Kendrick likes Drake with the melodies, but are these the melodies he needed the OV … er, rapper to sing? Drake produced a new observe unto the public in the late hrs of Monday, June 3, that includes in a “Hey There Delilah” Soundcloud remix by Snowd4y. Titled “Wah Gwan Delilah,” the new drop is component appreciate song, aspect Toronto anthem, with Snowd4y comparing thee beloved not to a summer’s day but to Dundas Square and title-dropping other community landmarks. “Wake up the city,” Drake captioned his Instagram Tale marketing the track. In contrast to the Simple White T’s Delilah, who took off to New York City, this a single lives so deep in the 6 that the singer has to finesse general public transit to connection up simply because they never have more than enough money on their Presto card. There’s a obscure threat in the refrain exactly where Snowd4y sings, “Oh, do not you be acting signify / Oh, there’s a .40 in my denims.” Is this a veiled threat?
Drake’s verse is just as unserious. He’s caught in site visitors, showing pics of Delilah to his buddy who “knows a gentleman that slapped it,” and having her on double dates with a “cro’nem for your bestie.” Did Kendrick scare him absent from the term crodie? By the end of the song, the pair have moved on from Delilah to Sabrina, comparing her to Toronto’s Square One particular mall rather. I imagine we’re supposed to giggle.
