Drake Announces Honestly Shocking 7th Album: "Out at Midnight."
The Grammy winner stuns his 113 million Instagram followers with Thursday's announcement.
The 35-year-old Grammy winner stunned her 113 million Instagram followers on Thursday by announcing her seventh studio album, Honest, Nevermind, due at midnight.
"HONEST NEVERMIND seventh studio album out at midnight," Drake wrote in the caption, sharing the chrome-inspired album from the album.
The news was noted by friends and fans in the comments section. "Get your sprayers ready!" wrote DJ Khaled. "Time to shine a light on Jimmy Brooks," said Lil Yachty, referring to Drake Degrassie's character. Lala Anthony, Jay Pharoah, and Rich the Kid responded with fiery emojis.
Early last week rumors circulated among fans that Drake would be releasing a 15-song mixtape titled Summer 22, XXL reported. After a month's delay, Drake released his sixth studio album, Certified Lover Boy, in September. It quickly became Spotify's best-selling album of the day, beating Scorpion's previous record set by the 2018 album. CLB broke the same form as Apple Music.
He also won a nomination for Best Rap Album at the 64th Grammy Awards before withdrawing from the awards show after calling the Recording Academy about turning down his friend The Weeknd a year earlier.
"I think we need to stop allowing ourselves to be surprised every year by separating impactful music with this award and just accept that what was once the highest form of recognition is now for artists who… exist, and those who can no longer care to come after.' wrote Drake at the time
