"To the Max" is a song written and performed by American musician DJ Khaled, featuring Canadian rapper Drake. The song was released on June 5, 2017 by We the Best and Epic Records as a promotional single from Khaled's tenth studio album, Grateful (2017).[2] It however was removed from the album and legal streaming platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music.[3] The song contains a sample of the 2007 song "Heartbroken" by British artists T2 (who produced it) and Jodie Aysha (who wrote and performed it).
