Drake makes headlines with "Headlines"


Drake is making headlines again with his suitably titled track "Headlines", the lead single off his sophomore album Take Care.

The video was filmed in his hometown of Toronto, Canada and shows Drake roaming around the city and some of it's most iconic landmarks, like the Toronto Rogers Center, before toasting to his success with his team over a lavish dinner. The video also reflects the ups and downs of fame, and replays clips of the rapper riding up and down an elevator.

Admitting "Headlines" isn't the best off the album, Drake told Billboard's The Juice, "it's really just the song for this moment."

"I always try to put forth a song with a message. A lot of people pick their single by what's the strongest song. I don't really do that. I like to make sure that the content is very relevant to right now," he said, "I want people to party to it but at the same time the fans, the people that care about my career, the people that follow me, will hear a message in it."

Check out the music video above and be sure to pick up Take Care when it drops on Drake's 25th birthday, October 24.
