recording so far gone at 15 Fort York and I was living in the blue basement on Coulson Avenue. I began to remember the way certain places and people made me feel, and it became so apparent what the content of this
album needed to be. I tried my best to make the soundtrack to our lives in this city…I hope I made you all proud. To my mom, I am so happy to see you as this new healthy woman. You look even more beautiful when you smile,
so keeping you happy will always be the mission. To my Uncle Steve, firstly thank you for throwing that little barbeque for me over the summer. It may have only been 6 of us there but it meant the world to me. I hope you hear the
words in Look What You’ve Done and you truly understand what you brought to my life…this would have been impossible without you. To my Bubi, I’m so glad you are still here to witness another chapter of my life…I love you. To
my brother 40, every single time we embark on these journeys together in the back of my mind I wonder if one of us will run out of ideas forcing us to just call it a day and say “hey man great run”…that never happens. You are the
most talented, hard working, creative individual I have ever met. Go spend 2 weeks on an island or something…and send Teddy somewhere too. You deserve it. To my brother Oliver, I am so proud of what we’ve done together.
It’s amazing to watch you evolve and it’s an honor to now have you as one of my managers. To my whole team, CJ, Niko, Courtne, Chubbs, Spoon, Jordan, Jug, and Lauren, thank you for lightening the load and for allowing me
to complete all that I need too to keep us on the rise. To my managers Tez and Gee, thank you for this chance, to not only achieve my dreams but to surpass them. You are two good men in a business of few good men. To my
lawyer Chris Taylor, thank you for taking me on as a client and for solely focusing on protecting me and ensuring I am always in the clear. To my business manager David Bolno, thank you for pulling my life together for me and
putting me in a position where I can now begin to build my empire. Also, thanks for bearing such a striking resemblance to Ben Affleck…that always comforts me. To Future, thanks for always being there when I need a very intelligent
and valid opinion. To Cyrus, thank you for your loyalty and guidance as a friend during my entire career. To Chase N Cashe, thank you for being my life A&R and for always wanting to see me succeed and look and sound the
best I possibly can. To Hush, thank you for always caring about the words as much as I do…you are my brother for life. To Al Branch, thanks for your hard work yet again. To Robert Gibbs, thank you for bringing me to the people
and allowing me to perform for them time and time again. Chris Chambers and Sarah Cunningham and everybody at the Chambers Group thank you so much for connecting me with the world. To Jill and everybody at WME I am
looking forward to our new partnership. Thank you to Catherine at BMI for always showing love and support. Thank you to Big Jon at EMI, you are a dear friend and you saved my life…my family and I thank you so much for that.
To everyone involved in the making of this album I thank you for your patience. I had so much I wanted to do for this record and I was a bit scattered at times so thank you for riding with me and being kind. To 40, I’ve said it all but I
will say it again you are the true leader of this whole thing…without you there is no Drake at all. To Abel, meeting you changed my life and whether you realize it or not you are responsible for how hard I went to make this album one to
remember. You are a gifted soul and you have given the world something extremely special. I am looking forward to the future with you and I am honored to call you a brother. To T Minus, I am so proud to see you achieve what you have
in the last year…they have no idea what’s in store. Thank you for your consistency and your work ethic. To Boi 1da, I am very glad that we still always find a way. I could never have a project pass without having my brother bless it…thank
you for your contributions. Weezy and Stunna you already know what it is...I’m here for life. Nicki Minaj I’m so proud of you…I love you so funckin much. Rozay you know you’re my brother and one of my favorite people to make music with.
Everything we do is something they love and I hope there’s many more to come…YOLO. To Kendrick Lamar, thank you for being so honest in your music and bringing a special piece to the album and coming on tour and just being one
of the kindest realest people I’ve ever met. Chase N Cashe I am so glad we got not only a song together, but a song that will remain one of the truest I have ever recorded…thank you. Doc and Illangelo thank you. Rihanna…dun know.
Jamie XX you are making music that I’ve never imagined was possible and I thank you for letting me be a part of it. Gonzales thanks for sharing your gift. Divine Brown thank you for lending your angelic voice to our compositions. Adrian X
and Wade O, thank you for giving your sonic magic to the kid. Chantal thank you for delivering such a powerful performance and setting the mood for the entire album. Noel and Rueben, thank you for being key elements in us getting this
whole thing completed. Bun B, thank you for being a King. Andre 3000 that song was something I dreamed about for a long time…thank you. RIP Static Major and thank you to Avonti for making that incredible piece happen for us…a
little old school playa never hurt. Just Blaze, thanks for letting me come through that night and playing me the perfect beat. Stevie Wonder, thank you for being everything that you are and sharing your wisdom, talent, and jokes with me
throughout the creation of this album. Gadjet thank you for making this shit sound so good, you are truly a legend. Gordo and Les thank you as well for all your help. Thanks to OG RON C for never slopping my chops…gizzle. Thanks to
Metalworks, Gil, and all the staff and students who support our 24 hr sessions. Thanks to Tremendous Chinese Food and the guy across the parking lot that makes the steak sandwiches for us once in a while…you are a good sandwich maker.
Thanks to Habitual Training and Jonny Roxx. Thanks to Marvins Room. Thanks to Sterling Road Studios. Thanks to XM The Joint for always giving me vibes on the way to the studio. Thanks to Fifa 11/12 and Real Madrid for always showing
people who the king of the pitch is. Thanks to Belly and Cash for the bag of inspiration. Thanks to anyone that gave me any amount of their time whether they made the album or not…it is all a process so without you this would not be.
Thanks to BAMN Productions, Mazin, Al, Jonny, Theo, and the whole crew for being involved and working so last minute to make incredible visuals. Thank you to Hyghly, Lamar, and Drop for making my whole shit iconic as fuck.
To the whole XO gang you awlready know we are a family…OVOXO. Thanks to Costas and Rola for always fobbing me up to my apartment cause I always forget my fob. Thanks to Angelo for allowing us to entertain
