Views

Was going to be yet the 3rd Meek Mill diss but Drake realized that it wasn't worth his time as he already won the beef.

Released as a single, later became track 20 from Drake's 2016 album Views.

OG Filename: Drake - Childs play idea draft 2 hatsdown snareup UNRLSD 2 Has a completely different hook, a more trap influenced beat, and no second verse. Likely V2 (version 2) of the song, determined via file name (suggesting v1 exists). Can be assumed that there are later versions, since the second verse is not present.

In a swiftly deleted Instagram post on October 12th 2015, Drake expressed his frustration at the leak of “Can I”, but stated his plans to finish the song for his upcoming album Views. However, the song did not end up on the album. The song had been leaked previously, but Drake shared the latest version on OVO Sound Radio Episode 7. On August 2nd, 2019, the song was re-released on all streaming services via Care Package with production differences.

Potential original version of the ending of 9, off Drake's album Views. Both snippets were present on leaked.cx for quite some time (prior to mid 2024). Neither have drake lyrics present. The feature being Rihanna is NOT confirmed, though many do argue that it is her. The only reason this entry is here is that the productions and vocals are extremely high quality, as well as the lyrics being directly from the song 9 by drake. This does not mean it's official, however if it is a fake, it is EXTREMELY well done (professional engineering, etc.)

A throwaway from the 'Views' sessions. “Pistols” shares Drake’s paranoia for intruders, as well as a contradictory lust for his lover. The song draws Spanish influences, thus continuing his ambition to transition his music to the global scale.

A longer version of "Pistols" with an extended outro instrumental is said to exist.

It's said that the 9 outro is actually its own song, but was scrapped.

Released as a single by Drake.

OG Filename: yoga flame noel ref 2 Original Drake version of "Pop Style" that Kanye recorded over. Partial snippet originally leaked November 21st, 2023.

OG Filename: PISTOL IN MY BED REF A version of "Pistols" with a Romeo Santos feature. OG file leaked on LEAKED.CX on May 24th, 2023. Encoded by FL Studio 12, meaning this version was likely made sometime after April 2015 and before July 2015.

A reference of "My Love" by Majid Jordan done by Drake. The lyrics are near-identical to the finished version, however, it features alternate production and an extended outro of over two minutes. Note that there was a previously leaked version with tags, that was followed by the version linked here. The version linked does not have tags, but Drakes lyrics cut off for a second every now and then. Still the original file, but it is odd.

Mentioned in Blonde notes from 01.27.14. Unknown if ever recorded.

Drake reference track. Mentioned by Drake in his 2018 Pusha T diss track "Duppy Freestyle". He has a writing credit on the released version, but it is unknown what he contributed.

Demo shown on 100 Gigs, the first verse is slightly extended including the line "Just to show the city what it takes to be alive for it" and after that Drake mumbles some lines that didn't made it to release.

Completely different song besides the beat which is the same on Views. Leaked on July 4th, 2023.

“Not Nice” was released by OVO artist PARTYNEXTDOOR in 2016 on his PARTYNEXTDOOR 3 project. This, however, is Drake’s version of the track. Unknown if this was ever Drakes song, or if this is just a reference for PND.
