And they’re harsh and our summers are hot and it’s a very unique place, you start to value your days more when seven months of them are spent in ice cold…it creates a different type of atmosphere, a different sound in the music, a different type of person even.

It's to show you the two extreme moods we have, because we’re very grateful for our summers but we also make our winters work. 'What I used to tie it all together is winter to summer then back to winter again. Would like to see Drake explore this genre more, if only so we get more dad dancing. We’re getting more up-tempo now, the keys stabs from Kyla’s ‘Do You Mind’ reworked into afrobeat are irresistible, as is that machine gun volley. But we already knew that, Controlla having leaked recently. Indeed, such a feel good song that sounds like 'Hotline Bling’s twin. Friend who’s also listening somewhere right now: ‘man i fucking love controlla, that beat gets me so happy’.
