Drake signals return to form with ‘ACTIVATED’ post

Drizzy seems to be all the way back as he gains momentum in 2025 after a tough last year.

The artist released his collaborative album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U on Valentine’s Day, which was a joint effort between the artist and fellow Canadian PARTYNEXTDOOR.

The album reportedly saw an 8,500% spike in vinyl sales after it was released in the vintage format last week.

This week, Chart Data reported that two more of Drake’s songs are now RIAA diamond-certified.

The 38-year-old now has a total of ten tracks to achieve this significant milestone, as no other artist has that many diamond-certified songs.

The two entries on the list are 2009’s Best I Ever Had and Hold On, We’re Going Home, which was released in 2013.

Drake was likely made aware of these achievements and made a social media post to signal that he is indeed back.

On Wednesday, the rapper uploaded a photo on his Instagram Story during a gym session with the caption “ACTIVATED.”

The God’s Plan singer has lately been active on Instagram, proclaiming he is entering a “new chapter” in life.

He also made a cryptic post last weekend that may have given away the title of his next album.

Drake posted several pictures featuring a selfie, luxury watches, a snowy landscape painting and a diamond-cased Nokia 3310 with the caption “I C E M A N.”

Is Drake working on his next album?

In April, Drake announced his ninth solo album during a livestream with Adin Ross. "Working on a new album right now... It slaps," the rapper said.
