Shortly after releasing a new album, Drake announced that he planned to step away from the spotlight for an extended period of time to focus on his health.
The artist was a guest on “Table for One” on SiriusXM’s Sound 42 on Friday morning, where he said, “I probably won’t be making music for a while.”
“I need to focus on my health first. … Nothing crazy, but as you know, I want people to be healthy in life,” Drake explained.
He said that these issues were related to his stomach.
“I need to focus on my health, and I need to get right, and I’m going to do that,” Drake said. “So, I’m closing the studio door for a while. I don’t even know what a little bit is, maybe a year.”
The rapper also released the video for his new song “8 AM in Charlotte” from his new album “For All the Dogs.” His 5-year-old son Adonis starts the video by talking about the artwork he created.
“Okay. Adonis, tell me about your beautiful artwork that you sold me,” Drake tells him at the beginning of the video.
Adonis explains, “So it’s the same story. So the goat was running away from other demons. And other animals. And a flower is blocking the way. So the flowers of fire. The racing car was probably helping the goat. And there were some stairs which are like jail stairs. And there was one person who was at the top. And he was hit with a stick on the side of the track.”
“Okay, so it’s almost like a little story,” Drake asks. “Yes,” Adonis replies.
Drake asked about the letters on the drawing, “And what’s SBW?” “So it’s not a word, but I just wanted to write SBW,” says Adonis.
“Okay. You like those letters? And there’s daddy’s name next to goat. Does that mean daddy is a goat?” Drake asks.
“Yeah. So this is the daddy goat,” Adonis says.
“Daddy goat. It makes perfect sense to me. And do you want to talk about how much money you got for your beautiful drawing?” Drake asks.
“Oh please.” Adonis says.
Drake shares Adonis with artist Sophie Brussaux.
“For All the Dogs” features Bad Bunny, SZA, J. Contains 23 songs featuring collaborations with Cole, Lil Yachty and 21 Savage.
