Plain White T's are just like any other. The team released a video of the audition Snowd4y and Drake's parody remix of their Billboard Hot 100 top song “Hey There Delilah.” And, like the majority of rap fans, they believed that “Wah Gwan Delilah” was also made using AI.

“That's not Drake,” T frontman Tom Higgenson tells the camera as he listens in disbelief. As Drake's verse continues, Higgenson turns to the rest of the band and says, “It's crazy that everybody thinks it's real. It seems pretty obvious. I do not know. But it's cool, whatever.”
His partner, Mike Retondo, agreed, saying, “Yeah, there's no way I'm going to be king.”
To the surprise of many, Drake and his team finally confirmed that the song was indeed real shortly after it was released on Tuesday (June 4). Hush's friend and collaborator posted a screenshot on Snowd4y's Instagram from the X account @Keep6ixSolid with the caption “One for the city,” and the Toronto superstar acknowledged Snowd4y on his Instagram Story with the caption, “@snowd4y wake up the city.
Higgenson and the boys eventually concluded that the remix was real. On his IG Story, Higgenson retweeted a post from Worldstar with the “Wah Gwan Delilah” single art and a photo of Drake asking a very important question: “Dake Drake just covered Delilah?” He then republished a Complex post that featured the song's Soundcloud link and asked another related question, “wtf going onnn?”
Fans were just as confused as the Plain White T's. Not only were people unsure if the song was real, but they also questioned the decision to release this type of song since his fight with Kendrick Lamar. As Snowd4y is a comedian and parody rapper from Toronto, it's not unreasonable to think that Drake just wanted to do something light and funny for his city after a rough few months.
