Yeat and Drake are back on the same record. MISS MY DAWG arrived as the surprise on Yeat's COCOON EP, and it is the fourth official collaboration between them, following IDGAF, As We Speak and DOG HOUSE from 2025.
Some listeners had already heard it. Drake premiered the song inside his FOMO short film earlier in the week, days before it turned up on streaming services attached to somebody else's release, which is a fairly Drake way to hand over a guest verse.
The title suggests something heavier than the record delivers, and the split is what makes it work. Drake takes the chorus in a reflective register, moving through death, memory and the point at which you have to say goodbye to people you were close to. He gives the song its emotional centre.
Yeat's verse goes somewhere else entirely, bouncing between women, money, drugs and the flex-heavy writing he is known for, before circling back each time to missing his people. The contrast keeps the track from collapsing into a straight elegy, which is the balance HotNewHipHop credits the pairing with finding.
Four collaborations in, the site's reading is that the two have settled into a formula that lets two very different approaches meet in the middle rather than compete. Its five reviewers scored the song 4.10 out of five, a little higher than the EP it sits on.
No producer credit or label has been published for the track. It is logged with the rest of the week's hip-hop releases on the release calendar. Yeat's guest run has been busy elsewhere too, including Young Thug's Eaters with Travis Scott and Future, while Drake has spent the stretch back in the studio.
