Drake has surprised fans with the release of the video for his standout track “No Face,” from his recent project 100 Gigs. The menacing black-and-white video, filmed at Scarborough Town Centre mall in Toronto, showcases Drake and his OVO crew taking over the shopping center in dramatic fashion.
In the clip, Drake and his team don OVO owl hoodies as they cruise through the mall in Cadillac Escalades and ride OVO-branded quad bikes. Directed by Theo Skudra, who frequently collaborates with Drake on projects like “First Person Shooter” and “Family Matters,” the video has created quite a buzz despite being available only on Instagram and not featuring the full length of the song, which lasts just over a minute.
Released in August through Drake’s burner Instagram account before making its way to streaming platforms, “No Face” features bold and defiant lyrics, especially in the wake of his well-documented feud with Kendrick Lamar. On the track, he alludes to his disputes with various artists, including former collaborators Future, The Weeknd, and A$AP Rocky. One notable line from the song challenges his critics: “N-ggas got lit off the features I skated on / I gotta know, I gotta know / How you get lit off the n-gga you hatin’ on?”
Despite the competitive nature of the hip-hop industry, it appears that Drake has managed to find humor in the situation. During a discussion on The Relentless Diaries Podcast, podcaster Mal, who is close with Drake, revealed that the rapper laughed at one particular lyric from Kendrick’s diss track “Not Like Us.” The line, referencing “the other vaginal option,” amused Drake, leading to a light-hearted conversation about the complexities of the beef.
