Drake’s new album will be an Apple Music exclusive for the first week.
‘Views From The 6’ is set for release on April 29th, but for the first seven days it will only be available through Apple’s streaming platform. From 6th May, it will then be able to download and stream elsewhere.
The news is hardly a surprise – in 2015 Drake signed a reported £13m deal with Apple, since when he’s hosted a monthly show on Beats 1, and debuted his ‘What A Time To Be Alive mixtape with Future via the platform. ‘Jumpman’, taken from that release, was recently featured in an Apple Music ad featuring Taylor Swift.
