Drake, the iconic Canadian rapper with countless chart-toppers, has sent shockwaves through the music industry. More than three months after blessing fans with For All the Dogs, the rapper now has a heart-to-heart revelation: He's pressing pause on music.
An unexpected pause in the playlist
On SiriusXM’s Sound 42, the In My Feelings rapper shared, “I probably won’t make music for a little bit. I need to focus on my health, first and foremost.” Citing mysterious and ongoing stomach issues, he emphasized the need for a healthy life. Though vague on the duration of this hiatus, he hinted at possibly being MIA for about a year.
Echoes from the past: Millie Bobby Brown saga
Amidst this unexpected announcement, For All the Dogs album carries a track that throws back to a past controversy with Stranger Things starlet, Millie Bobby Brown. Their unlikely friendship, given the age difference, had once raised eyebrows.
Drake's track Another Late Night sheds light on this controversy, indirectly addressing the skeptics and the so-called weirdos who seemed obsessed with their bond. The lyrics sharply retort, "Weirdos in my comments talkin’ ’bout some Millie Bobby, look. Bring them jokes up to the gang, we get to really flockin’."
The friendship, which Brown described in 2018 as nothing but lovely, became a hot topic, with the young actress urging the public to focus on more pressing global matters than their pure camaraderie. Drake’s track seems to be a clear reflection, a mirror to those who criticized, questioning their motives and intentions.
