Aubrey "Drake" Graham made a pretty lofty promise to release 4-6 new tracks online before year's end; not unlike the four-song combo-pack released online nearly three months ahead of his latest album,
Nothing Was The Same. The first in a series that's since been effectively dubbed
New Year's Eve Anthems,
"We Made It" is in fact a
Soulja Boy freestyle remix, with a
Kenny Powers-led intro: "The only thing I'm seeing I'd like to put an amend on... perhaps a little more room here for the fixinsssss!" It previously appeared on
Soulja Boy's recent
The King mixtape, sans
Drake's added lyrical assist. Thematically,
"We Made It" has a similar underlying tone to
"Started from The Bottom" and
Drake's unhinged fierce delivery seems to be cut from the same cloth as his former
"Versace" remix. "
Drake probably has almost an album's-worth of stuff recorded that he could put out at any time,"
OVO Sound in-house producer
Nineteen85 told
Vibe back in November. "Songs that basically are ready to go. And I'm not talking about throw-away records. I'm talking about finished songs that most artists would beg to have," he continued; likely alluding to non-album tracks like
"Trophies," which should see a web-release any day now, as well as that long-rumored eight swordsmen-assisted
"Wu-Tang Forever" mega-remix.
