Drake appears to be back in the studio. The OVO rapper recently shared a Drake-style photo of himself sitting fireside, staring at his notepad, which quickly put fans back into “investigation mode.”
The post adds to a busy stretch around Drake’s recent output. Back in May, he surprised listeners by releasing not only one project, but also two additional projects. Those releases sparked conversations across social media, including a reuniting with Future by popular demand and lyric moments fans linked to JAŸ-Z, Kendrick Lamar, YG, and even LeBron James. Now, some listeners believe Drake could be preparing for another installment, with “Scary Hours 4” gaining attention as a possible next move.
Fans point to Drake’s pattern of getting back to the studio quickly and his history of major releases. If another project lands before the end of the year, it would be Drake’s fourth release of 2026, which the source says would be the most projects he’s ever dropped in a single calendar year.
Even 10 weeks after its release, one of Drake’s projects referenced in the source continues to perform strongly. The project debuted with 463,000 first-week album-equivalent units, while another Drake release mentioned opened with 110,000. Whether Drake is truly gearing up for another album or is simply working behind the scenes, fans are already watching closely for the next move.
