If there's anyone who's been feeding their fans quality work with consistency over the past few years, it's Drake. 2022 saw the arrival of both Honestly, Nevermind and Her Loss with 21 Savage, both of which will be performed on the duo's quickly approaching (and highly-priced) It's All A Blur tour. Before that, in 2020 he boosted the mood amid the COVID-19 pandemic with 14 new titles on Dark Lane Temo Tapes. Today (May 1), that project is celebrating its third anniversary, giving you the perfect excuse to revisit it on DSPs.
If you don't have time to stream the nearly 50-minute-long effort, we suggest revisiting one of the most popular titles from the tracklist, "Chicago Freestyle," which is always guaranteed to invoke plenty of emotion thanks to Giveon's beautiful vocals. Of course, Champagne Papi also does his thing over the Noel Cadastre and Sevn Thomas-produced beat, chiefly reflecting on the most important lessons he's learned throughout his years spent climbing to the top of the charts, and the industry.
Revisit Drake and Giveon's "Chicago Freestyle"
Aside from that joint track, Drake also worked with several other friends on DLDT. Chris Brown came through for "Not You Too," while he and Future made magic together on "Desires." Other familiar voices we hear include Young Thug, Playboi Carti, Fivio Foreign, and Sosa Geek. As for solo songs, some of the 36-year-old's highest-streamed work on this project is "Toosie Slide," "War," and "From Florida With Love."
Even with all of the aforementioned releases, the father of one has been teasing even more coming our way in the near future on social media. It remains unclear when, or what, he plans to drop next, but we'll certainly keep you posted as we find out more. Revisit Drake's "Chicago Freestyle" featuring Giveon on YouTube above, or add the fan favourite to your playlist on Spotify/Apple Music. What's your favourite title from Dark Lane Demo Tapes?

Quotable Lyrics:
AMEX had a limit in the past
I had plenty women in the past
I done plenty sinnin' in the past
