Today (Nov. 17), Drake gifts fans another round of music quickly after releasing his 10th solo album, For All The Dogs Scary Hours Edition.

The lauded Scary Hours series has previously included hits such as “Wants & Needs” with Lil Baby and his Hot 100 chart-topper “God’s Plan.” In a video posted in the wee hours of the morning on Thursday (Nov. 16), “I’ll say this to you I’m not… I feel no need to appease anybody. I feel so confident about the body of work I just dropped that I know I can go and disappear for whatever… six months, a year… two years,” he began in a visual filmed at Toronto’s Roy Thomson Hall. Drizzy claimed he pieced together the EP within five days.

“You know, ultimately, it’s coming to me in a way that I haven’t experienced since [2015’s] If You’re Reading This [It’s Too Late] where it’s just kind of like I feel like I’m on drugs,” continued Drake. “It’s not like I’m picking up from some unfinished s–t. You know, this is just happening on its own. And who am I to fight it?”

On Wednesday (Nov. 15), Drake unleashed his epic video “First Person Shooter” with J. Cole, which appears on the new collection. “First Person Shooter” went No. 1 on the Hot 100 last month, becoming Cole’s first chart-topper and Drake’s 14th, tying him with Jackson for fifth all-time. Drake and Cole announced their joint trek It’s All a Blur Tour — Big as the What earlier this week. Tickets for the tour went on sale Wednesday via the Cash App Card presale. General on-sale will start Friday, (Nov. 17) at 11 a.m. local time.
