On the song, Drake, 33, rhymes about the feud he had with The Weeknd as well as others. “OVOXO link up, mandem drink up, me in the drillers/Hawk and Stix and Cash and Baka, Gucci, P, and Gilla/And the boy that sound like he sang on Thriller/You know that’s been my n***a, yeah/We just had to fix things, family, 6 tings, we can’t split up,” Drake raps over the beat, which was produced by AXL Beats, according to Complex.

The track, a mixtape collaboration between Oliver El-Khatib of OVO and Kuumba International, is featured on the newly released El-Kuumba Tape Vol. 1. The video for the song was directed by Theo Skudra and Drake and his crew are seen at a ski resort, skiing, hitting up snowmobiles and having their own winter wonderland.
Hawk Marley, Stix, and Cash are down with XO and Baka Not Nice, Preme and Gilla are affiliated with Reps Up and OVO, reported Complex.
The song’s title belies its calm music video shots during the ski vacation. The video includes a bonfire and a skidoo, and Drake looks relaxed and chill – anything but at “war.”
He even concludes the song by rapping, “Everyone I know has code names, anyone I’m beefin’ with is a no name/N***as can’t even win home games/They just gotta fall in line like Soul Train.”
