Drake announces ninth solo album

Drizzy is determined to make 2025 his year after a rough 2024.

The rapper hosted a gambling livestream on his Kick channel along with one of the biggest streamers in the world, Adin Ross.

The stream was titled “Stake vs Drake & Adin,” during which the God’s Plan rapper teased his ninth solo album.

As he was getting ready to gamble, Drake said to Ross: "Working on a new album right now ... It slaps."

The announcement sent the viewers into a frenzy with many bombarding the comments section.

The audience also got to witness the real-life Anita Max Wynn, a redheaded, glasses-wearing server who frequently made appearances throughout the livestream.

The 38-year-old released a collaborative album with fellow Canadian PartyNextDoor back in February (on Valentine’s Day, to be specific).

$ome $exy $ongs 4 U debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, marking Drake’s fourteenth album to do so.

The album includes singles like NOKIA, which has climbed to number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and is expected to reach the top in the coming weeks.

Who is Anita Max Wynn?

Anita Max Wynn is the name of Drake's tour of Australia, which was announced in November 2024.

The name stemmed from the gambling phrase “I need a max win,” and the rapper introduced the character Anita Max Wynn in a Kick livestream back in December 2023.
