Drake Gets Grimey With Mysterious New Bars

It's no secret that Drake has been itching to get back in the booth, having already revealed his new album is in the works. In fact, we might have received a recent hint at a potential sonic direction, after Virgil Abloh previewed a smooth collaboration between Drizzy and Swae Lee during a Coachella set. Now, Drake has once again fuelled speculation with a cryptic Instagram post, in which he dons a dapper ensemble while sharing fragments of unidentified lyrics.

"Mum said I’m handsome life still ugly uh 
Trust me 
Said it wasn’t us when she heard us on radio
But she said must be..."

Some have already deduced through the use of "mum" that Drake will once again be looking to the Grime genre for inspiration, though it does remain unconfirmed. Still, given that Drizzy has been spending time overseas during his Assassination Vacation tour, it wouldn't be surprising to see him reverting to a sound once dabbled on More Life. Perhaps, given the reception with which Scorpion was might, it would be nice to see Drake come through with some more "fire in the booth."
