Drake doesn’t miss a beat.
The Toronto rapper’s new track, “What Did I Miss?” arrives at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the Billboard Canadian Hot 100, dated July 19. This debut marks his whopping 74th Top 10 hit in his home country.
On the track, Drake addresses what happened amidst and in the aftermath of his fallout with fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar, alluding to his public perception and to former friends who seemed to turn their backs.
“I don’t give a f– if you love me/ I don’t give a f— if you like me/ Askin’ me ‘How did it feel?’/ Can’t say it didn’t surprise me,” says the 6ix god, rapping an introspective chorus with one question on repeat: “What did I miss?”

While it’s an incredible feat to be at No. 2, Drizzy had some choice words for Alex Warren, whose track “Ordinary” earned No. 1 for its sixth week in the U.S. and 14th week in Canada, blocking the former from going for gold.
“Suppressor on the 1 spot,” Drake wrote on his Instagram Story yesterday (July 14), sharing a screenshot of the Hot 100 songs chart. “I’m taking that soon don’t worry one song or another. Rule changes and all."(Warren later responded by dancing to Drakes "Nokia" on his Instagram Story)
Drake released “What Did I Miss?” mere days before his three-day headlining stint at 2025’s Wireless Festival, setting up for a potential comeback era. On the third and final night, he teased a new single with “On the Radar Freestyle” collaborator Central Cee that’s set to drop this Friday, July 18. He's been teasing an upcoming album called Iceman.
Drizzy has another song on the chart, with the infectious hit “Nokia” sitting at No. 28 in its 21st week on the chart.
Elsewhere on the chart, country singer Zach Bryan has two new entries. "River Washed Hair" enters at No. 60, followed by “Streets of London” at No.80. The two tracks are part of Bryan’s new album, Streets of London, which has yet to be released. While the former deals with seeking closure after a relationship, the latter unpacks a genuine feeling of being homesick.
