"7969 Santa" is a song by Canadian rapper Drake from his eighth studio album For All the Dogs (2023). Produced by Alex Lustig, Nyan, Bnyx and Jahaan Sweet, it features additional vocals from American singer Teezo Touchdown and an outro from American rapper Snoop Dogg, as well as a sample of "I Don't Like" by Chief Keef featuring Lil Reese.
Composition
The song is about a failed relationship between Drake and a 25-year-old partner, which (according to Drake) she blames on her youth,[1] and describes how she violated his trust.[2] At one point it also incorporates "I Don't Like" in the background.[3]
Critical reception
Drea Oppan of Complex praised the song's sample,[3] while Josh Herring of The Line of Best Fit cited it as among the "moments that slip under the rug" in For All the Dogs.[4]
