Throughout the day, rumors persisted that Drake would release a “surprise” project similar to his 2015 mixtape If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late.
Dubbed Dark Lane Demo Tapes, many of the songs on the project have either been released (“War,” “Toosie Slide,” “When To Say When,” “Chicago Freestyle,” “Desires” with Future) or have been leaked throughout the past several weeks. Meanwhile, the likes of Giveon, Chris Brown, Young Thug, Playboi Carti, Fivio Foreign and Sosa Geek are among the features.
“My brothers Oliver El-Khatib and OVO Noel put together alot of the songs people have been asking for (some leaks and some joints from SoundCloud and some new vibes),” Drake said on Instagram. “My 6th STUDIO ALBUM DROPPING SUMMER 2020!!! Lucky number 6.”
