While many of us were in a deep state of slumber, Drake was hammering away at some hits in the lab, deciding to break out of his shell and preview a ton of previously-unreleased songs on Instagram Live.
The rapper rarely ever lets fans into his world before the album is ready to drop, but these are uncertain times and Drake felt a sudden urge to unlock all these vibes early, allowing his most loyal (and awake) fans to reap the benefits.
One of the most exciting songs played during the live-stream, which was shared by OVO Mark, was the long-anticipated collaboration from Drake and Playboi Carti called "Pain 1993." As pointed out by Complex, the record is expected to be included on the upcoming album by Playboi Carti, titled Whole Lotta Red.

Another track that turned heads was a collaboration between Drake, Fivio Foreign, and Sosa Geek.
Among the other chunes played during the display are a joint from the 6ix God and Popcaan, and other solo joints that we've heard rumblings of over the years.
We also got news that "Not Around," one of the songs that recently surfaced online, will actually be on Drake's new album in a different form. The version that people have heard is not complete.
Who's ready for new music from The Boy?
Nipsey Hussle’s Tour DJ Describes Unreleased Tracks As Prophetic
Nipsey Hussle’s tour DJ, DJ VIP, says the late rapper was “tapped into something else” in unreleased music.
DJ VIP, Nipsey Hussle‘s official tour DJ, spoke to REVOLT TV in a new installment of Tour Tales that was released today — the one-year anniversary of Nipsey’s death. Recounting memorable times on tour and the possibilities of a tribute show, DJ VIP touched on the possibility of new music being released. There’s apparently a bank of unreleased music from Nipsey Hussle but DJ VIP said that there aren’t any immediate plans to his knowledge to release any of it.
“First of all, if any music ever comes out, it’s going to be with the blessing of Sam [Asghedom] (Nipsey’s brother) and the family. So, at this point, that’s something they would have to answer,” he said. “Right now, there’s a ton of Nipsey music that hasn’t been released that is original Nipsey music. But, that’s up to them. At this point, there are no plans for anything to come out in the immediate future.”
He explained that the new music Nipsey recorded post-Victory Lap found him in a whole other zone than anyone’s ever heard him in.
“There are a couple that is sickly chilling. To hear them in the context of now, it sounds like he knew his future. I won’t go into too many details on what it is, but you can tell that he was just tapped into something else,” he said about some of the few unreleased tracks he’s heard. “He wasn’t saying a bunch of stuff in every song just to say every situation is applicable to him. He was painting very clear pictures. There’s a couple of songs that are really eerie to hear because of the context of the situation now.”
Future & Lori Harvey Rap Along To Unreleased Music
Lori Harvey already knows all the words to this unreleased Future track.
A major perk of dating Future is getting to hear his stash of unreleased music, which must be infinite. His girlfriend Lori Harvey showed on her Instagram Story on Saturday night (Feb. 22) that she has been taking full advantage of this benefit.
While having a date night, Future and Lori drove around bumping one of his songs, the full version of which has not yet made its way to our longing ears. Either Lori happened to be in the studio while Future was cooking up the track or she's been devotedly listening to it on her own time because, in the video she posted, she raps along to every word. Perhaps she's such a fan of this one because it contains lyrical references to her. "Pussy was leaking, I fucked on a jet / We made a bond to never forget / Cancel that hoe, she try fuck on my chick," Future raps (I think?).
At first, the camera only shows the 22-year-old model jamming. It then pans to show Future in the driver seat, who appears pretty confident that he made another hit. Lori's gold Rolex stands out in the dark car. The watch was speculated to have been a Christmas gift from Future, since he has a track record of treating his women to expensive timepieces. Another perk of dating the rapper.
Tons Of Juice WRLD’s Unreleased Music Has Been Leaked Online
Dozens of songs from the late artist’s vault have surfaced online.
Juice WRLD’s tragic death last month hit the world hard, and his musical genius and impressive freestyling skills continue to be remembered. The young Chicago rapper released his last body of work in March of 2019 with Death Race For Love, so it’s no surprise that he would have already had tons of music in the vault prior to his passing. It looks like one Internet nuisance assumed as much, since, per HipHopNMore, a hacker has managed to get their hands on Juice’s inventory of unreleased tracks. HHNM shared that dozens of Juice’s songs have been posted on SoundCloud under the name “999 WRLD.” While an exact number has not yet been determined, at least 26 tracks from the young talent have surfaced online.

The tracks in the leaked collection bear titles like “Boss Of Me,” “Codependent,” “Dome,” “Facetious,” “F*ck About Your Feelings,” “Hypnotic,” “KKK/999,” “Runaway,” “Work Out,” though it is not known whether Juice gave these names to these songs himself. Among the mix is a collab with Lil Yachty called “Confused.” Though Juice’s estate and family have not announced any plans to release a posthumous album of any kind, these tracks just might end up on there if such a thing occurs. Juice was posthumously featured on “Godzilla” off of Eminem‘s latest album, Music To Be Murdered By, which dropped without warning on Friday. A photo of Juice from the night he recorded his verse on the track was shared following the surprise drop.
