Drake and PartyNextDoor Announce Joint Album at Toronto Show

Drake and his OVO cohort PartyNextDoor announced that they will release a collaborative album later this year. The duo revealed the upcoming LP during PartyNextDoor’s concert on Friday in their native Toronto, where Drake made a surprising appearance onstage.

“On behalf of me and Party, we’ve been working on something for y’all,” Drake told the crowd. “So, you get the summer over with, do what you need to do. I know all you girls are outside. When it gets a little chilly, the PartyNextDoor and Drake album will be waiting right there for you.”

While it was PartyNextDoor’s concert, the audience was treated to an almost hour-long surprise set by Drake. Billboard reported that Drake focused on the R&B-leaning tracks in his catalog and performed the live debut of his Plain White T’s-interpolating track “Wah Gwan Delilah.”

The first signee to Drake’s OVO Sound label, PartyNextDoor has frequently collaborated with Drake over the past decade. Their collaborations include hits like “Come and See Me” and “Loyal.” Drake also featured PartyNextDoor on his album cuts such as “Wednesday Night Interlude,” “Members Only,” and “With You.” However, this upcoming LP will mark the first time the two artists have collaborated on an entire album together.

PartyNextDoor released his latest LP, *PartyNextDoor 4*, in April. Outside of his season of diss tracks and Camila Cabello guest spots, Drake last released *For All the Dogs* in 2023. Prior to that, Drake teamed up with 21 Savage for their collaborative LP *Her Loss* in 2022.
