Source-derived summary

The Best in the World Pack is the third extended play by Canadian rapper Drake. It was released on June 15, 2019, by Frozen Moments, Republic Records and OVO Sound. It contains the dual singles "Omertà" and "Money in the Grave", with the latter featuring a guest appearance from American rapper Rick Ross, and later becoming Drake's 26th and Ross' 2nd number one respectively, on Billboard's Rhythmic Songs chart in August 2019. Multiple publications noted that the EP marks Drake's first release outside of the Cash Money Records and Young Money Records record labels. Instead, on streaming services, the release lists "2019 Frozen Moments, LLC, under exclusive licensing to Republic Records, a division of UMG Recordings, Inc". Billboard confirmed that Frozen Moments has previously been listed on additional OVO projects.

Background

Drake posted the cover of both songs on his social media on June 14, 2019. After the NBA Championship win of the Toronto Raptors, the songs served as a "celebration release". Drake was named Global Ambassador of the team and was previously seen attending the 2019 NBA Finals.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “2019 EP by Drake” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 24, 2026.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
