Jungle

Jungle

Drake

“Jungle” gets its title from a nickname for Lawrence Heights, a particularly rough neighborhood in Toronto.

The song sounds like an ode to a particular girl back in the Jungle who Drake struggles to stay connected to as his fame grows.

The term “jungle” could also refer to the chaos of Drake’s life—both the whirlwind of his public success and his private emotional turmoil.

Drake released a short film titled Jungle on his OCTOBER’S VERY OWN blog. You can hear a snippet of this song at the end.

The song samples Gabriel Garzon Montano’s “6 8”.
