It’s officially Views From the 6 season, as Drake just dropped his new song, “Summer Sixteen,” during the latest episode of OVO Sound Radio on Beats 1.
Produced by Noah “40” Shebib, Boi-1da, and Cuebeatz, Drake exudes tons of confidence, and there’s plenty of quotables:
“I used to wanna be on Roc-a-Fella, then I turned into Jay.”
“Why would I put on a vest when I expect you to aim for the head?”
The song also samples The Winans’ “Question Is” at the end, which you can hear the original below.
The release comes after several hints from the Toronto rapper that the album is very close to being finished. The artwork, which is done by Filip Pagowski, is a reinterpretation of a fun Instagram post Drizzy did a few days ago. The 6 God is watching, y’all.
There’s speculation that Drake also has something special planned for NBA All-Star Weekend next month, which will take place in his hometown.
