Welcome to the latest episode of ‘Netizens are angry that something they made up didn’t turn out to be true.’ The latest incident is Drake’s ‘failure’ to release his latest album.
You might have been searching helter-skelter for Drake’s new album ‘For All the Dogs’ with no luck finding it. Which finally led you to Google if it has even been released. Well, I’m here to deliver one of the most heart-breaking news the world of hip-hop has ever heard.
Has Drake Dropped ‘For All the Dogs’?
No, Drake has not released his ‘For All the Dogs’ album yet. The singer has not revealed an official release date for the album. Although fans anticipated it to be out on 25th August, the date is actually incorrect.
It all started when Champagnepapi shared his album cover with the caption “FOR ALL THE DOGS. Cover by Adonis.” He never posted a release date, but fans somehow convinced themselves that the album is dropping this Friday.
The very next day, Amazon Music’s official X(Twitter) account shared a post with the caption, “Drizzy’s son has a future as a cover artist. New @drake august 25th.” The post was deleted soon after, but it wasn’t fast enough to elude fans.
Billboard added the final nail to the delusional coffin with an article that stated, “For All the Dogs is set to release tomorrow (25th August).” The post has also been updated, and the date has been changed to “coming soon,” but once again, it failed to erase the date from fans’ minds.
So when midnight of Thursday rolled around, fans waited with bated breaths for the album. The refresh button on Spotify, Apple Music, and other apps has never suffered as much as it did on Friday.
It took some time, but realization dawned on hip-hop lovers, and it dawned hard. Many posted memes as coping mechanisms, while others resorted to venting their frustration.
Why Didn’t Drake Release ‘For All the Dogs’ Album Yet?
Drake has not released his upcoming album ‘For All the Dogs’ yet because it was never supposed to be out on 25th August. Many fans assumed that the album would be out this Friday, but it was a wrong assumption as Drake never announced an official release date.
While Drake’s eighth studio album is a much-anticipated event, we must wait for Drake to announce the important date. You may be feeling disappointed at the rapper, but it is really just an example of mass hysteria, and Drake is not the one who should be blamed.
Lil Yachty, Drake’s friend, posted a video on X trolling fans: “Jokes on y’all because nobody ever said that it was. Gotta stop believing shit you hear on the Internet.”
I hope that fans take a lesson from this incident and learn that everything you read on the Internet isn’t true. Always verify information, or you will be disappointed again and again.
Drake might not have released his album yet, but it will be dropped soon, and when that happens, the rapper himself will announce it.
So, stay tuned for the upcoming tracks, and beware of rumors.
