Spooky Drake Drops Surprise EP "Scary Hours"
Spooky Drake released a surprise EP for his fans this past Friday, January 19. The two-track EP, Scary Hours, features production from notable hitmakers like Boi-1da and Cardo Got Wings. These are the first solo singles Drake has released since June of 2017.
Drake spills his late night thoughts and feelings on both songs. Track one, “God’s Plan” gives a shout out to the big “G” while referring to himself as a G.O.D. This isn’t surprising as Drake has referred to himself as the “6 God” many times in the past and present.
“God’s Plan” is my personal favorite between the two: beat-wise and because of its simplicity. Drake discusses his future as a rap icon and the way that God hasn’t let him down when it comes to his career.
Track two takes a different approach. “Diplomatic Immunity” features lines that allude to his past relationship with Jennifer Lopez and his continual feud with Joe Budden.
Drake has never shied from saying what’s on his mind. I know we haven’t forgotten the song “Back to Back.” In “Diplomatic Immunity,” Drake talks about how he doesn’t have to be diplomatic to people that disrespect him. Sounds fair. Drake’s shots at Joe Budden can be found in this line:
“S#!t is complex like short n***as ’round tall ladies
I gotta watch who I’m talking to like it’s all-ages
I’ve seen buddin’ careers turn to sit around and
talk about other careers, judging’ their peers”
With this surprise EP, I wonder what else Drake has up his sleeves in 2018. Have you heard Scary Hours?
