Drake - What's Next [MUSIC VIDEO]
Drake has dropped the Scary Hours 2 EP, as promised.
It’s three songs "What’s Next", "Wants and Needs" featuring Lil Baby, & "Lemon Pepper Freestyle" featuring Rick Ross. The lead off song "What’s Next" also got a new music video (see above) directed by Theo Skudra that can easily double as the dopest Toronto Tourism advert ever.
Last night was also a relaunch of OVO Sound Radio—formerly an Apple Music Radio show that’s now on SiriusXM—on a new 24-hour Sirius channel SOUND 42.
A new album from Drake called Certified Lover Boy is expected for release some time this year. Tonight on OVO Sound, he offered an update without giving a specific release date. “CLB is currently being cheffed in every way possible,” he said, noting that he’s been working with his regular collaborators Noel Cadastre and Noah “40” Shebib. “I don’t have an exact date, but it’s in the pot and it’s coming soon.” The record was initially set for January 2021, but it was postponed after Drake sustained a knee injury.
The new EP follows the first Scary Hours EP in 2018, which featured “God’s Plan” and “Diplomatic Immunity.” The A-side was later released on Drake’s album Scorpion.

Detroit Piston Owner Tom Gores Prison Telecom Business Tarnishes The NBA [PETITION]
An advocacy group took out a full-page advertisement in Sunday's New York Times, calling on the NBA and 30 of its owners to force Detroit Pistons owner Tom Gores to sell his team because of his ownership of a prison telecom company.
"If Black Lives Matter, what are you doing about Detroit Pistons owner Tom Gores?" the advertisement read.
The advertisement refers readers to http://pistonsdeservebetter.com that says how Gores' ownership of Securus Technologies, which his Beverly Hills-based private equity firm Platinum Equity purchased in 2017, "undermines [the NBA's] sincerity" about its stance on social and racial justice issues. Securus helps to set the pricing for phone calls for jailed inmates in hundreds of counties nationwide, in some cases charging more than $14 for a 15-minute call.

Cannabis May Reduce Deadly COVID-19 Symptoms [MEDICINE]
Researchers in Canada have conducted a study suggesting that novel Cannabis sativaextracts may decrease levels of the host cell receptor that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) uses to gain viral entry to target tissues.
“If these results are further confirmed, these high-CBD cannabis extracts can be used to develop prevention strategies directed at lowering ACE2 levels in high-risk gateway tissues,” they write.
“The extracts of our most successful novel high-CBD C. sativa lines, pending further investigation, may become a useful and safe addition to the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 as an adjunct therapy,” concludes the team.
