Explore See latest videos, charts and news Produced by Noah “40” Shebib and featuring background vocals from Trey Songz, “Hate Sleeping Alone” was originally made exclusively available as a bonus track on Take Care‘s digital edition alongside the Lil Wayne-assisted “The Motto.” Fans are noticeably hyped judging by the comments on YouTube. “This song is the only reason I’ve been using Apple Music for the past five years,” one fan wrote. “Most underrated song in drakes discography I used to pray for times like this,” while another added, “Let’s go, this finally released on Spotify,” in all caps. The song features the Toronto rapper’s signature style from that era as he seamlessly switches from rapping to singing while lamenting about having to sleep alone over 40’s moody production. “I say I’d rather be with you, but you are not around,” Drake sings on the chorus. “So I’ma call somebody up and see if they’d be down/ ‘Cause I hate sleepin’ alone, I hate sleepin’ alone.” Speaking of his Take Care era, Drake recently found himself singing along to the title track — which featured Rihanna and went top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 — on a Kick livestream. He told fans that he’ll probably never perform that song again. “This the only performance you’re getting of this song probably, but s–t, welcome to Trainwreckstv, baby,” he said to the chat.
