Adin Ross is someone who has completely taken the streaming world by storm over the last few years. Overall, he is one of the biggest streamers out there. Consequently, he has been able to collaborate with some truly massive artists. There are plenty of artists within hip-hop who rock with him, including Drake. While Drizzy has not yet done a stream with Adin, he does send him messages from time to time. In fact, he seemingly got a preview for a new song with Drake and Lil Durk.

The song is supposedly called "Discontinuing Wokhardt." Based on the lyrics, they appear to be an anthem on quitting lean addiction. Drake has allegedly had issues with the drug in the past. Meanwhile, Adin Ross has been very open about the fact that he struggles with lean addiction. While listening to the song, Adin was actually confused as to why he, in particular, was given this opportunity. However, he eventually put two and two together.

Adin Ross Questions The Meaning Of It All

“Wait, I just realized — why’d they have me preview that? Is it because I was on lean? I’m not on lean no more. And how does The Boy know about — yeah, nah, he’s tapped in. Damn, that was hard," Ross said. For now, it remains to be seen whether or not this Drake and Durk song will come out anytime soon. If it does, we're sure fans will be extremely tapped in. Only time will tell what Drizzy does next.

Let us know what you think of this latest song preview, in the comments section down below. Do you think Durk and Drake have a hit with this one?

English Teacher‘s debut album ‘This Could Be Texas‘ has re-entered the UK Top 40 following their Mercury Prize win.

The Leeds four-piece recently snagged the prestigious music prize at the ceremony held earlier this month at Abbey Road Studios.

They warded off competition from the likes of Charli XCX, CMAT, Ghetts, The Last Dinner Party, Corinne Bailey Rae, Beth Gibbons, Barry Can’t Swim and more with their debut album, ‘This Could Be Texas’.

Now, UK record labels association the BPI has reported an increased demand for the record. The BPI (which also organises the Mercury Prize) claimed that ‘This Could Be Texas’ gained a 1,073 per cent increase in sales in the week after the ceremony – its best chart performance since it was released in April this year.

Other albums by Mercury Prize nominees BERWYN, Corinne Bailey Rae and corto.alto also saw sales increases of over 100 per cent.

NME spoke to the band shortly after their win, where they said they would “continue to be honest” about their struggles as a band.

“It was never a conscious [choice] to be like ‘We’re going to be one of those bands that does that’,” frontwoman Lily Fontaine explained. “It’s just that when we get asked questions about those things, we’re always going to be honest. If we continue to be put in situations where we’re asked about that, we will continue to be honest about it.”

NME also spoke to the band for The Cover, where they hinted at their debut album and what was to come: “I feel like the next set of songs will truly reflect where we are now,” guitarist Lewis Whiting shared. “We don’t want to sit within one sound; there’s some huge-sounding ballads coming up. We’ve got a point to prove.”

We also reviewed their debut, awarding it a full five stars: “What you have in ‘This Could Be Texas’ is everything you want from a debut; a truly original effort from start to finish, an adventure in sound and words, and a landmark statement. Poised for big things? Who knows if this industry even allows that anymore. Here are a band already dealing in brilliance, though – who dare to dream and have it pay off.

“Not everyone gets to go to space, but at least English Teacher make it a damn site more interesting being stuck down here.”
