Over the past few weeks, Drake has been hinting that new music was on the way. From the numerous photos he shared working in the studio to literally announcing a Murda Beatz-produced single on an Instagram Live comment a couple weeks ago, the 6 God has been alluding that new music was right around the corner, and on Friday night we were blessed with just that. Staying true to his word from Thursday night, Drake came through and released his new single “Nice For What,” which was accompanied with an official music video.
The single, which samples Lauryn Hill’s “Ex Factor,” is produced by Murda Beatz and finds Drizzy uplifting woman and addressing life for them in the digital age, while acknowledging & appreciating their hustle. The video followed the theme of woman’s empowerment and saw the likes of Issa Rae, Tiffany Haddish, Olivia Wilde, Zoe Saldana, Jourdan Dunn, and many others starring it.
Following its release, many people took to Twitter to voice their opinion on the song, and most of it is giving Drizzy praise for what they’re calling another hit. While of course some weren’t feeling the Lauryn sample, majority of people had good things to say abut the 6 God’s new single.
We compiled some of what was being said on Twitter for you to check out (below).
