Drake and Camila Cabello collaborated on new music while in Turks & Caicos.
Camila Cabello revealed in a recent Billboard interview that Drake will appear twice on her upcoming album, C,XOXO. Reflecting on their time together, she recounted working on music with Drake during their trip to Turks & Caicos. Footage of them jet skiing went viral on social media, sparking dating rumors.
“He’s the fcking GOAT, so it felt like shooting for the stars,” she said, describing how she initially reached out to him on Instagram. “I showed him the album when I felt comfortable enough and he really liked it. [The feature] came out of a nontransactional place. He had this idea of a song called ‘Hot Uptown,’ and it just felt like I was in the city. I was in Miami.” She continued, “He wanted to do one more thing for the album. Why does he have his own song? Because selfishly, I just want to hear Drake on my own album … I love that for me — it’s like that rebellious mood. Who says I can’t do that? It’s Drake talking his sht.”
Cabello previously mentioned the trip with Drake on the Call Her Daddy podcast, as noted by AllHipHop. “I love him so much and I really listened to him a lot during my writing process for my album,” she said. “And I really felt like he would like my album.”
Cabello has been promoting the new album for several months. Other collaborators include Playboi Carti, Lil Nas X, and the City Girls. C,XOXO is set to release on June 28. Stay tuned for more updates on Camila Cabello and Drake on HotNewHipHop.
