Overview
- Drake made the Take Care-era song “Hate Sleeping Alone” available on major streaming services and YouTube in the rollout reported on Friday, Nov. 13.
- The song originally circulated as a digital-edition bonus and was mainly reachable through Apple Music or low-quality YouTube uploads, leaving Spotify users without an official high-fidelity version.
- Coverage of the rollout included conflicting accounts about Spotify during the window of publication, with some outlets saying it was absent and others reporting it was available or arriving shortly.
- Billboard and other outlets report Noah “40” Shebib produced the track and Trey Songz supplied background vocals, though those credits are presented by limited sources.
- The release marks a targeted archival move for Drake on Take Care’s 15th anniversary and improves fan access to a well-regarded era cut while signaling a pattern of anniversary-era archival releases this year.
