Drake appears to have quietly updated songs on his recently released Certified Lover Boy, though it seems that only Apple Music’s version of the album has been changed.

A fan was the first to spot the subtle changes and shared their findings to the hip-hop content forum KTT2 on Wednesday, September 22. On “Knife Talk” featuring 21 Savage and Project Pat, the fan wrote that there were “various mix changes” on bass and vocals, as well a difference in the transition of the song’s outro.

Fans also said that mix changes were applied to the vocals of “IMY2.” Kid Cudi, who has a guest appearance on the track, has an entirely new line, plus additional ad-libs. Meanwhile, the beat on “You Only Live Twice” now fades out instead of bluntly cutting off.

It’s unclear if these changes apply across streaming platforms, as one user reported that the mixes do not appear on Spotify‘s version of CLB.

Drake has not yet commented on the apparent changes.

In other music news, a Toronto university will soon offer a course on Drake and The Weeknd.
