The “God’s Plan” Artist Speaks Out
Drake, the rap superstar who’s no stranger to controversy, has finally broken his silence on a topic that’s been buzzing on social media for years. Remember when the internet went into a frenzy over his friendship with “Stranger Things” star Millie Bobby Brown? Well, Drake has something to say about it.
“Weirdos in my comments talkin’ ‘bout some Millie Bobby, look / Bring them jokes up to the gang, we get to really flockin’.”
These lines from his new track “Another Late Night,” part of his latest album “For All The Dogs,” make it clear that Drake has had enough of the chatter.
The Friendship That Raised Eyebrows
Back in 2018, Millie Bobby Brown revealed that Drake was giving her “boy advice,” sparking a wave of online debate. The then-14-year-old actress and the rapper, who has an 18-year age gap, were questioned for the appropriateness of their friendship.
“It was weird to make a lovely friendship your headline,” Brown responded at the time.
The two first crossed paths at the Brisbane Supernova convention in Australia, where Brown was making an appearance.
A Polarizing Album
Released on October 6, “For All The Dogs” features a star-studded lineup including SZA, Bad Bunny, 21 Savage, Sexxy Red, and Chief Keef. However, the album has received mixed reviews. Nadine Smith from The Independent gave it a two-star rating, stating:
“Drake tries and fails to prove he can keep up with the cool kids. For better or worse, the album is at its best when Drake’s not there.”
A Surprise Announcement: Drake’s Hiatus
In a surprising turn of events, Drake announced he would be taking a break from music for “a year or so” to focus on his health. The rapper has been dealing with stomach issues and feels the need to prioritize his well-being.
“I probably won’t make music for a little bit,” said Drake. “I need to focus on my health, first and foremost, and I’ll talk about that soon enough.”
Drake also hinted at other projects he’d like to focus on during his hiatus, although he kept the details under wraps.
The Man Behind the Music: What’s Next for Drake?
As Drake steps back from the limelight to focus on his health and other ventures, fans and critics alike are left to ponder what’s next for the artist. Will his break bring a new perspective to his music, or will he continue to be a magnet for controversy? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure: Drake’s never far from the headlines.
