Drake has shared 100GB (gigabytes) worth of data, that includes three previously unheard songs – find out more below.
The Toronto rapper shared the data to a new website, 100gigs.org. The first folder on the site is titled ‘NEW’, and comprises three songs: ‘It’s Up’, ‘Blue Green Red’ and ‘Housekeeping Knows’.
Of the three, ‘It’s Up’ is the most rap-oriented and features Young Thug on the trap track. ‘Housekeeping Knows’ takes on a dancier vibe and features Latto, while ‘Blue Green Red’ is a slower club tune and does not include a feature.
Other materials available on the site are behind-the-scenes clips from music videos, tour rehearsals, studio footage, unused cover art for albums (for ‘For All The Dogs’ and ‘Certified Lover Boy’) and singles and more. All of the material on the 100gigs site is free and available for download.
One clip sees Drake coming up with and recording the reference hook for Kanye West‘s 2018 track ‘Yikes’, from the latter’s ‘ye’.
