Drake Announces Collaborative Album With PartyNextDoor, Hinting at Fall Release

After rumors were flying earlier this week that he was gearing up to drop a record with producer Conductor Williams this year, Drake has announced a collaborative album with PartyNextDoor that could potentially arrive this fall.

Drake popped up at PartyNextDoor’s Party and Friends show in Toronto tonight, waiting until the end of his performance to share news that the joint album would arrive this fall. “I know all you girls are outside and when it gets a little chilly, PartyNextDoor and Drake album will be right there for you,” he said, suggesting the heat had to die down for him to put out the record this autumn.

During his appearance at PartyNextDoor’s set, he ran through “Sweeterman,” which leaked as a snippet back in 2015 but was never fully released. While on stage, he also performed “Finesse” and “Redemption,” and his 2016 collab “Come and See Me” with PartyNextDoor. Drake also teamed up with Roy Woods to duet on “Drama,” and for anyone who’s been tuned in to the Internet, he gave a rendition of his Plain White T’s cover “Wah Gwan Delilah.”

Drake has been relatively silent for the past few months following the intense beef with Kendrick Lamar, which resulted in a back-and-forth on record that somewhat concluded in May with his song “The Heart Pt. 6.” In the time since, Lamar has objectively emerged the victor with his song “Not Like Us,” which has scaled the charts and become a Song of Summer contender.

Otherwise, Drake has popped up here and there by posting photos on Instagram. He most recently featured on a pair of songs included on producer Gordo’s new album “Diamante.”
