Drake releases surprise album overnight on iTunes

Drake gave his fans an early surprise Valentine’s Day gift — dropping a brand new album overnight on iTunes.

It’s called If You’re Reading This, It’s Too Late and includes the new song Jungle.

Drake made the announcement on Twitter and he was still trending in Toronto on Friday morning.

 

The 17-track album costs $13.

The album is a precursor to his next record Views from the 6. (“The Six” is his term of endearment for Toronto.) A number of guests appear on the new album, including Lil’ Wayne, Party Next Door, and Travis Scott.

Drake’s last album, Nothing was the Same was released in 2013, selling more than 650,000 copies in its first week.

News of the album comes after he released a 14-minute short film, also called Jungle, which gives people a tour of Toronto through his perspective.
