The 6 God has returned with a new mixtape for us all to enjoy while quarantined. After months of teasers, SoundCloud leaks, and new singles and videos, Drake released Dark Lane Demo Tapes, at midnight on Friday (May 1) and we couldn’t be any happier.
Dark Lane Demo Tapes spans 14 tracks and finds the rapper connecting with a wide range of artists such as Playboi Carti, Fivio Foreign, Sosa Geek, Future, Young Thug, and industry newcomer Giveon. The mixtape is meant to serve as a teaser to his highly anticipated sixth studio album, which he says will be released sometime this summer. Dark Lane Demo Tapes is filled with anthems, inner thoughts, guest stars and big hooks, forming a more well-rounded project than we could’ve anticipated.
Drake is continuing to preview new music on social media, even hours after the release of DLDT. Last night he previewed a new track with rapper Roddy Rich, as well as another track where he was speaking in French. We can only hope the new album comes sooner rather than later. But for now we have a little something to enjoy from Drake in the meantime.
