Who is Kenza Samir? Drake collaborates with songwriter and poetess for poetry book

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Canadian singer and songwriter Drake recently announced his book of poetry, named ‘Titles Ruin Everything: A Stream Of Consciousness By Kenza Samir & Aubrey Graham’. As the ‘Spin Bout U’ singer dropped the name of the book, fans are curious regarding the identity of Samir. As it happens to be, Samir is a poetess and a long-time collaborator of the ‘Euphoria’ producer’s multiple musical ventures.

Even though Drake announced the book on Friday, June 23, he dropped hints about it in 2022 during his ‘Table For One’ radio show on SiriusXM. During the show, he said, “Thank you to everybody who helped me with this. Shout-out to Kenza. Kenza, I love you. I want to send you some love,” adding, “Me and Kenza have a book coming out this year — we have a book coming out this year, a poetry book,” as per the Daily Mail.

The 'Passionfruit' singer took to his Instagram to announce the book, saying, "I don’t know if I have ever wanted people to buy or support something more in my life…our first book is available tmrw on @drakerelated and other select retailers."

Who is Kenza Samir?

Samir has often collaborated with Drake on multiple songs. One of her significant contributions was to his 2015 solo mixtape, ‘If You’re Reading This, It’s Too Late’. In this album, she received a total of four writing credits. Samir’s notable collaborations with Drake include ‘HYFR’ by Drake featuring Lil Wayne, ‘Jungle’, ‘Connect’, ‘Too Good’, ‘Views’ and ‘Keep the Family Close’. She has also contributed to ‘Euphoria’s’ ‘Nonstop’. Drake collaborated with Samir for ‘Emotionless’, ‘Redemption’, and ‘6 PM in New York’ too. Some of Samir’s other songwriting ventures include ‘Weston Road Flows’, ‘No Tellin’’, ‘Pop style’, ‘Used To’, ‘March 14’, ‘Glow’ and ‘Peak’ among others.

While Samir is extremely protective about her private life, from her social media, it can be inferred that she loves coffee as several of her posts are dedicated to the beverage. Hiding her face, she once posted a photo with the caption, "The theme is/will always be coffee."

Samir also appears to be extremely fond of travelling as she often shares snippets of her tours on social media.

Samir also shares the inner turmoils of a poet's mind through some aesthetically appealing pictures that provide a few glimpses of her artistic soul. While she consciously hides her face on her Instagram posts, once she shared a photo of hers from her childhood.
