Drake "What Did I Miss?"
As for his newest single, "What Did I Miss?," the song sees Drake reflecting on his viral feud with Kendrick Lamar and the number of former friends he lost as a result. "I saw bro went to Pop Out with them, but been d*ck riding gang since 'Headlines.' / It feels like nobody's there until you start givin' out two-tones / And nobody cares until they in front of your tombstone / Y'all been on that type of timing for too long," he raps on the track.
It arrives as Drake continues to prepare for the release of his next studio album, which will be his first solo effort since the beef. He previously released Some Sexy Songs 4 U as a collaborative effort with PartyNextDoor in February. Drake first confirmed he's at work on a new project while streaming with Adin Ross on Kick back in April. “Every time, every journey. Working on a new album, it’s a slap," he said at the time, as caught by Rolling Stone.
