Drake announces his first new album in 2 years — and throws in a mixtape for good measure

On Thursday, the Canadian rapper took to Instagram to reveal not one but two treats for his fans — a mixtape and a new album in the works.

First up, the singer dropped the mixtape — “Dark Lane Demo Tapes” — made up of 14 songs, and featuring guest appearances from Chris Brown, Giveon, Young Thug and Playboi Carti.

The mixtape features guest appearances from Chris Brown, Playboi Carti and others.

Released at midnight on Thursday, the mix is made up of previously leaked tracks, releases from SoundCloud and “new vibes,” the musician said.

But the announcement that really got fans excited? The news that Drake will be releasing his latest album this summer.

The new offering will be his first studio album since “Scorpion,” which came out in 2018.

It’s been a busy few months for Drake. In April, Billboard announced that the rapper had become the first male artist to have debuted three songs at No. 1 on its Hot 100 songs chart.
