PartyNextDoor gave an update about his upcoming joint album with his label boss Drake and he sounds pretty confident.

During a recent appearance on OVO’s The Fry Yiy Show on SiriusXM, the singer says he and Drake have been hard at work while also placing lofty expectations on the already highly-anticipated project. “I have had an insane week,” he said. “You guys know what’s coming for you. Party and Drake have a classic. We trying to put the finishing touches on it, so… Yeah, it’s a jam-packed month for me filled with the thing that I love to do the most, besides being the world’s greatest dad.”

Drake made the announcement to a surprised crowd earlier this summer during his set at the Toronto stop of Party’s Sorry, I’m Outside Tour. “So, you get the summer over with, you do what you need to do,” he told the crowd. “I know all you girls are outside. When it gets a little chilly, PartyNextDoor and Drake album will be waiting right there for you.” Party then confirmed the project’s existence when he told social media personality Awaiz Punjani, “The one we doing right now – all 15 we doing right now,” after being asked what his favorite song was.

Drake recently went on a rant seemingly addressing the beef he found himself in earlier this year which may explain his need to work on this upcoming album with a longtime collaborator and friend. “My real friends are definitely in the building,” he said while on stage during Tyrone Edwards’ Nostalgia Party in Toronto a couple weeks ago. “But let me tell you that you’re going to come to a point in life where people you thought were friends, people you thought were close to you switch up.”

There still isn’t a release date yet and no singles have dropped, but October isn’t over and there’s still a couple months left in the year.
