New Music: Roy Woods - 'Gwan Big Up Urself'

Drake and Justin Bieber weren’t the only ones premiering new music on OVOSOUND Radio on Saturday (Jun. 4). OVO’s Roy Woods comes through and gets freaky on his summer-ready single, “Gwan Big Up Urself.”

The Canadian rapper-singer, who released his Exis EP last July, summed up the infectious island-flavored track with the hashtag “#FunSummerVibes.”

During Saturday’s OVOSOUND episode, Drake also premiered Bieber’s “One Dance (Remix),” Gucci Mane’s Drake-assisted “Back on Road,” and his own solo cut, “4PM in Calabasas.”

Roy’s fun summer vibes are turning into a new project. According to OVO’s Oliver El-Khatib, Roy’s upcoming effort—Waking at Dawn—is slated to drop next month. Starting July 20, you can also catch him on Drake’s “Summer Sixteen Tour.”
