During his performance at Coachella 2015, Drake took a few minutes to chop it up with Ernest Baker of Four Pins to finally — revealing some new information in the process. During the brief sit-down, Drake opened up on his forthcoming album saying he’s loving two tracks from the project. One of the tracks being a Beyoncé-laced single.
Take a look at an excerpt from the interview below and stay tuned for more details. BOOM!
The topic of our talk switches to Drake’s upcoming fourth album. He only has two songs finished that he likes. One is a collaboration with Beyoncé that he recorded a while ago. The other is a song that he expects to inspire a paradigm shift. His days of releasing lay-up bangers that everyone loves right away are over. For now.
Views From The 6 needs to shock listeners just as much as it needs to impress them. I compare it to what Kanye did on his own fourth album, 808s & Heartbreak. 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. It appears that Drake is ready to deviate from his winning formula and get a little weird.
