Drake Announces New Album With Poetry Book

Another Drake album is on the way. Drake previously teased his poetry book last year, but now the book will be accompanied by a new album.

In newspaper ads promoting the poetry book, a QR code brings you to a site that reads, “I made an album to go with the book. They say they miss the old Drake girl don’t tempt me. FOR ALL THE DOGS." No release date is mentioned for the album.

The poetry book, is ironically titled Titles Ruined Everything - which is also the name of the site the QR code leads to - is now available on drakerelated.com and select retailers.

Drake co-wrote the collection of poems with Kenza Samir. He and Drake have been working together for years on several of the Toronto rapper's projects such as Views and If You’re Reading This, It’s Too Late. The publisher’s website describes Titles Ruin Everything as a 168-page collection of never-before-published poems about “fame, romance, and relationships.”

So far this year, Drake has released four songs. Drizzy hopped on J Hus' "Who Told You," and two songs on Young Thug's latest LP Business is Business. He's featured on "Parade on Cleveland" and "Oh U Went." "Search & Rescue," which samples Kim Kardashian, is his only solo song of the year thus far.

In tour news, Drake is ready to embark on a tour with Her Loss collaborator 21 Savage. The tour starts Thursday (June 29) in Memphis at the FedEx Forum. It will conclude on October 7 at the Scotiabank Arena. Take a look at the updated Drake and 21's It's All A Blur Tour dates here.
