Drake’s highly anticipated 8th studio album For All The Dogs has finally arrived, directly following his 2022 projects Honestly, Nevermind, which offered house-influenced take on his sound, and Her Loss, an explosive collaborative album with 21 Savage. A massive project, For All The Dogs features a staggering 23 tracks, executively produced by 40, Oliver El-Khatib, Noel Cadastre and Drake himself.
