Drake Shifting His Career? Rapper Promises THIS After 'Honestly, Nevermind' Feat

Drake told fans to brace themselves for his surprises this year.

After a long wait, Drake finally shared his seventh studio album, "Honestly, Nevermind," on Friday. It serves as the follow-up to his 2021 "Certified Lover Boy."

As usual, the rapper's project has been gaining attention and success from fans. But aside from his surprise new album, Drake's supporters should prepare themselves for his major career move.

During the June 16 episode of SiriusXM's "Table For One," he revealed the following plans he got after the "Honestly, Nevermind" release.

According to the 35-year-old "Laugh Now Cry Later" hitmaker, he wants to release a book of poetry and share the next installment of his "Scary Hours" EP collection.

"Thank you to everybody who helped me with this. Shout-out to Kenza. Kenza, I love you. I want to send you some love. Me and Kenza have a book coming out this year - we have a book coming out this year, a poetry book," he said, as quoted by Billboard.

His desire to release a poetry book seemingly gave a nod to another project with his long-time collaborator, Toronto-based poet, Kenza Samir.

He famously contributed to Drake's projects, including "Views" and "If You're Reading This, It's Too Late."

Drake did not share further details about his poetry collection, but he asked fans that he hoped they would tune into his following projects, as well.

Drake Broke a New Record!

Before continuing his 2022 plans, Drake also savored success after his "Honestly, Nevermind" officially became Apple Music's biggest dance album in history.

The surprise new album broke the music streaming platform's record for first-day streams globally. Drake easily did that in just one hour.

The rapper also holds other records with his albums. His "Scorpion" remains the second biggest album by first-day streams worldwide on Apple Music.

In addition, he holds the record for the biggest song by first-day streams worldwide in Apple Music history - thanks to his "Girls Wants Girls."

Outside Apple Music, he famously became the first artist in history to debut in the top three spots on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in week one.

He is about to score a new record as he will drop the follow-up to his 2021's "Scary Hours 2" soon.

"I got another Scary Hours pack coming too, in a little bit. Maybe not right now; I need you to just take this in right now," Drake said. "But I have a Scary Hours - I'm gonna slap some head tops off with the Scary Hours pack. I love this s-t."
