Posted by Drake shocked the world on Friday (June 17) when he unleashed his surprise album Honestly, Nevermind. What fans got was not what they expected from the 6 God as he laced them up with pure dance records throughout the whole project.
Drizzy unleashed a music video for the second track off the album titled “Falling Back” leading fans to think it would be the first single, however, the Toronto native has another plan.

The 6 God isn’t phased by the polarizing reaction he’s getting for his new album. He addressed the initial backlash explaining it’s not a problem that listeners aren’t feeling it just yet.
“It’s all good if you don’t get it yet,” Drake said. “That’s what we do! We wait for you to catch up. We in here, though, we caught up already. On to the next. My goodness!”
