Drake has unveiled Scary Hours 3, featuring six new songs.
The third installment in the Scary Hours series arrives as an expansion of the rapper’s latest album, For All the Dogs, which itself dropped just a month ago. Now– amidst hiatus-inducing tummy troubles – the new songs were written and recorded over a period of just five days, and include the track “Evil Ways,” featuring J. Cole. The previous two Scary Hours releases touted big hits, including 2018’s “God’s Plan,” as well as 2021’s “Wants and Needs” featuring Lil Baby and “What’s Next.”
“I feel no need to appease anybody,” the rapper says in a moody drone-shot announcement video filmed over Toronto’s Roy Thomson Hall. “I feel so confident about the body of work that I just dropped that I know I could go and disappear for six months, a year, two years – even though I’m not really into the super lengthy disappearances for the sake of mystery.”
The video ends as Drake walks into the arena and takes a seat in front of a full orchestra, while a white-gloved attendant hands over an invitation featuring the title Scary Hours 3. See the promo clip and stream For All the Dogs Scary Hours Edition below.
After a prolific past few years, the new Scary Hours might be the last new music we hear from Drake for a while; last month, he said he planned on taking a hiatus from recording while he attends to his “crazy stomach problems.” In the meantime, you can listen to the new debut single from his six-year-old son.
Drake is also hitting the road in January on his “It’s All a Blur Tour – Big as the What?” with J. Cole accompanying on select dates. Get tickets here.
