"Greece" (stylized in all caps) is a song by American musician DJ Khaled, featuring Canadian rapper Drake. It was released on July 17, 2020, simultaneously with their other collaboration "Popstar", as the dual lead singles from Khaled's twelfth studio album, Khaled Khaled. The songs marked the reunion between Khaled and Drake, who collaborated on various songs since 2010. Both tracks were produced by frequent Drake collaborator OZ. Critics deemed "Greece" a "luxurious" song, comparing Drake's vocals to fellow Canadian singer the Weeknd. "Greece" peaked at number three on the Canadian Hot 100. Outside Canada, the song topped the charts in Greece, peaked within the top ten of the charts in New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States, the top twenty of the charts in Switzerland and the top forty of the charts in Australia, Austria, Belgium (Flanders), Germany and Ireland. Background In August 2019, Swiss record producer OZ released a 40-second video on Instagram, showcasing a new project he had been working on. The video featured the same beat later used on "Greece", together with vocals in German by OZ himself. He accompanied the video with the description "oz - greece" and the hashtag #SOLOCAREER. This sparked rumors that the producer, who had previously never come into the spotlight as a lyricist, would release the song as his first fully independent music project. The German lyrics heard in OZ's original release are very similar in meaning and vocal melody to those later used by Drake on the final song. The original video by OZ was later removed from Instagram. Speculation of a new DJ Khaled and Drake song first arose in January 2020, when Khaled flew to Drake's hometown Toronto. After spending time together in the studio, Khaled stated "It's amazing what you can get done in 24 hours". On May 1, Drake previewed the record during a livestream on Instagram. In June, both Drake and Khaled teased the collaboration by captioning various posts with emojis of an owl and a key, the owl being the mascot of Drake's OVO label and the key unofficially standing for DJ Khaled. Khaled further revealed that "the first single been ready" and confirmed that he was working on a new album. After fans inundated Khaled with questions on the Drake references, he said fans would have to wait a little longer for new music, but did not confirm any music with Drake. The track then leaked in early July.

Notable quotes

“And the hairy he-goat [stands for] the king of Greece; and as for the great horn that was between its eyes, it [stands for] the first king. And that one having been broken, so that there were four that finally stood up instead of it, there are four kingdoms from [his] nation that will stand up, but not with his power.”
— Daniel 8:21,22 (NWT)
“Greece is a sort of American vassal; the Netherlands is the country of American bases that grow like tulip bulbs; Cuba is the main sugar plantation of the American monopolies; Turkey is prepared to kowtow before any United States proconsul and Canada is the boring second fiddle in the American symphony.”
— Andrei Gromyko, New York Herald Tribune (30 June 1953).
“Fuck your parliament and your constitution. America is an elephant. Cyprus is a flea. Greece is a flea. If these two fleas continue itching the elephant, they may just get whacked good. We pay a lot of good American dollars to the Greeks, Mister Ambassador. If your Prime Minister gives me talk about democracy, parliament and constitution, he, his parliament and his constitution may not last long.”
— Lyndon Baines Johnson, comment to the Greek ambassador to the United States, Alexander Matsas, over the Cypriot issue (June 1964). As quoted in I Should Have Died (1977) by Philip Deane, pp. 113-114.
“Hellas has been transformed to an endless bedlam.”
— Konstantinos Karamanlis, during the crisis of 1989 and the political polarisation of the era.
