Not one to just be cooped up, Drake decided to give us a visual for his newest single ‘Tootsie Slide.’ The video is directed by Theo Skudra and shows The Boy walking through random rooms in his crib while wearing a Nike balaclava and showcasing what seems to be an internet dance craze in the making.

Creators are going to create no matter the circumstance. More musicians are finding different forms of being relevant and staying in the mix despite the COVID-19 fiasco keeping them from either performing or just being out in general.

Floating” enlists photographer Christian Weber as he paints the picture of a white bird soaring through a skyline filled with clouds. Thundercat’s presence is felt on this track as well, offering production and back up vocals.
