The two have been teasing “$ome $exy $ongs 4 U” since last August, when Drake appeared as a surprise guest at PartyNextDoor’s concert in their native Toronto. “I know all you girls are outside and when it gets a little chilly, PartyNextDoor and Drake album will be right there for you,” Drake said.
Over the next few months, both artists teased that the album’s release was imminent. Most recently, Drake appeared on a livestream with Adin Ross in December where he told him the album was initially intended for November but ended up getting delayed.
Drake and PartyNextDoor have been frequent collaborators over the years, ever since the latter became the first artist to sign to OVO Sound and release his eponymous debut. They’ve traded off guest verses, with PartyNextDoor contributing to projects like “Views” and “If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late” and Drake appearing on “PartyNextDoor Two” and “PartyNextDoor 3 (P3).”
News of the album comes just ahead of the launch of Drake’s Anita Max Wynn tour in Australia, kicking off in Perth on Feb. 4. During the trek, he’ll touch down in Melbourne and Sydney before wrapping it up in New Zealand. Last week, Drake showed that he was prepping for the tour by running through a few of his hits at a karaoke bar.
