For All the Dogs
For All the Dogs is the eighth studio album by the Canadian rapper Drake. It was released by OVO Sound and Republic Records on October 6, 2023. The album features guest appearances from Teezo Touchdown, 21 Savage, J. Cole, Yeat, SZA, PartyNextDoor, Chief Keef, Bad Bunny, Sexyy Red, and Lil Yachty. Production was handled by Drake, Teezo Touchdown, and Lil Yachty themselves, along with 40, Sango, Oz, Bnyx, Southside, Boi-1da, Vinylz, Tay Keith, FnZ, Jahaan Sweet, the late DJ Screw, Stwo, Gordo, Justin Raisen, and the Alchemist, among others.
Drake first teased For All the Dogs in January 2023, and developed it mostly during the It's All a Blur Tour. Originally set for release in September 2023, the album was delayed several times and follows both of his albums released in 2022: his seventh album, Honestly, Nevermind, and his collaborative album with 21 Savage, Her Loss. For All the Dogs was supported by five singles: "Slime You Out", "8AM in Charlotte", "Rich Baby Daddy", "First Person Shooter", and "You Broke My Heart", with the latter appearing on the Scary Hours deluxe edition of the album.
Upon the album's release, critical reception was mixed, with praise for its production but criticism for its length and some of its lyrics. For All the Dogs ended up on year-end lists by several publications as one of the best albums of the year. The album set various regional and global sales records. In the United States, it opened with first-week sales of 402,000 album-equivalent units and topped the Billboard 200 chart, becoming the year's highest-selling rap album. It also earned 514.01 million global on-demand streams in the debut week, which was the largest streaming week of 2023.
On January 21, 2023, during his free concert at the Apollo Theater, Drake teased the release of an album, saying he wanted to "strike up more emotions, maybe this year". He also responded to the negative reception of his previous few albums, stating: "I've thought about a bunch of things in life, but at this moment in time none of those things are stopping making music for [the fans]".
On June 23, Drake announced that his poetry book titled Titles Ruin Everything, which was co-written with songwriter Kenza Samir and previously teased in summer 2022, would be released on July 14. One day later, full advertisements on the front-page of the New York Post contained an incorporated QR code. Upon scanning, the QR code redirected to a landing page with a picture of two puppies above a statement: "I made an album to go with the book... They say they miss the old Drake, girl don't tempt me. For all the dogs". Its title was soon officially confirmed by OVO and Republic.
During his performance in Detroit on July 9 for the It's All a Blur Tour, his co-headlining tour with 21 Savage, Drake announced that Nicki Minaj would appear on the album, which however did not happen for unknown reasons. Drake then announced Bad Bunny would appear on the album during a performance in Los Angeles on August 13; he appears on "Gently". Eight days later, Drake revealed the album artwork, drawn by his son, Adonis. On August 22, Amazon Music announced on social media that the album would be released in three days along with praising Adonis for the drawing, but the statement was later deleted.
On September 6, Drake confirmed the album would be released on September 22. Two days after the announcement, he shared a trailer video for the album, which was a flashback of his father, Dennis Graham, performing on the Canadian television series Stormy Monday with Danny Marks in the early 1990s. Exactly ten days after the announcement, he announced that the album would be delayed by exactly two weeks due to the ongoing tour and would be released on October 6. Drake revealed the tracklist on October 5, one day before the album was released.
The lead single of the album, "Slime You Out", which features American singer-songwriter SZA, was released on September 15, 2023.
