Drake dropped 100 gigabytes of content, including songs, videos, photos, and PowerPoint presentations, on August 6, 2024. Drizzy released what is called a data dump in the hip-hop arena through a website called 100 Gigs for Your Headtop, which features not only music but other media as well.
The website currently comprises three songs: Blue Green Red, Housekeeping Knows featuring Latto, and It's Up featuring 21 Savage and Young Thug. The 100 Gigs for Your Headtop website features multiple folders with dates and months in 2024 ranging between January and July, and the three new songs are in a folder titled 1_NEW.
The website's legitimacy was confirmed once Drizzy posted videos from an Instagram account called @plottttwistttttt on his Instagram stories, and his record label, OVO Sound, posted the same on its social media accounts.
"I was asking if we should put Future on this s**t"— Drake mentions considering Future to collab on Hotline Bling
The 100 Gigs for Your Headtop data dump released by Drake not only comprises songs and photos but also BTS videos of Hotline Bling and footage from his studio album Honestly Nevermind. The data dump website also comprises Drake's videos showcasing his work in the studio with Noah "40" Shebib and Boi-1da-Noah.
Among the videos is a 25-minute long clip of Drake talking about the process behind his studio album Views, a video of his recording the reference track for his verse feature in Kanye West's Yikes, a video of the One Dance rapper playing ping-pong with Steph Curry, as well as a clip of Drizzy rehearsing a live performance of Take Care with Rihanna.
Since his track with Rihanna was released in 2011, the video of their rehearsal appears to be from many years ago.
In the BTS video of Hotline Bling, Drizzy is seen doing hookah in the studio and listening to the song while giving his commentary on the same.
“It’s melody but it’s a vibe. When I was writing it, I wrote it as a Shy Glizzy song… That’s why I was asking if we should put Future on this s**t,” Drake says in the video.
Repeating his statement, Drake says, "Me and future on this s**t". In another video from the Hotline Bling BTS, the Family Matters rapper talked about the inspiration for the track's title, crediting it to his physical relations with someone.
Sharing the story behind the song's title, Drizzy recalls without mentioning the name of the woman that they used to be in bed together and "her phone would be blowing up," so he saved her name in his phone as "Hotline Bling."
Calling it a "sick name," the rapper suggested that it should be his artist name.
“If I was a dancehall artist, I would be Hotline Bling."
Apart from BTS videos of his studio and song curation processes, the 100 Gigs for Your Headtop website features random videos of the rapper as well. In one of the videos, Drizzy is seen flaunting his private jet, the Boeing 767, called Air Drake.
According to Globe Air, the aircraft is valued at $185 million and was gifted to the rapper through a partnership with Cargojet in 2019.
