’re in.
The man knows how to appeal to so many different audiences…
Honestly, Drake is always one of my ‘go-to’s’ whatever mood I’m in!
Before we move on, comment down below and let us know your thoughts on Drake’s new
music so far, and when you think we’ll get the full album!
Of course, we can’t talk about Drake’s new music without mentioning his latest single,
‘Toosie Slide,’ which dropped just a few days ago.
The song became an instant hit, and has honestly been stuck in my head ever since it was released.
But the song actually went viral a few days before the official drop.
Internet-famous dancer Toosie told Rolling Stone that Drake asked him for his help with
the song.
Drake sent a snippet of the then-unnamed track to Toosie and asked him to come up with a
dance for it.
This is what they came up with!
Once Toosie and three of his friends posted the choreography, now named the “Toosie
Slide” on TikTok, millions of others began to copy the dance, making it a viral sensation
before the track was even available online.
This wouldn’t be the first time TikTok has helped launch a song into the top charts.
If you’re anything like me, you’ve had ‘Say So’ by Doja Cat and ‘Savage’
by Megan Thee Stallion literally on repeat for weeks!
Drake gave a shout out to Toosie for creating the dance on his IG Live.
Take a look.
“Shoutout to Toosie!
When I first made that song I was only talking about the moonwalk, But Toosie made a dance
to that sh*t so it’s poppin now.
I didn’t know it was gonna be a dance song like that but it is what it is.”
Imagine your song going viral before it drops on streaming platforms…
With TikTok, clearly anything is possible!
We cannot wait to hear what Drake has in store for us next!
Until then, I’ll just be doing the ‘Toosie Slide’ until I can get it right…
Right foot up, left foot slide…
Alright, I gotta go practice!
