Drake fans will have to wait another two weeks for the release of the Toronto rapper’s forthcoming album.
Drizzle has changed the release date for his highly anticipated new album, “For All The Dogs,” in light of his ongoing “It’s All A Blur Tour” with 21 Savage.
The project was originally scheduled to be released on September 22 and will come out on October 6 now.
Drake took to his Instagram Stories to explain the decision, writing: “Okay, my dilemma I am faced with is either cancel shows to finish the album or I complete the mission and drop the album before the last show. I owe you all these memories we are building and anywhere we have missed to-date we will be spinning back for sure.”
“For All the Dogs October 6th,” Drake closed his message. “Its only right….”
The album was previously slated to arrive on the same day as Doja Cat’s album entitled “Scarlet,” which hosts the chart-topping single “Paint The Town Red.”
Drake’s previous three releases – “Certified Lover Boy”, “Honestly, Nevermind”, and “Her Loss” – have all debuted at #1.
On Friday (September 15), Drake dropped his “For All The Dogs” single “Slime You Out,” his first-ever collaboration with SZA. Drake worked on “Slime You Out” with producers Bnyx, Noah “40” Shebib, Dalton Tennant, and Noel Cadastre.
The Canada rapper teased the track with with a photo of Halle Berry getting slimed at the 2012 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards. Berry later said that Drake did not get her permission to use the image.
