Drake continues to let streamers premiere and preview new songs to their vast audience, a practice he’s been using since leaking the diss record “Push Ups” through DJ Akademiks. This time around, he let Adin Ross play a new song with Chicago rapper Lil Durk called “Discontinuing Wockhardt,” named after the Indian pharmaceutical company known for producing cough syrup.
“Tuesday, I talk to brodie ‘n dem; they get them birds off/ Wednesdays, I got the worst call, they knocked his nerves off/ Thursday, the same as Wednesday, that sh– do hurt, though/ Friday, got the V-12 Maybach in the driveway/ Saturday, pop out with your gun ’cause you could die today/ Sunday, not a sun day because it’s dark out,” Lil Durk raps before Drake sings the hook in which he’s seems sad about not being able to get his hands on some Wok. “Discontinuing Wockhardt, what seal do I pop now?/ What seal do I pop now? What seal do I pop now?/ You know that the Act’ gone, I can’t get no Wok now/ What seal do I pop now? What seal do I pop now?”
Like some fans on social media, Adin was confused as to why they let him preview the song, but then again, the streamer has talked about his own battles with lean addiction. “Wait, I just realized — why’d they have me preview that?,” he asked. “Is it because I was on lean? I’m not on lean no more. And how does The Boy know about — yeah, nah, he’s tapped in. Damn, that was hard.”
Last year, in 2023, Wockhardt was forced to close its troubled manufacturing plant in Morton Grove, Illinois (around 15 miles north of Chicago), in a restructuring effort and moved U.S. operations to Parsippany, New Jersey.
