“That’s not Drake,” lead singer Tom Higgenson said in shock.
“It’s crazy that everybody thinks that it’s real. It seems like it’s very obvious (referring to A.I). I don’t know, but it’s cool, whatever,” he added.
“There’s no f*****g way!” bassist Mike Retondo said.
Despite claims that the track used artificial intelligence (AI) for Drake’s verses, the Toronto rapper actually confirmed it was him on Instagram, when he posted a story of the cover with the caption, “@snowd4y wake up the city.”
Under the comments, fans say the band is very clearly disappointed with the song.
“He is so disappointed that he doesn’t want to believe it’s Drake,” one TikTok user said.
“Tell them they cannot release it,” another user said.
“This is 100% real and this is the Canadian Toronto accent, enjoy,” another user commented.
