The Toronto superstar hosted a 2000’s themed birthday party last night in LA. The party included a number of throwback gems from the early to mid-2000s, such as a Blockbuster video wall, a Rap City Booth, a 106 & Park set and many more. A Sandra’s Rose Room was also featured with pictures of Drake and his mother along with a plethora of red roses.
If you were lucky enough to attend, you got to experience this one of a kind shindig. Drake even raffled off Chanel bags as well.
The 6 God’s road to his 32nd year was a roller coaster, but a success nonetheless. The year started with the released of the Scary Hours EP, which included the Billboard smash, “Gods Plan.” The song topped the Billboard Hot 100 charts for 11 weeks. It was bounced out by its follow up, “Nice For What,” for a number of weeks as well. With the help of Shiggy, “In My Feelings” became Drake’s third Hot 100 topper, leading to his successful Aubrey and The Three Migos Tour. Aside from his musical success, he hopped into a rap beef with Pusha T, but also squashed beefs of the past.
Drizzy brought both Meek Mill and Chris Brown on stage to perform, during his US tour. Meek performed “Dream and Nightmares” in Boston, and Breezy performed “Party” in Los Angeles. These moments were defining for the culture. In a competitive industry, feuds sometimes occur, but those moments are more progressive than the beef that proceeds it.
With that being said, The Source would like to wish Drake a.k.a. “Champagne Papi” More Life and Happy Birthday.
Drake and Jorja Smith create more magic together. Both artists collaborated on Drake’s remake of Black Coffee’s cookout classic, “Superman.” Since the release of “Get It Together” off his 2017 playlist, More Life, the two artists have yet to release another track together. The connection started back in 2016 when 6ix God said “Where Did I Go?” was his favorite song at the moment. Smith uploaded the song on Soundcloud and was only nineteen-years-old. Any recognition or co-sign from Drizzy is a standout accomplishment in itself.
The following year she was featured on two tracks on More Life, including “Jorja Interlude.” Her fan base has grown since the release of her debut album, Lost & Found. Although the “God’s Plan” was not featured on the April 2018 release, a single featuring the two has surfaced. The new song is called “I Could Never.” Both Drake and Jorja sing on the track to create a late night vibe. “Get It Together” is a much more uptempo vibe, so it is the complete opposite of “I Could Never.”
“You’ve told me things
Harsh truth to my face like
Been told to walk away (just know)
I could never
Things that I would choose to do with you if I had time though
Thousand times I fucked you in my mind, trust me I know”
Jorja comes through to compliment Drizzy melancholy like tone.
“Sometimes I ask how you could ever want me
How could you choose that you would ever love me
Yours were the truest eyes I’d ever seen
To be in a stare right back at me”
Drake is recovering after canceling his tour Miami tour dates. Aubrey and The Three Migos touchdown in New Orleans, LA tonight.
