This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

After three songs leaked in the space of a week, Drake has finally decided to officially release two new singles from his upcoming album Views from the Six.

"One Dance" featuring Wizkid & Kyla and "Pop Style" featuring The Throne (aka Jay-Z and Kanye West) were announced through Twitter and released exclusively on iTunes.

The singles follow on from “Summer Sixteen” which premiered in January on Drake’s Beats 1 show OVO Sound Radio.

In the past few weeks, the songs Controlla”, “These Days” and “Faithful” all leaked onto the internet, the first of which features Popcaan while the last features Pimp C.

Views from the Six is expected to drop at some stage this month. Drake was rumoured to be working on a remix of “Wolves” with Kanye West, but it looks like the pair may have been working on “Pop Style”.

Speaking about View from the 6, long-time collaborator Noah “40” Shebib said: “It’s going to be what everybody expects and wants from Drake and from us. A lot of introspection, very vivid. He’s discovering new flows, new cadences, new patterns.”

Beats-wise, “I’m trying to find ways to pull more untraditional sounds in, to push the boundaries a little further. Something about it should be special.”
