Drake has once again surprised fans, this time by confirming the release of his long-rumored collaborative album with PARTYNEXTDOOR. The anticipation for this project has been building ever since August when Drake made a special appearance at a PARTYNEXTDOOR concert in Toronto. While on stage, he announced that the two were working on a joint album, instantly sending fans into a frenzy. Since then, both artists have been teasing the project, describing it as a “classic” in the making. Though there were speculations that the album would arrive before the end of 2024, nothing materialized—until now.

Today, Drake officially broke the silence by dropping a teaser trailer across his social media platforms, revealing the album’s title and release date. The project, titled “$OME $EXY $ONGS 4 U,” is set to drop on February 14, making it a perfect Valentine’s Day soundtrack. In the teaser clip, viewers see a dimly lit hallway leading into a private lounge, where Drake is seen surrounded by women but appearing lost in thought. PARTYNEXTDOOR’s signature smooth vocals play in the background, suggesting that this snippet may be part of the album.

Drake & PARTYNEXTDOOR Delivering Romantic Vibes on Valentine’s Day

With a title like “$OME $EXY $ONGS 4 U,” it’s clear that this album will be filled with sensual and intimate vibes. Fans are speculating that the project may not follow a traditional album structure but instead flow like a curated playlist, similar to Drake’s 2017 release More Life. Given the Valentine’s Day release, the album is expected to perform exceptionally well on streaming platforms, with fans turning to its romantic melodies for the occasion.

Beyond the excitement for new music, many are also analyzing the timing of Drake’s announcement. Just days ago, Kendrick Lamar made history at the Grammys, sweeping five major categories and becoming the first artist to win a Grammy for a diss track with “Not Like Us.” Some believe Drake strategically dropped this album announcement to shift attention away from Lamar’s major win and regain control of the hip-hop conversation. While it remains speculative, the move does raise questions about whether Drake’s latest reveal is part of his ongoing rivalry with Lamar.

Regardless of the timing, this album marks another major moment for both Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR. Their past collaborations—such as “Come and See Me,” “Recognize,” and “Loyal”—have been fan favorites, setting high expectations for this full-length project. As the Valentine’s Day release date approaches, anticipation is reaching new heights, and fans can’t wait to experience what the duo has been working on.
