The xx did indeed sample Drake on their new song "Naive."
The track, which samples Drizzy's 2011 song "Doing It Wrong," was released Friday as part of the English trio's deluxe edition of their brilliant recent album I See You, which arrived back in January.
Writing credits for "Naive" had surfaced earlier this month, with Drake listed. Interestingly, his song also samples another song, "The Wrong Thing to Do" by Don McLean, who is subsequently credited as a writer for both Drizzy's cut as well as "Naive."
