Drake has shared 100 gigabytes of data, including three new songs and tons of B-roll footage, on a website called 100 Gigs for Your Headtop. The three tracks are “It’s Up” featuring Young Thug and 21 Savage, “Blue Green Red,” and the Gordo-produced “Housekeeping Knows” featuring Latto. Also available to download on the site are behind-the-scenes clips from music videos, tour rehearsals, and studio footage, among other shots.
This is the first new music that Drake has dropped since getting entangled in the historic diss track-turned-elongated-beef with Kendrick Lamar. The months-long drama began with Lamar’s “Like That” back in March, after which other rappers jumped in—and out—of the fight. This spring, they started shooting off tracks quickly; Lamar shared “Euphoria” and “6:16 in LA,” Drake replied with “Family Matters,” and Lamar responded immediately with “Meet the Grahams” and the now-historic “Not Like Us.” A few days later, Drake dropped “The Heart Part 6,” but by then the damage was done, as evidenced by “Not Like Us” debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
So much happened in that diss track whirlwind that it’s easy to forget it’s been less than a year since Drake’s last album, For All the Dogs, came out.
