HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Drake is remaining cool even though his highly anticipated debut album, Thank Me Later, managed to leak Tuesday on the Internet.
"I gave away free music for years so we're good over here," the Canadian crooner wrote on his Twitter page. "Just allow it to be the soundtrack to your summer and ENJOY!"
Last month, Drake proved that love can come at a price with the release of his "Find Your Love" music video. Directed by Anthony Mandler, the video follows Drake as he attempts to be with the woman of his dreams. The only problem is, she happens to be the boss' lady. Drake's on-screen love interest is played by model Maliah Michel, while the gang leader is portrayed by reggae star Mavado. The six-minute video was shot in Jamaica, an experience Drake told MTV he isn't likely to forget anytime soon.
"We went to Kingston," the 23-year-old singer explained. "We went to this 'hood. They call it the 'gully' side. It's bad out there, real bad. They had 'Young Money' sprayed on the gates, 'Drake and Wayne,' 'cause I came to shoot the video out there. I'm talking about you drive by people's homes, they had 'Drake,' 'Young Money,' 'Drake, Welcome Here,' 'Drake We Love You' — crazy sh--, man. It was so crazy. This dude was like, 'Original Weezy tha God! You tha boss! Weezy tha God!' It's crazy. They love us, 'cause we show love out there."
The Kanye West-produced "Find Your Love" is the second single from Drake's debut release, which drops on June 15.
