With three official leaks from the Canadian rapper released over the weekend, two Drake songs claim the top spots with the very different sounding “6 God” and “Heat of the Moment” at #1 and #2 respectively. Following news of two Young Money album delays, Nicki Minaj released her new Pinkprint single “Only” with prominent features from Drake and Lil Wayne. Finally, Jay Rock brings along Kendrick Lamar for his latest single while fans look ahead to the TDE rapper’s upcoming album.
Elsewhere on the list a full version of Nas‘ recent track over a J DillaDonuts track is released, Lil Wayne offers a single to fans to compensate for his album delay, and Tyga lets loose his latest song.
Drake Leaks Two New Songs
The day after he turned 28, Drake took to Twitter to warn fans of an upcoming music dump before letting three new tracks go on his website ovosound.com. Apparently staying ahead of hackers who he hinted already had the tracks (“How About Now” had already leaked by that point), Drake released “6 God” and “Heat of the Moment” with production from his mainstays Boi-1da and 40.

“Black Benz on the road, boy / I already had a Rolls Royce / Sold a couple Bentleys last week, they were my old toys,” Drake raps on “6 God,” “I’m the real 6 God, boy.” Drake also announced that the songs aren’t a part of an EP but didn’t confirm if the tracks will appear on his upcoming album.
A couple days after the leak, HipHopDX writers reacted to the songs and compared the two to one another. Describing the leak as a whole, editor Omar Burgess wrote, “At worst, this keeps Drake in the news while he builds steam for the next album. At best, he’s got an accidental hit on his hands since there was a threat of this getting leaked anyway. Maybe this gets a video and Dennis Graham busts out that Wallace Scott/Whispers-style mustache.”
Nicki Minaj Enlists Drake, Lil Wayne, and Chris Brown For “Only”
With news of Lil Wayne’s album being postponed until December (and split into two parts) as well Nicki Minaj’s latest being delayed until even later, fans at least got a Young Money showcase with The Pinkprint emcee’s latest single “Only.” Chris Brown offers the song’s hook and Minaj begins first, addressing rumors of a romantic relationship with either Drake or Wayne: “I never fucked Wayne, I never fucked Drake / On my life man, fuck’s sake / If I did, I’d menage with’em and let’em eat my ass like a cupcake / My man full, he just ate / I don’t duck nobody, but tape,” she raps. Both Wayne and Drake start their own verses with the same “I never fucked Nicki” opener as well.

Drake’s verse yielded the already-oft-quoted line, “”I like my girls BBW, the type that wanna suck you dry then eat some lunch with you.”
Minaj’s boyfriend, Safaree, took to Twitter to respond to the song and let fans was there when it was recorded.
Kendrick Lamar Features On New Jay Rock Single
With his upcoming album on the way, Jay Rock’s latest Kendrick Lamar featuring single landed a spot on a Dr. Dre Beats commercial with cameos from athletes like LeBron James, Cam Newton, Serena Williams, and more. “Pay For It” also features singer Chantal and finds both rappers charged up over the Sounwave beat. “Roadblock in front of me, look I’m runnin’ through it / Stick and move it / Sippin’ that Hennessy, this my gutter fluid / Nothin’ to it,” Jay Rock raps in the third verse.
