Speculations about an upcoming collaborative project including Drake and PartyNextDoor arose
While fans are already anticipating the upcoming studio album which is set to release officially on February 24, speculations arose that the duo (Drake and PartyNextDoor) might be working on a different project linked to the current album.
The speculations arose after Drizzy shared a post from his other Instagram profile @plottttwistttttt, on February 11. The post included an image of what seemed to be a document, with the following texts on it: $$$ 4 U/ Screenplay by PND & DRAKE.
The page also included a statement claiming that it was based on a novel written by Dennis Graham. The date further has been mentioned as December 24, 2024. While this post was shared on social media and gained traction, neither of the two artists has spoken about it as of now.
As for Drizzy and PartyNextDoor's collaboration, their friendship goes back a long way. As per reports by Hot97.com, PND wrote and contributed vocals to a number of hit tracks of the Canadian rapper including Own It and Come Thru from Nothing Was the Same. One of their most successful collaborations to date would have to be the 2016 song Work by Rihanna. The song features Drizzy and was co-written by PND.
Fans are now eagerly waiting for the duo's upcoming project, that too after the beef with Lamar who just won five Grammys earlier this month.
