Drake's song from upcoming album "Views from The 6" entitled "How Bout Now" has been hacked and released on October 19, and the rapper responded by posting two more songs, "Heat of the Moment" and "6 God."
Hollywood Life reports that two more songs from the rapper Drake has been released, this time officially, after his song, "How Bout Now," made it online without his consent. The two songs are entitled "Heat of the Moment" and "6 God."
Slate says that most of the copies of "How Bout Now" had been taken down immediately after being leaked. Despite this, the rapper chose to rerelease "How Bout Now," initially released on October 19th, shares Rolling Stone. Drake's Twitter post confirmed that he released the songs himself and he opted to do it before the hackers could. Prior to releasing the songs, Drake posted on Twitter that fans should "probably keep an eye on that ovosound.com in the next hour."
After the release of the three songs, it's not confirmed whether they will still be included in Drake's fourth album when it comes out, mentions Music Times. However, Rolling Stone relays that each of the three songs was released with an album cover for "Views from the 6." "Views from The 6" has been announced in July, but there is no definite release date yet. The album is supposedly about Drake's hometown, Toronto.
While Slate describes "How Bout Now" as a "touching, expertly detailed" song showing "vulnerability and candor that set Drake apart from other rappers," Hollywood Life describes the two other released songs differently. According to the site, "Heat of the Moment" talks about Drake not having "room in his head to think about heavy things when he doesn't know how to settle down, nor does he understand unconditional love." Meanwhile, "6 God" talks about "money first" and how the singer supposedly thinks other rappers "lost it because they don't want to do the work."
