In what is a surprise twist for his fans, the rapper Drake decided to postpone the release of his highly-awaited album For All the Dogs. The Canadian rapper had originally set the album's release date for Friday, September 22, 2023, but he has decided to push it back to October 6, 2023. The rapper decided to push the release dates back because of his unwavering commitment to his ongoing It’s All a Blur tour.

Drake took to Instagram late on the night of Friday, September 16, 2023, to explain the dilemma and share the news with his supporters. On his Instagram Stories, he tells his fans that he has to choose between canceling his shows to finish the album or completing his tour and "drop the album" before his last show.

“I owe you all these memories we are building and anywhere we have missed to-date we will be spinning back for sure.For All the DogsOctober 6th. It’s only right…” the rapper said.
