Meanwhile, Drake was not featured on the tracklist, and NAV didn’t shy away to respond. “Drake’s an amazing person. We hang out all the time in Toronto. We did a song,” he shared while chatting with the Full Send Podcast. “I feel like, you know, we could’ve done a better song and the timeframe was just, you know, not good. It didn’t work out.”
