Drake decided to not release his latest single, ‘Splash Brothers’ over Astroworld strategy

The recent Astroworld tragedy has shaken the entire music industry all over the world. Many artists have expressed their grief in different ways. Singer-songwriter Drake has decided to postpone the release of his upcoming single featuring French Montana to pay respect to the victims of Astroworld. Variety reports that the track, ‘Splash Brothers’ was supposed to be a part of Montana’s fourth studio album, ‘They Got Amnesia’, which was to be released on November 19th. Now that the release of the track has been halted, it is more likely to appear on the deluxe version of the album. It has also been taken down from different streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and others.

This is not the first time the two musicians have collaborated. They have teamed up quite a few times before over the years. Some of their biggest hits are ‘Stay Schemin’, ‘No shopping’, ‘Pop That’, and ‘No Stylist’.

Drake was also part of Travis Scott’s Astroworld set at the end as a special guest. He was also named in many lawsuits after the festival that caused the death of 10 people and injury to many. The lawsuit of $750 million has been filed by the lawyers of 125 victims at Astroworld festival.

Drake expressed his grief on the tragedy on social media saying, ‘I’ve spent the past few days trying to wrap my head around this devastating tragedy… My heart is broken for the families and friends of those who lost their lives and for anyone suffering.’

Scott himself reacted immediately after the tragedy occurred saying that he was totally devastated by the event of the concert. He sent his prayers to the families of those who died and got injured during the Astroworld festival. He further said that he offers his full support to the Houston PD that has been investigating the tragic event.

He thanked Houston PD, Fire Department, and NRG Park for their immediate response and help. He ended the post by saying, ‘Love You All’.
