"One Dance" is a song by Drake from his 2016 studio album, Views. It features guest vocals from Nigerian Afrobeat artist Wizkid and British singer Kyla.[2] It samples Crazy Cousinz and Kyla's 2008 UK funky song "Do You Mind?",[3] and is produced by Nineteen85, DJ Maphorisa, 40, Wizkid and Sarz.[4] and written by Drake, Nineteen85, Noah "40" Shebib, Wizkid, Kyla, GRIND 6-6, Errol Reid and Luke Reid.[5] It was released for digital download on April 5, 2016 and was serviced to US urban contemporary, rhythmic contemporary, and contemporary hit radio on April 12, 2016.[6][7][8]

"One Dance" was released shortly after the release date for Views was announced, alongside "Pop Style". In the United States and Canada, "One Dance" reached number one, becoming Drake's first number-one single in both countries as the lead artist. Outside North America, "One Dance" also topped the charts in Australia, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.

Composition

According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com, "One Dance" is written in the key of B♭ minor and has a tempo of 98 beats per minute in common time. The song follows a chord progression of B♭m – D♭ – E♭m, and Drake's vocals span from A♭3 to B♭4.[9]

Reception

Pitchfork Media stated of the song: "Kyla's voice and that resonant piano mash are the first things heard before they cave into a throbbing, wine-worthy tropical thumper. The message is as simple as the beat is mesmerizing: "One Dance" is about the spiritual connection two people can have in a club, when vibrations charge the air and they lose themselves. Drake's verses drift while Wizkid's echoing chirps melt into the fabric of the rhythm. In the closing seconds, a series of tones and polyrhythms collapse in on one another as Kyla's croons give way the Drake's once more. It feels symbolic of the full-fledged multiculturalism on display."[10] Luke Morgan Britton of NME called "One Dance" a "dancehall-indebted dancefloor-filler, the size of which we've not heard since 'Hotline Bling'."[11]

Commercial performance

In the United Kingdom, "One Dance" debuted at number 21 on the UK Singles Chart on April 8, 2016—for the week ending date April 14, 2016—with just three days of sales. The following week, the single jumped twenty spaces to the top of the chart, becoming Drake's first number-one single in Britain as a lead artist, having previously peaked at the top in collaboration with Rihanna on "What's My Name?" in January 2011.[12] Furthermore, "One Dance" became Kyla's first chart-topping song in her home country. The song stayed atop the chart for seven consecutive weeks, becoming the longest running UK number-one single since Leona Lewis' "Bleeding Love" in 2007.[13]

In the United States, the single debuted at number 21 on the Billboard Hot 100 on April 12, 2016—for the week ending date April 18, 2016. The following week it moved to number 13. It sold 104,000 copies during its first week of release, debuting at four on the US Digital Songs chart.[14][15] The song reached number one on the Digital Songs chart the following week, its sales increasing by 14% to 119,000 copies, becoming Drake's seventh leader on the chart. In its third week, "One Dance" jumped to number three, aided by large gains on radio and streaming.[16] In its fourth week, it climbed to number two, tying with "Best I Ever Had" and "Hotline Bling" as Drake's highest charting Billboard Hot 100 singles as a lead artist.[17] In the next week, the song topped the chart making it Drake's first number one on the chart as a lead artist.[18] In the next week," One Dance" fell to number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 behind Justin Timberlake's "Can't Stop the Feeling!" but regained the spot.
