OVO releases the "VIEWS" digital booklet, including the album's full credits.

Drake revealed the featureless VIEWS tracklist last Wednesday (Apr. 27). In the early evening before he ended up releasing the album on Apple Music while he was on the air for a rescheduled episode of OVO Sound Radio, Drake announced most of the VIEWS features by using memes inspired by his own album artwork. He soon shared a fairly extensive production list, which was later added to by Noah "40" Shebib. OVO has now released the entire list of VIEWS credits, listing the names of everyone involved in the recording of Drake's fourth studio album.

The liner notes are placed carefully across various images of Drake and friends in front of curated Toronto scenes, as part of a slideshow on the OVO blog with a similar layout to a digital booklet. On the first page after the cover art, Drake dedicates the album to Megan Flores, a young girl currently undergoing cancer treatment, whom Drake visited with Rihanna in March while in Miami for an "Anti" tour date: 

"This body of work is dedicated to Megan Flores. I pray for your well being every day."

Digging into the full writing credits, there's not a whole lot of revelatory information, but there are a few names in there worth noting. OVO/Reps Up affiliate Baka Not Nice is given a vocal credit for "Hype," as is Irish singer James Vincent McMorrow. Jeremih has background vocals on "With You," the breezy R&B collab featuring PartyNextDoor. On the standout "Still Here," D. Carter is given a writing credit -- did Dwayne Carter, aka Lil Wayne, help Drizzy with some of those bars?
