"U My Everything" is a song by American rapper Sexyy Red and Canadian rapper Drake. It was sent to US rhythmic radio through Open Shift and Gamma as the second and final single from Sexyy's third mixtape, In Sexyy We Trust.[1] The song was produced by Tay Keith, Jake Fridkis, and Luh Ron. Both artists wrote it together; King Willonius is also credited as a songwriter as the song contains a sample of his 2024 song, "BBL Drizzy", which was created as a comedy diss towards Drake, who raps over the sample.[2][3] "U My Everything" marks the second collaboration between Sexxy Red and Drake, following the latter's single, "Rich Baby Daddy", which also features American singer-songwriter SZA, from his eighth studio album, For All the Dogs (2023).

Background

[edit]

On May 24, 2024, Sexyy Red released her third project, a mixtape titled In Sexyy We Trust through Gamma and Open Shift, it features "U My Everything", a song where Sexyy Red teamed with Canadian rapper Drake.[4] The rappers flow over a Metro Boomin produced instrumental, "BBL Drizzy", a diss record aimed at Drake following their ongoing rap feud released in early May 2024.[5]

Critical reception

[edit]

Billboard's editor Angel Diaz wrote that they "like the song", and that it was a "calculated move" by Drake, in reference to his feud with Kendrick Lamar.[6] Others, such as TheGrio's Touré, criticized the song, wondering if "maybe Kendrick Lamar has stolen Drake and J. Cole’s powers?"[7]
