The song will be included on Camila Cabello’s upcoming album.
Camila Cabello debuted her long-awaited collaboration with Drake, titled “UUGLY,” during her performance at the Rock in Rio Lisboa festival on Sunday night.
The song will be featured on her upcoming fourth studio album, C, XOXO, scheduled for release later this month.
Fans on social media have had a varied reaction to the track. One user on X (formerly Twitter) responded to a clip of the song with: “Honestly I think drake should just take off for a year or couple months.”
That comment follows his widely-discussed dispute with Kendrick Lamar. Another fan commented, “Damn bro fell off.” However, others expressed positivity. A Drake supporter noted, “The actual [goat emoji] international not just in the west coast. Levels to this.”
Previously, Cabello talked about the collaboration’s genesis in a Billboard interview in May. “He’s the f*cking GOAT, so it felt like shooting for the stars,” she remarked, recounting how she reached out to him on Instagram.
“I showed him the album when I felt comfortable enough and he really liked it. [The feature] came out of a nontransactional place. He had this idea of a song called ‘Hot Uptown,’ and it just felt like I was in the city. I was in Miami.”
She further explained, “He wanted to do one more thing for the album. Why does he have his own song? Because selfishly, I just want to hear Drake on my own album … I love that for me — it’s like that rebellious mood. Who says I can’t do that? It’s Drake talking his sh*t.”
Fans can officially stream the song when C, XOXO is released on June 28th.
