Scheduled for this November 19, French Montana’s new album contained a feat with Drake. The latter rejected him out of respect for the victims of Astroworld.
On November 19, French Montana unveils its new album They Got Amnesia. And as usual, the rapper has invited a lot of artists, including Rick Ross, Kodak Black, Lil Durk, Doja Cat and Fivio Foreign. An extended guest list that has 15 in all, instead of 16. Indeed, Drake had to be present on the song “Splash Brothers”. But TMZ has revealed that the track ultimately won’t be released.
Thus, sources close to the rapper informed the media that Drake did not want the song to be released on the originally scheduled date. Still in shock after the events of Astroworld, Drizzy thinks it wouldn’t be appropriate to release new music already right now. Prosecuted because of this dramatic night, the rapper does not yet seem ready to return to the front of the stage.
Drake: a pic to Kanye West in his verse?
In addition, it seems that his verse contains a pic addressed to Kanye West. Indeed, a snippet of the leaked song, we can hear Drake rapping: “I fucked a rapper’s wife”. Many then thought it was Kim Kardashian. While the two best enemies are now reconciled, the hypothesis of a withdrawal of the piece because of this phase is growing. A hypothesis swept away by those close to Drake claiming, still for TMZ, that the postponement of the song is only linked to the incidents of Astroworld.
Although Drake does not seem to have his head on music at the moment, the track should indeed be released. And this, on the deluxe version of They Got Amnesia, which French Montana has already announced. For now, Drake has assured that he is doing everything he can to help the families of the victims of Astroworld. A drama that goes far beyond music.
