Don Toliver has enjoyed a banner year that’s included a No. 1 album on the Billboard 200, an arena tour, and now he can add a pair of Drake collaborations to his résumé.

Toliver joined forces with Drizzy for “Cold Shoulder” and “Solar Eclipse,” the latter of which interpolates Ella Langley’s record-breaking Billboard Hot 100 smash “Choosin’ Texas.” After premiering in Drake’s FOMO stream in September, the pair of collaborations landed on the OVO rapper’s HABIBTI (FOMO) deluxe on Oct. 2.

As a longtime admirer of Drake, the Houston native reflected on having the chance to team up with Drizzy at this point in his career, and the moment lived up to the hype for Toliver.

“This record to me was just really everything I could possibly ever want. I grew up in [Comeback Season Drake]. So Far Gone, I love that album. It’s one of my favorites,” he said in a Grammy Museum interview with Heran Mamo in Los Angeles on Tuesday (Oct. 6). “I come from that and I just thought that song in particular [‘Solar Eclipse’] was everything I could probably ever want from a collab from us.”

Toliver continued: “That particular type of song, everything was beautiful. It all played out how it was supposed to play out. I thought it was incredible.”

After all 18 tracks from Toliver’s OCTANE album landed on the Hot 100, along with his “Griddle” collaboration with Yeat, he’ll look to add to his chart tally with the pair of Drizzy songs.

The 31-year-old kicked off his massive year with OCTANE in January, which notched Toliver his first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200. He then embarked on the Octane World Tour, taking over arenas across North America. Drake popped out as a special guest at Toliver’s Toronto tour date in August, where he debuted several ICEMAN cuts live.

Toliver isn’t done just yet either, as he’s continued to tease his OCTANE follow-up, NITROUS, which he’s still working on.
