If Beyoncé highlight “ Mine” is any indication, these two can do wonders together. It appears that Drake is ready to deviate from his winning formula and get a little weird. Drake agrees and, as if to reinforce that notion, he tells me that Boi-1da said he needs to listen to the non-Beyoncé song a few more times before he can decide whether it’s good or not. I compare it to what Kanye did on his own fourth album, 808s & Heartbreak. This song is likely about Drakes old Toronto flame Nebby, who hes had an on and off relationship with a few times.

Views From The 6 needs to shock listeners just as much as it needs to impress them. It peaked at 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2015, only to be beaten later by the Views song 'One Dance,' which hit 1 on the chart. His days of releasing lay-up bangers that everyone loves right away are over. The other is a song that he expects to inspire a paradigm shift. One is a collaboration with Beyoncé that he recorded a while ago. He only has two songs finished that he likes. The topic of our talk switches to Drake’s upcoming fourth album. Apparently, he only has two tracks done that he really likes - one is a Beyoncé collab and the other is something a little more far out. The song itself is a classic of Drake’s po-faced yearning top lines, with a wonderfully arranged beat that sounds like a Miami bass event happening down the street. In a really great new Drake profile on Four Pins that chronicles the lead-up and aftermath of Drake’s Coachella performance, the rapper drops some new info on Views From The 6, which seems like it’s progressing pretty slowly.
