Drake is reportedly working on a new project with Griselda-affiliated producer Conductor Williams — and it could drop sooner than people think.
The news was shared on Wednesday (July 31) by Hot 97’s Ebro Darden, who said: “Drake is dropping a project at some point this year — that’s the rumor,” with co-host Laura Stylez adding: “I heard that it’s coming sooner than we think.”
Peter Rosenberg then chimed in and said: “I also heard he has a whole project’s worth of music done with Conductor Williams which is very Hip Hop-y.”
Drake previously collaborated with Williams on his 2023 album For All the Dogs and its Scary Hours Edition deluxe, with the Kansas City producer providing the boom bap soundbed for “8AM in Charlotte” and “Stories About My Brother.”
Williams is also known for his work with Westside Gunn, Conway The Machine, Mach-Hommy and Boldy James, as well as J. Cole (“7 Minute Drill”), Tyler, The Creator (“Sir Baudelaire”) and JID (“30 Freestyle”).
