The music world has been awaiting this very highly anticipated collaboration and it’s now here! Tottenham’s Headie One join’s forces with Drake for new track ‘Only You Freestyle,’ solidifying the Grammy Award winner’s ongoing interest to align with the UK drill music scene.

Coming together organically, Drake reached out to the North London native via Instagram, expressing his desire for the pair to jump on a track together. Produced by M1 On The Beat, this is a huge credit for the young producer, who’s been well in demand across the evolvement of drill within the UK.

Some say Drake is a culture vulture, others would coin this as ‘great marketing’ for the OVO camp but there’s simply no denying, one of the worlds most successful rappers is collaborating with one of the UK’s most successful UK drill acts and it does makes sense. “I had to go hard, especially on a track with one of the best drill artists in the world...Scratch that - the best drill artist in the world,” claims Drake himself.

With over 1M YouTube views amassed in 12 hours alone, this is probably going to be the collaboration of the year. Check out the official video for ‘Only You Freestyle’ below and you can also stream the track on Spotify.
