Drake seems to dig his latest hit getting the mashup treatment with a Ye classic.
On Tuesday, Drizzy posted a fan-created remix that puts “Nokia” over the beat from Ye’s “Slow Jamz.”
Drake cosigning this unofficial remix comes after years of beef between the two rappers. Ye recently talked about Drake during a stream with Akademiks earlier this month, revealing he reached out to the Toronto star about possibly working together. “You know, I sent ‘Preacher Man’ off Bully, the intro, to Drake first,” Ye said. “He said something like, ‘Oh man, don’t mean to, like, spoil your dreams’ or some shit,” Ye added when asked how Drake responded. “I don’t know. He just did his thing and shit. I think before it’s all said and done, like, I’ll do an album.”
So far, “Forever” remains the only track featuring both Drake and Ye, though Ye co-produced “Find Your Love,” “Feel No Ways,” “Say What’s Real” and other songs for the five-time Grammy winner. As for a collab album between these rap heavyweights, the closest fans probably got was their 2021 Free Larry Hoover benefit concert.
