Drake — What’s Next

A five-year-old Scary Hours 2 single is broadly charting again, appearing on 144 country and platform charts today, riding the wake of Drake's recent triple-album maneuver. In May, he released Iceman, Habibti, and Maid of Honour simultaneously, all three topping the Billboard 200 in what Music Ally framed as a streams-over-acclaim strategy — a deluge that has pulled the back catalog up alongside the new material. What's Next was the lead from the 2021 EP and debuted at number one, his eighth US Hot 100 chart-topper, per Wikipedia. Its off-kilter intro cadence and the chorus salvaged from an unfinished Young Thug collaboration mark it as a transitional cut — a warm-up, in Drake's own framing. Catalog lift of this scale typically tracks a saturation rollout rather than the older song itself.
