Drake has dropped off his first new offering of 2025. Revealed in the middle of a 20-minute Conductor Williams latest “Signature Blends” YouTube video, The Boy has offered up what Genius calls “Fighting Irish,” a three-minute freestyle.

While it’s unclear when the new track was actually written, what we do know is that within minutes, Williams’ Instagram post directing fans to the video was taken down.

“The world fell in love with the gimmicks, even my brothers got tickets / Seemed like they loved every minute, just know this sh*t is personal to us, and it wasn’t just business,” he gets into his flow on the first verse.  “Analyzin’ behavioral patterns is somewhat suspicious / N*ggas was never happy for me when I run up the digits / Or when I’m breakin’ world records, still as I guzzle the Guinness / Or when I get my fifth Maybach ’cause the color is different.”

Williams tapped in with Drake most recently on For All The Dogs, offering his production hand to “8AM in Charlotte” and “Stories About My Brother.” As reported back in August, the duo is allegedly working on a joint album together as well.

Stream “Fighting Irish” in the YouTube video above, and stay tuned to Hypebeast regarding the track’s move over to DSPs.
