Drake’s new song has a Bitcoin connection
Drake has included a Bitcoin (BTC) reference in his recently released song, “What Did I Miss?” The popular hip-hop artist’s new song directly incorporates Bitcoin, the widely recognised cryptocurrency, into a cultural conversation, 16 years after its creation. “What Did I Miss” premiered during a YouTube stream titled “ICEMAN EPISODE ONE,” which features Drake playing a worker on his lunch break. The song explores themes of betrayal, following Drake’s 2024 dispute with Kendrick Lamar. Drake likens the shifting loyalties he addresses in the track to the unpredictable nature of Bitcoin, giving the digital asset a prominent reference. The reference to Bitcoin and its volatility appears in the first verse of the song. Drake has previously engaged with Bitcoin, having bet $1 million in the cryptocurrency on the outcome of the 2022 Super Bowl.
