On Tuesday (Aug. 06), Drake unveiled approximately 100 GB worth of unreleased footage, music, studio sessions, and more on a new website titled 100 Gigs For Your Headtop. The website hosts 40 different folders containing various clips and videos documenting Drizzy's journey to becoming one of modern hip-hop's most prolific rappers.
The "100 Gig" website was revealed on Drizzy's new burner Instagram account (@plottttwistttttt) where he's silently uploaded 259 posts since the account's creation in June 2024. The rapper also included three vaulted tracks which include collaborations with Atlanta rappers Young Thug, 21 Savage, and Latto, which were made available for download.
Although several individuals online are speculating the rapper uploaded the 100 GB footage to take attention away from his recent beef with Kendrick Lamar, the OVO CEO is yet to officially state his reasoning behind the "data dump."
Trending
B-roll footage uploaded also includes clips of Drizzy playing with his son Adonis, his father Dennis Graham, producer Noah "40" Shebib, and more.
Every major highlight from footage uploaded to Drake's new "100 Gs" website
The new tracks uploaded on the website are Drizzy's first official music releases since his iconic back-and-forth with Kendrick Lamar, following up on his The Heart Part 6 which was the last record delivered during their beef.
Besides clips of early demo tracks and the oddly confusing "MIAMI_STORM" folder, available on the website, the range of B-roll footage uploaded to 100 Gigs For Your Headtop is expansive and takes fans behind the scenes documenting the creation of some of Drake's most popular projects.
From videos of Drizzy and Rihanna rehearsing Take Care to images of alternate album cover art pieces, this feature will catalog every major highlight from the OVO CEO's 100 GB data dump.
1) Drake records a demo for Kanye West's 2018 ye album
Back in 2018, Kanye West released a deeply self-reflective mini-album, ye, containing 7 full-length tracks. On the official tracklist, the rapper included a song titled Yikes, where he dives into themes of addiction, substance abuse, excess, mental health, and intoxication.
From the clip uploaded to 100 G's, fans get to see Drake recording and creating what would become the hook used in the song. It appears Drizzy was recording a demo reference track for Kanye, given that his name is credited as a writer on the record.
"S--t could get menacin', frightenin', find help / Sometimes I scare myself, myself / S--t could get menacin', frightenin', find help / Sometimes I scare, myself, myself" - Kanye West's hook on 'Yikes'.
2) Drake talks about his relationship with Serena Williams
Drizzy and former professional tennis player Serena Williams were involved in a brief intimate relationship several years ago, with Page Six reporting that an insider confirmed their relationship was short-lived and ended back in 2011.
In the clips uploaded to 100 G's, the rapper can be seen explaining to his mother, Sandra Graham, that his 2016 collaboration with Rihanna Too Good was inspired by his relationship with Serena.
"I know what kind of song to make. If I’m gonna talk about them, I’ll at least do them the justice of making them a song that they like. So, I know Serena very well and I know that she’ll hear it loud and clear, but she’ll also not hate me for it because it’s lighthearted." - Drizzy talking about Serena Williams inspiring his verse on 'Talk Good'.
3) OVO 40 and Drake discussing Jay-Z's verse on Talk Up off their 2018 album Scorpion
Included on the website were several clips of studio and listening sessions from the making of Drake's eighth No.1 album Scorpion, which was released back in 2018. Amongst the various videos was a clip capturing Noah "40" Shebib and Drake celebrating the completion of the album.
The duo also broke down the exact timeline by when Jay-Z would send them his verse for the 11th track titled Talk Up. Drake cited how he wanted to rest so he was awake to respond to Jay, who would be sending in his verse two hours after wrapping up a set from his "On the Run 2 Tour."
"I'm only laying down for two hours while Hov's doing the show. Cause I don't want him to hit me and be like 'hey what do you think of this' and I'm not there to respond. So I'm just gonna lay down" - Drake explained while discussing Hov's contribution to 'Talk Up'.
4) Drake and Rihanna rehearsing Take Care during a sound check
Although Drake and Rihanna are no longer on the best of terms, given the OVO CEO's ongoing beef with her baby daddy A$AP Rocky, the duo collaborated several times over the years and even reportedly dated back in 2009.
The 2-minute clip uploaded to 100 G's finds Drizzy and Rihanna performing their 2011 hit single Take Care, in what appeared to be a sound check for a 2014 show in Paris.
5) Drake helps Chantal Kreviazuk perform her hook on Over My Dead Body
A 1:33 minute clip showcases Drizzy working alongside singer-songwriter Chantal Kreviazuk in the studio, recording the hook for their 2011 record Over My Dead Body, which was included on the official tracklist for his second studio album Take Care.
"Oh, I know you don't love me, baby / They're trying to take you away from me / Only over my dead body" - Chantal Kreviazuk's hook on 'Over My Dead Body'.
6) Metro Boomin's Trance was seemingly supposed to be a part of Drake's 2022 album Honestly, Nevermind
Metro Boomin and Drake have been publicly beefing ever since the Grammy-nominated producer expressed his distaste for Drizzy's collaboration with 21 Savage on Her Loss.
Although their rivalry is more recent, the duo has collaborated several times over the years. A notable instance was reflected in a clip added to 100 G's, where a whiteboard highlights how the OVO CEO was supposed to include the Metro Boomin-produced Trance on his 2022 album Honestly, Nevermind.
The record was later included on Metro's HEROES & VILLAINS project instead, with the producer explaining during an interview with STREETZ IS WATCHING RADIO that he felt the song was already complete and there was "no room" for Drizzy on the record.
"He really wanted to get on it but I was letting him know that it was really just done for real. I was really just set on how it was. I was like, Bro, I ain’t trying to sell you no dream. I’m locked in where it was." - Metro Boomin stated during his interview on STREETZ IS WATCHING RADIO.
7) Drake unveils alternate cover artwork for old projects
As part of the "data dump," Drizzy included multiple unused "alternate" cover art pieces for several albums, which also include his more recent 2023 LP For All The Dogs.
The unused cover art for FATD initially appeared to have been inspired by an Egyptian-esque drawing before being replaced with Adonis's hand-drawn picture of a dog.
More artworks uploaded on 100 G's include an NSFW cover art for Certified Lover Boy, concept art pieces for Her Loss, and an unofficial back cover for Dark Lane Demo Tapes, which also confirms the mixtape was originally supposed to be titled Care Package 2.
8) Drizzy uploads three new vaulted tracks on "100 G's"
The first folder on the website is titled "NEW" and features three full-length vaulted tracks which include collaborations with Atlanta rappers Young Thug, 21 Savage, and Latto.
The production on the track titled HOUSEKEEPING KNOWS is credited to close friend and frequent collaborator DJ Gordo, who has previously worked with the rapper on Honestly, Nevermind. The three full-length tracks, available for download, on 100 Gigs For Your Headtop have been listed below:
- IT'S UP (Feat. Young Thug x 21 Savage)
- BLUE GREEN RED
- HOUSEKEEPING KNOWS (Feat. Latto)
"I love all my friends / Thinkin' about this life I provide for them / This world has some real things dividin' 'em / My right hand, he's Muslim, I'll die for him / My road manager is drunk as hell at 5 p.m. / I get knocked down, they help me rise again / Ref won't leave the game, I'm sayin' Bye with him" - Drizzy's intro on 'IT'S UP'.
Other notable footage included on the website are snippets of demo tracks recorded during the creation of albums like Take Care, Views, Certified Lover Boy, Honestly, Nevermind, and a scrapped collaboration with Rema titled Mention Me.
