Drake Has Switched To 'Album Mode'

All's good in Toronto, also referred to because the Six. The Canadian capital's NBA team, the Toronto Raptors, won its first championship in league history. The team's global ambassador and world-famous rapper, Drake released two new songs to commemorate the unique occasion. Right now, there's 1/3 occasion to celebrate in the city and for fans of Drake around the globe. He's back in the studio working on a new album.


Drake reported his mode change on Instagram today (June 19) with a series of six photos captioned with "Album Mode." The thing about these photographs is that they look decidedly un-album mode. He's golfing in one, drinking wine on a tennis court in another, then swimming with the wine glass in the last one. Maybe album mode is a code term for vacation. There's one photo in particular that screams that work is getting done. Drake stands on the phone looking fierce, probably calling to get some samples cleared. We don't know nevertheless once the music's coming although at least we know he's in the lab cooking something up.


Drake's two-pack of new songs, cash In The Grave" with Rick Ross and "Omerta" are the opening tastes of new Drizzy following last year's Scorpion. One of that album's cuts, "God's Plan," won Drake the award for Best Rap Song at the 61st Grammy Awards.
