Drake used a new song to send a message to his fans about Gaza.
“Pray for Gaza,” the rapper says in an unreleased track previewed during his FOMO film stream yesterday.
Drake has not elaborated on the lyric, but he was among the celebrities who signed the Artists4Ceasefire letter in 2023. The campaign called for a ceasefire, humanitarian assistance for civilians, and the release of hostages. He has not said whether the song will appear on a future project or when he will release the full track.

Drizzy has, at times, been called out for his non-political approach, but he is happy to let his fans know where he stands on the Israel-Gaza war.
Last week, rapper Macklemore was dropped from upcoming U.S. dates on Ed Sheeran’s tour after declaring “Free Palestine” during a performance at MetLife Stadium. After he was booted from the tour, all of Sheeran’s opening acts and backup band quit, leaving his tour in jeopardy.
Other stars have also publicly supported ceasefire efforts or humanitarian aid for Palestinians, including Billie Eilish, Bella Hadid, Dua Lipa, Ariana Grande, Andrew Garfield and Cate Blanchett.
