Drake Says He’s Working on a ‘Slap’ of a New Album During Adin Ross Livestream

Drake announced during a livestream with Adin Ross that he’s working on a new album, and the OVO leader is extremely excited about it.

On Sunday (April 13), Drizzy hopped on a Kick livestream with Adin Ross as part of a partnership giveaway with digital gambling platform Stake. During the lengthy hang, Drake took a moment to thank his supporters for streaming his $exy $ongs 4 U project with PARTYNEXTDOOR, which dropped back in February.


“Thank you to everybody that’s streaming the album,” Drake said while donning some $4U merch. “Every time, every journey. Working on a new album, it’s a slap.”

Adin Ross expressed shock at the quick turnaround for The Boy, whose last solo album For All The Dogs dropped back in 2023. Elsewhere in the livestream, Drake also said Nothing Was The Same and Honestly, Nevermind were the two bodies of work he was most proud of.

As for $4U, the album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 back in February, and the ear worm “Nokia” has been steadily climbing the Hot 100 ever since. It currently sits at No. 3, posing a threat to Kendrick Lamar’s “Luther” dominance, which has held the top spot for seven consecutive weeks.

The Canadian crooner will also be headlining London’s Wireless Festival in July, which he also shouted out during the livestream.

“Shout out to everybody that’s been showing us love, though, for real. On every song. Shout out to everybody that’s coming to Wireless [Festival]. We love you so much,” Drake said.

Zach Bryan Reveals the Very Special Person Who Gets a Royalty Cut From Every Song He Records: ‘He’s the Reason!’

Bryan opened up about the sweet gesture during last month's rambling, two-hour On the Porch podcast chat with Matthew McConaughey.

Zach Bryan is not one to forget where he came from. The Oklahoma-bred “I Remember Everything” singer and military veteran sat down last month with actor Matthew McConaughey for one of his first public interviews in years to discuss Bryan’s new book and EP, Young Manhood & Other Donatable Organs, as well as the sweet, honorable gesture he makes to his former commanding officer in the Navy who helped get his career off the ground.

“Is it true you give your commanding officer a cut of royalties on every track since?,” McConaughey asked after Bryan described the crucial role his former Navy commanding officer, Leo Alba, played in helping to produce his 2019 debut album, DeAnn during the wide-ranging, two-hour On the Porch podcast interview with the actor who starred in his 2024 “Nine Ball” video.
