Drake surprised fans this week with an early listen of one of the bonus tracks slated to appear on the physical version of his latest album, If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late. Yelawolf grabbed his own attention with the release of “Best Friend,” which features the solitary guest appearance on his upcoming album Love Story in the form of an Eminem verse.
Elsewhere, Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth performed their Spotify record-breaking hit “See You Again” on Ellen and Ciara released a remix of her track “I Bet” featuring a guest spot from T.I.
Drake Releases IYRTITL Bonus Cut
Nodding back to the sentimental aesthetic he originally became popular with, Drake released a bonus If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late cut early this week around the same time as his surprise kiss with Madonna at Coachella went viral. On the track Drake laments a broken-down and long-distance relationship, singing, “Why you never come to where I stay?”
The physical, collector’s edition of Drake latest album is set for release on Tuesday, April 21.

For his part, Em gets fired up on the track with a blinding flurry of multi-syllable bars and references to his fallen friend and fellow rapper Proof.
