On Tuesday (August 6), Drake surprised fans by releasing 100GB of content on a website called 100gigs.org. The news initially appeared to be leaked, as it leaked from a seemingly random Instagram account now speculated to be Drake’s burner.
“100 shows for the top of your head,” the account declared.
Drake’s label OVO Sound confirmed that the content was not leaked on X (formerly Twitter). It shared a link to the site and tagged Drake in a post Tuesday afternoon.
The 100GB version includes three new songs. Lato, who appears in one of the tracks, took to her social media platform to share a video clip of herself riding a horse.
Drake asked Lato to write a song called “Housekeeping Knows.” Frequent collaborators 21 Savage and the incarcerated Young Thug penned a song called “It’s Up.” The third track is a solo cut called “Blue Green Red.”

The rest is filled with behind-the-scenes footage from Drake’s music videos, studio sessions, and more. Every folder on the 100 Shows website is available for download.
Drake’s unexpected drop is his first new music since his controversial battle with Kendrick Lamar. Drake was the last to release a diss track during their feud, but K. Dot was widely declared the winner with his hit single “Not Like Us.” Drake’s “The Heart Part 6” essentially became a footnote after its release in May.
Lamar’s “Not Like Us” reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, reaching a level of popularity that few diss songs can achieve. K. Dot performed the song several times in June at The Pop Out: Ken & Friends, a triumphant performance. The event was broadcast live on Amazon Prime Video. Lamar released the music video for “Not Like Us” in July.
