PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake’s Joint Album: Fans Finally Get an Update

In August, PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake set the internet abuzz when they teased a long-awaited joint album, leaving die-hard OVO fans on edge. The hype reached a fever pitch when Drake made a surprise appearance during one of PARTYNEXTDOOR’s shows to personally confirm that something big was coming in the fall. Yet, as the season turned, the promised album was nowhere to be found. Drake went quiet, while PARTYNEXTDOOR remained on the road, promoting his latest solo project, PND 4. With the wait stretching on, fans were beginning to wonder if the album was still happening—until November 4, when PARTYNEXTDOOR finally provided a much-needed update.

In an Instagram Live session, PARTYNEXTDOOR assured fans that the joint album is indeed on its way, and he’s set to dive into production immediately after wrapping up his tour. “I have one more show on this tour,” he shared, “And then the album is getting finished.” It’s the clearest sign of progress fans have had since the initial announcement. This message aligns with past comments from PARTYNEXTDOOR, who previously hinted that the album would consist of 15 tracks, promising a mix of smooth, signature sounds and possibly some new surprises.

Adding to the excitement, OVONoel, a longtime member of Drake’s team, hinted at the album’s potential during an October appearance on The Fry Yiy Show, saying, “You guys know what’s coming for you. Party and Drake have a classic. We’re trying to put the finishing touches on it.” However, a month has passed since OVONoel’s statement, and the final polish is evidently still in progress. While some fans might see this as a delay, PARTYNEXTDOOR’s tour schedule does provide a reasonable explanation. The singer has been on a whirlwind journey across the globe to promote PND 4, an album that’s been making waves in its own right.

Meanwhile, Drake has kept a relatively low musical profile, though he’s been active in other ways. He’s celebrated his birthday, talked candidly to fans in Toronto about feeling betrayed, and even engaged in a bit of friendly trash-talk at a Toronto Raptors game, where he famously taunted DeMar DeRozan, a former Raptors star. Adding fuel to the drama, DeRozan recently took Kendrick Lamar’s side in the 2024 rap feud and even appeared in Kendrick’s music video for “Not Like Us,” a song rumored to address tensions with Drake. It’s clear that the 6 God still has some strong feelings about recent events, which could translate into an intense creative outpouring for the joint album.

For fans, the promise of a PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake collaboration feels like a chance for both artists to capture the essence of OVO Sound. With Drake’s emotional openness and PARTYNEXTDOOR’s soulful, introspective vibe, the album is primed to resonate with the timeless feel that first drew fans to the OVO label. Now that PARTYNEXTDOOR is set to shift from the stage to the studio, fans are closer than ever to experiencing the magic that’s been brewing.
