\n\tOn Friday (Feb. 14), Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR entered Valentine\u2019s Day with stealthy intentions as they delivered their long-awaited collaborative album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U<\/em>.<\/p>\n \n\tFor 21 songs, the OVO tandem scripts entrancing songs about love, heartbreak and lust. Whether they tag-team on records (\u201cSOMEBODY LIKE YOU\u201d) or welcome newcomers like Pim to grab the wheel (\u201cPIMMIE\u2019s DILEMMA\u201d), it\u2019s clear that the Toronto showstoppers are looking to play spoilers for thriving relationships in 2025 during Valentine\u2019s Day weekend.<\/p>\n \n\tAs for Drake, all eyes are on him after his lyrical adversary, Kendrick Lamar, steamrolled his way to five Grammy wins for his scathing diss track \u201cNot Like Us\u201d and took yet another victory lap during his record-breaking Super Bowl Halftime Show performance. Though $exy $ongs<\/em> is a love-laden effort, Drake does have choice words not only for his PG Lang foe but also for his long-time critic, Joe Budden. Despite his menacing barbs, Drake\u2019s attention remains primarily on the ladies throughout the 74-minute effort.<\/p>\n \n\tFor PND, who\u2019s coming off arguably his best album last year with PND4<\/em>, he continues his hot streak as an R&B stalwart. He doesn\u2019t only complement Drake as a formidable co-pilot, but when given the keys, is a cerebral lead artist, as proven on \u201cDEEPER.\u201d Time will tell if Drizzy can land his 14th No. 1 album with his newest effort. <\/p>\n \n\tJoin Billboard<\/em> as we recap the best (and less-best) songs on Drake and PND\u2019s $OME $EXY $ONGS 4 U<\/em>, and see if the Toronto Boys live up to the occasion on this R&B-centric album.<\/p>\n
