Drake Finally Confirms When He'll Release His Next Album 'More Life'
Drake has had an incredible year with the success of his Views album, breaking records for streams and sales and nabbing a bunch of Grammy nominations for his fourth release.
But one album is all we'll get from Champagne Papi this year, despite rumors that he might be getting ready to drop a second one just in time for Christmas.
Though his next record More Life is definitely a real thing, we won't get our ears on it until early 2017, both Drake and his business associate Oliver El-Khatib confirmed yesterday. El-Khatib announced on OVO Sound Radio on Saturday that More Life would be dropping at the top of 2017. Drake confirmed that news, without specifying a date, on Instagram shortly after, posting a video of himself playing ball with some friends.
“Finally got to play today after recovering from the ankle injury," he captioned the clip, referring to the ankle injury he suffered a couple of months ago that forced him to cancel a couple of shows on his Summer Sixteen tour. "Happy to be back at 100 and ready for More Buckets More Shows and More Life 2017.”
While this is surely a disappointment to those who were expecting a stocking stuffer from Drake this Christmas, 2017 is just around the corner. Besides, hasn't Drake already done a lot for us this year?
