Drake follows in Justin Biebers footsteps by singing in Spanish on new track MIA

Despacito, as we all know, was quite possibly the biggest song of 2017, with its massive global success having been bolstered by Justin Biebers Spanish-spoken remix.

Clearly the pull of huge English-speaking artists dabbling in a bit of Español results in big, big numbers these days – and it now seems that Drake wants a piece of that particularly succulent pie.

The Toronto rapper has contributed Spanish-spoken vocal parts to Bad Bunnys new single MIA, which is finally out today (12 October).

The track sees Drake and Bad Bunny – who enjoyed a big hit with Cardi B this year on I Like It – going back-and-forth on its melodic hook, with the pair singing: Tell them youre mine, mine / You know youre mine, mine / Youve said it yourself / When we were doing it.

Or, if youre a Spanish speaker: Dile que tú eres mía, mía / Tú sabe que eres mía, mía / Tú misma lo decías / Cuando yo te lo hacía.

Spicy.

Drake seems very at home when speaking the language – so its little surprise to learn that this isnt the stars first foray into flexing a bit of Spanish in a song.

Back in 2014, he showcased his strong handle on the lingo with a feature on the Romeo Santos track Odio.

Could a full Spanish-spoken album of Drake ballads follow in the near future? Wonder what Gods plan is in Spanish…
