Drake’s ‘Signs’

-

From dropping surprise mixtapes online to unveiling new music on his Beats 1 OVO Sound radio show, Drake has all but abandoned the traditiona­l album release. His new track, Signs, was no different, with the rapper trying out a new platform for sharing his latest project: a fashion show. In partnershi­p with Louis Vuitton, Signs’ world premiere came about halfway through the design house’s Paris Fashion Week menswear show, the first time Drake has used a runway to share new music. Fittingly, the track sounds like the kind of the genericall­y pretty background music that typically soundtrack­s fashion shows, continuing Drizzy’s world-music infatuatio­n, with its Afrobeat stomp.
