The last few months of 2013 will be major for Drake as he's not only launching a tour with Miguel and Future, but releasing a full-length album.
Announced Saturday, the new album has been titled "Nothing Was The Same" and it will hit stores in September.
Drake delivered the news in a big way, dropping four new songs via his OVO blog (October's Very Own) Saturday.
With September 17 now running across the top of his blog (the album's release date), fans can listen to "The Motion" featuring Sampha, "Jodeci Freestyle" featuring J. Cole, Migos' "Versace" and PARTYNEXTDOOR's "Over Here."
It's unclear if any of the songs will be released on the album.

Drake is back and he’s bringing new music with him! The rapper just announced his upcoming album, ‘Nothing Was the Same’ and dropped four brand-new songs. His fans are already going wild for the tracks and are eagerly awaiting the full album release. Get ready to enjoy some fresh Drake tunes straight from the Canadian superstar himself!
The long-awaited announcement of Drake’s third studio album came on July 15th via Twitter, introducing us all to ‘Nothing Was The Same.’ He followed it up a few days later by releasing four singles – ‘Started From The Bottom’, ‘5AM In Toronto’, ‘Girls Love Beyoncé’ (featuring James Fauntleroy) and ‘Jodeci Freestyle’ (ft. J Cole). All four have been met with great enthusiasm by dedicated Drizzy followers who can’t wait to hear what else he has in store for them.
We don’t know much about what we’ll find on Nothing Was The Same when it drops this fall, but whatever it is promises to be another amazing hit for the rap star. With an impressive track record like his, there’s no doubt that this album will be worth waiting for!
Album Overview
Drake’s highly-anticipated third studio album, ‘Nothing Was the Same’, is finally here. After months of speculation and anticipation, Drake has officially announced the release date for his much-awaited project. Along with the announcement came four new songs to give fans a taste of what’s to come on September 24th.
The first single off the album, ‘Started From The Bottom’ was released back in February and set an expectation of high quality music from the upcoming LP. With this announcement comes even more excitement as fans look forward to hearing what else Drake will bring to the table. He has already shown us that he can do hip hop, R&B and pop all at once; now it seems like we are about to get a whole lot more.
These new tracks have only heightened expectations for the full body of work yet to come. It’s clear that Drake wants nothing but success with this album – something which he has achieved time and again in his career so far. We eagerly await its release later this year!
Track Listing
Drake has revealed the tracklist for his upcoming album, ‘Nothing Was the Same’, and it looks like fans are in for a treat. With fourteen tracks in total–including previously released singles ‘Started From The Bottom’, ‘Hold On We’re Going Home’ and ‘All Me’–this project is sure to be one of Drake’s best yet.
The full track list features an impressive roster of guest artists including Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Birdman, Soulja Boy and more. There are also collaborations with producers such as Noah “40” Shebib and Boi-1da who have worked closely with Drake throughout his career. Fans can expect some serious bangers from this collection!
With all these stars involved and a wide variety of musical styles on offer, ‘Nothing Was The Same’ looks set to live up to its hype. This will be Drake’s third studio release following 2011’s ‘Take Care’ which was highly successful both critically and commercially. It looks like he’s ready to take things to the next level once again with this new record.
Conclusion
I’m excited to hear Drake’s newest album, Nothing Was the Same. The tracklisting looks amazing and I can’t wait to see what he comes up with. With his previous releases being so successful, this one is sure to be a hit as well!
The four new songs that have already been released are great, and they give me hope that the rest of the album will deliver just as much quality music. From what we’ve heard so far it sounds like Drake has really put in some effort for this project. He’s clearly aiming to make something special here.
Overall, I think Nothing Was the Same could very well become another classic release from Drake. His fans have waited patiently for more than two years since Take Care was released, and now it seems all their prayers have been answered. It’ll certainly be interesting to see how people react once the full album drops!
