In a move that is sure to stir up controversy, Drake has premiered his latest track "Rescue Me" on SiriusXM's Sound 42 during his guest appearance on the 100th episode of "The Fri Yiy Show." The song features production by BNYX and sees Drake singing about wanting someone who will be patient with him and get money with him, not take it from him. He goes on to say that the person doesn't need to be as famous as him, but they should come and rescue him and take him off the market.
However, the most intriguing part of the song is the soundbite of Kim Kardashian from the 2021 season finale of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," where she expresses her desire to divorce Kanye West. It's an interesting choice considering the rumors that Drake and Kim hooked up, which she has vehemently denied. These rumors have also been a point of contention during Drake's publicized beef with Kanye.
Drake is scheduled to close out this weekend's Dreamville Festival in Raleigh, North Carolina, where he may perform this controversial song for the first time.
