After sneaking a tease onto SportsCenter last week, Drake confirmed on Monday morning that his hotly anticipated Certified Lover Boy (OVO/Republic) will drop this Friday, 9/3, setting up another monster week of activity.

Drake first announced the project in mid-2020, teasing that it would arrive in January 2021. However, having worked on CLB throughout the year, he'll once again deliver an album on the heels of a Kanye West project amid a highly publicized feud between the two superstars.

Happy holiday weekend!
