Yebba has made Drake a happy man after she dropped a song of hers that was sampled on one of his tracks on For All the Dogs.
It all started when Drizzy took to his Instagram Stories recently and demanded that the Arkansas singer release the sampled song at the end of the track “Polar Opposites” from his eighth studio album.

“@yebbasmith drop the full song from end of ‘Polar Opposites,’ he said. “This is not a request it’s a demand [lock emoji].”
Yebba reposted the story and replied with crying laughing, and pink hearts emojis, signaling that she heard him loud and clear.

In a subsequent story, she posted a snippet of the actual record, titled “Waterfall (I adore you)” and tagged all the collaborators that were involved with making the smooth record for permission to let the full track see the light of day. “Drake said it so we must,” Yebba said in the story post.
Yebba then posted the same part of the song that’s at the tail end of “Polar Opposites” on her IG feed in its regular pitch. As soon as she posted it, the 6 God responded in the comments, saying: “Yes yes yes yes yes yes.”

Both Drake and Yebba last collaborated on the soulful fan favorite song, “Yebba’s Heartbreak,” taken from Drizzy’s sixth album Certified Lover Boy.
While the Toronto hitmaker is sending out special requests for specific tracks, he’s also apparently come in second place on his own record, according to JID.

A reporter caught up with the Dreamville rapper earlier this week in New York City and he was asked about the winner in the For All the Dogs face-off on the J. Cole-assisted “First Person Shooter,” and the Atlanta native sided with his boss.
“I’ma go with J. Cole all day. It wasn’t even close,” JID stated. “We love Drake though, but I don’t know.”
Before answering the question, JID also made sure to show love to Yeat — whether that means he thinks Yeat got the better of Drake on their “IDGAF” collab was not clear.
“First Person Shooter” served as the first Drake-Cole collab since 2013’s “Jodeci Freestyle” and the track is challenging for the No. 1 spot on this week’s Billboard Hot 100, which would give Cole his first chart-topper.
Drizzy will be adding another No. 1 to his collection either way as his only competition is himself with the Yeat-assisted “IDGAF” also in the running for No. 1.

With another chart-topper, Drake will tie Michael Jackson for the most No. 1 hits from a male soloist on the Billboard Hot 100 ever. Rihanna and Mariah Carey are still ahead of him in the category.
