While we still wait on Drake‘s Views From The 6, which has a rumored April release date, two songs from Drizzy have been leaked onto the Internet. The first song, “These Days,” is a cover of Jackson Browne song of the same name, while the second, “Controlla,” features Popcaan, whose voice dominated the radio last summer on Jamie xx and Young Thug’s “I Know There’s Gonna Be (Good Times).”

These clearly sound like demos, and I doubt we’ll see finished versions of them — especially now that they’ve leaked. “These Days” sounds a bit like something Drake would’ve tackled in the Take Care days, and “Controlla” seems like Drake saw the success of “Work” and wanted to reciprocate that in some sort of way.

Listen to both songs below, and stay tuned for update from View From The 6.

UPDATE: Drake’s Jackson Browne cover is actually the stand-alone version of his collaboration with Babeo Baggins, which you can listen to here.
