About Fake Love

"Fake Love" is a song by Canadian rapper Drake, released as the lead single from his 2017 album, More Life. It was co-written by Drake with Starrah, Vinylz, and Frank Dukes, while the latter two handled the song's production. The song was released for digital download on October 29, 2016, through Young Money Entertainment and Cash Money Records.

"Fake Love" features an R&B beat. Lyrically, it focuses on peers who only appreciate Drake for his success, and would not care for him otherwise, hence the lyric, "fake people showing fake love to me". The lyrics "That's when they smile in my face/Whole time they wanna take my place" are an interpolation of The O'Jays' song "Back Stabbers".
