apper Drake is dropping double album Scorpion at midnight on June 29, and the recently shared setlist reveals features from not only Jay-Z and Ty Dolla $ign, but deceased artists Static Major and Michael Jackson.
The B Side’s 10th track, titled “Don’t Matter to Me” is a previously unreleased Michael Jackson track that Drake raps and sings over, according to a report from TMZ. “The format is similar to the 2014 song, ‘Love Never Felt So Good’ […] which was a Jackson tune turned into a duet with Justin Timberlake,” wrote TMZ.
Avonti Major, Static Major’s widow, took to Instagram to announce the feature to her followers. “DRAKE X STATIC” appears in the video, which is captioned “Dear Haters.. I have so much more for you to be mad at, so be patient☝🏾.. Stay tuned😉...”
