Drake fans stayed up until midnight hoping his upcoming album For All The Dogs would drop. However, when the clock struck midnight on Friday (Aug. 25), there was no Drake album to be found. To be fair, the Toronto rapper never gave fans a specific drop date For All The Dogs. According to a since-deleted tweet from Amazon Music, it convinced fans that they would be bumping some new Drake this weekend.

“Drizzy’s son has a future as a cover artist. New @drake august 25th,” the tweet read.

Previously, on Sunday (August 20), @ThePopTingz on Twitter reported that For All The Dogs will also be arriving on Friday. “Drake’s new album, ‘For All The Dogs,’ will reportedly be released next Friday, August 25th,” they wrote.

However, Lil Yachty who is close friends with Drake, did a tweet-and-delete post about the album calling out the reports on For All The Dogs to be untrue.

“Haven’t seen a factual piece of info on For All The Dogs yet lol,” the rapper wrote in the since-deleted Tweet per HotNewHipHop.

As for Drake, the last time he referenced For All The Dogs notably was in a

“Make new friends. If you drink, drink some liquor. If you smoke, smoke some weed. And if you like somebody, like my dad says, keep f—ing. I will be back soon. I have an album dropping for you in, like, two weeks or some s—. But until then, just know, you’re always with me and I’m always thinking of you. Everything I do is for you. Every time I step in that booth, I hope I make you proud.”

Earlier last month, he teased that the “old Drake” will make a comeback on his forthcoming album.

“I’m tired of everybody coming up to me, [saying] ‘man… we miss that old Drake man. We need that old Drake man,'” he said on July 12 during his concert about his upcoming album. “Imma give it to you then.”

As of this writing, an official release date For All The Dogs has yet to be announced.

Drake: 8 Artists He Should Make A Joint Album With

• Drake & Lil Wayne

  Drake looks to Lil Wayne as a mentor, as the NOLA native was the one to give Drizzy his big break. Lil Wayne signed him to his Young Money Entertainment label in 2009. Drake has also praised Wayne’s lyrical ability on multiple occasions. Earlier this year, Drake dubbed Lil Wayne “the greatest rapper to ever touch a mic” when he brought him out for the Dreamville Festival in April. Lil Wayne and Drake have worked together several times, such as “She Will,” “HYFR Hell Yeah F—— Right,” “Right Above It,” and more.

• Drake & Nicki Minaj

  Nicki Minaj and Drake are former label mates. They both were signed to Lil Wayne’s Young Money Entertainment in the early 2000s. They’ve also been frequent collaborators and have worked on “Only,” “Seeing Green,” “Moment 4 Life,” and more. The later was nominated for a 2012 Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance.

• Drake & Rihanna

  Drake and Rihanna owned the summer of 2016. The two dropped both “Too Good,” and “Work” and even prior to that they’ve collaborated on “Take Care,” and “What’s My Name?” While the pair might not have worked out as a couple — much to Drake’s chagrin, as he talked about having a crush on her before he was even famous — they definitely do well in the booth.

• Drake & Travis Scott

  Drake and Travis Scott are a good team: every time they do come together they balance out one another. They’ve worked together on “Fair Trade,” “Portland,” “Company,” “Meltdown,” to name a few. One of their best collaborations from “SICKO MODE,” which was nominated for Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards. Scott was the only guest feature on Drake’s and 21 Savage’s Her Loss when he appeared on “P—- & Millions.”

• Drake & Rick Ross

  When Drake and Rick Ross get in the booth together they bring a rich feeling to whatever track they’re on. The two have collabed on “Aston Martin Music,” “Lemon Pepper Freestyle,” “Money In The Grave,” and more. While a collab album between the two would be a dream, Ross told PEOPLE in 2021 it’s still not set in stone. “Us doing a collab album is most definitely rumors… It’s speculation. But is it like a possible realistic possibility? Of course it is,” the Miami rapper said.

• Drake & Lil Baby

  Earlier this year, Black Coffee, the producer who worked with Drizzy on Honestly, Nevermind said that Quality Control’s co-founder Coach K Lee said that the Atlanta rapper and Drake are working on a project together. (Lil Baby is signed to Quality Control.) “Lil Baby and Drake are making an album,” he told

• Drake & Kanye

  While Drake and Kanye have seemingly buried the hatchet after their three-year beef, maybe they can collab together on an album to make up for the lack of memorable diss tracks during their time at odds. They’ve proven that they are better as when they do hit the studio they come up with classics. The pair have previously worked together on “Forever,” “Show Me A Good Time,” “Find Your Love,” and the “All Of The Lights (Remix).”

• Drake & J. Cole

  Drake and J. Cole have the least amount of collabs but they have an amazing chemistry in the booth and respect for one another’s art. The pair worked together on “In The Morning” and also Cole released a freestyle to Drake’s “Pipe Down” titled “Jodeci Freestyle (feat. J. Cole). Cole recently joined Drake on his Montreal tour stop for the It’s All A Blur Tour. He performed “No Role Modelz,” “Wet Dreamz” and “Middle Child.” Since 21 Savage was absent from the concert he also performed “A Lot,” which both artists appear on.

It’s way too many people in the world that think and know that J. Cole is at top on the pole position.”
