Drake song ‘Wick Man’. Fans had noticed that the songwriting credits on the track included the name ‘K.
De Bruyne’, but the Premier League star has responded online that he did not, in fact, have any involvement. Posting on X, formerly Twitter, de Bruyne posted a photograph of himself and Drake together, alongside the writing credits of ‘Wick Man’, adding: “@Drake needed an assist.” all jokes aside, it's not me! Huge fan though!— Kevin De Bruyne (@KevinDeBruyne) November 17, 2023In a second post, he added: “All jokes aside, it’s not me! Huge fan though!” ‘Wick Man’ is included on Drake’s newest release, ‘Scary Hours 3’, which was released on Friday (November 17).
It follows on from the 2021 EP ‘Scary Hours 2’ and the 2018 record ‘Scary Hours’. He released the six-track project with only a few hours’ warning, just six weeks after the release of his latest full-length album ‘For All the Dogs’.
At the time of that release, Drake announced that he would be taking a break from making music to focus on his health. ‘Scary Hours 3’ includes a reference to Taylor Swift on its opening track ‘Red Button’, where he raps: “Taylor Swift the only n**** that I ever rated/ Only one that could make me drop the album just a little later.” On the same song, Drake goes on to address his on-off feud with Kanye West: “Every time that Yeezy call the truce/ He had my head inflated/ Thinking we going to finally peace it up and get to levitating/ Realized that everything premeditated.” Meanwhile, Drake and 21 Savage are up for numerous Grammys in 2024 after the former ended his boycott of the awards ceremony and submitted ‘Her Loss’ for consideration.

Drake announced the surprise release of his “Scary Hours 3” EP — in an elaborate, two-minute trailer posted on Instagram — mere hours before it dropped at midnight on Friday, I could barely muster up a shrug.Nor was I impressed that he apparently came up with all six of these new songs just five days right before the trailer dropped. (Although OK, OK, the fact that he could get his hometown Toronto Symphony Orchestra onboard for a quickie shoot is a baller flex.)This EP — the third in his “Scary Hours” series that started in 2018 — comes only six weeks after the release of the hip-hop superstar’s “For All the Dogs” album, and its six tracks are also featured on an expanded “Scary Hours” edition of Drake’s eighth solo LP.But in case you aren’t keeping track — and really, how could all but the most devoted Drizzy fans be at this point? — “For All the Dogs” was already 22(!) new Drake songs.
