Yeat shares Drake cover

The rapper premiered the song during his Coachella debut last month

Coming off his first-ever Coachella performance, multi-platinum rap innovator Yeat has shared his cover of Drake’s classic track “Feel No Ways” — out now via Lyfestyle Corporation/Field Trip/Capitol Records. “Feël No Wayz (Yeat Mix)” marks his third release of the year, following standout single “The Bell” and a feature on “Work” with Anyma, the solo project of Matteo Milleri from the electronic duo Tale of Us.

First previewed during his Sahara Stage set at Coachella Weekend 1 — where a 50-foot golden bell towered over the crowd in homage to his breakout hit “Gët Busy” — Yeat’s extraterrestrial, autotune-drenched rendition of the Drake cult classic quickly became an internet-breaking moment. In the days leading up to the release, billboards popped up around Toronto with a text from Drake that read, “YOUNG TWIZZZZZY FEEL A WAY,” teasing the remix and fueling endless internet discourse.

The release marks a rare moment of homage between two generations of rap visionaries. Yeat and Drake’s collaborative history includes standout tracks like “As We Speak” and “IDGAF,” with the latter debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 1 on the Global 200, and amassing over one billion streams to date. Drake has long been a vocal supporter of Yeat’s futuristic sound and boundary-pushing vision, first publicly connecting with the rising star in 2021 following the release of Yeat’s fourth album Up 2 Më. With “Feël No Ways (Yeat Mix),” Yeat reimagines a modern classic through his distinct sonic lens, paying tribute from one visionary to another.

Yeat’s last project, the No. 1 Billboard charting Lyfestyle, kicked off this summer when Yeat hinted at new music during his special three-show North American run across New York, Los Angeles, and Portland. With the release of Lyfestyle, Yeat hit a massive career milestone, earning his first-ever No. 1 album on the Billboard 200. Within its first week of release, the 22-track project sold 89K equivalent album units –– the rap phenomenon’s highest first week sales to date. This achievement also marked Yeat’s fifth top 10 debut in under three years with 2022’s Lyfë hitting No. 10, 2022’s 2 Alivë at No. 6, 2023’s AftërLyfe at No. 4, 2024’s 2093 at No. 2, and now Lyfestyle.

Lyfestyle was released initially on October 18th, boasting features from Lil Durk, Don Toliver, Kodak Black, and more. Most recently, Yeat embarked on an international tour across the EU & UK –– an explosive run through nine cities which included his first ever headlining show in London.
