Background
editOn August 6, through a private Instagram page, Drake released 100 gigabytes of data, consisting of behind-the-scenes clips, tour rehearsals, and studio footage, including the three tracks on the EP on the Instagram page, alongside a website for its sole purpose.[3][4] Upon the release of the tracks, 21 Savage's verse on "It's Up" was thought to contain disses towards Kendrick Lamar amidst the Drake–Kendrick Lamar feud, however, the rumours were later denounced by Savage's manager.[5]
On August 23, 2024, through the same Instagram, Drake released three new tracks, "Circadian Rhythm", "SOD", previously featuring Lil Yachty, and "No Face", featuring Playboi Carti, who was removed from the streaming version of the track.[6] Due to the samples in "Blue Green Red" not being cleared, it was later removed from streaming services and replaced with "Circadian Rhythm", while "No Face" was released later as a bonus track.[7][8]
