Drake developed "Views From The 6" with Toronto as his inspiration. The album cover, which shows Drake on top of the Toronto's CN Tower, is generating as much buzz for "Views From The 6" as the tracks themselves.
However, Drake actually found as much inspiration on solid ground as from the heights. Working on "Views From The 6" was a special time for Drake because he was able to drive on his own again, without guards and a driver. According to The Fader, Drake has a special love for driving mostly because this is where he brings inspirations together.
