The release date for Drake’s Certified Lover Boy album remains top secret, but Odell Beckham Jr. nearly let the cat out of the bag. Appearing on the All Things Covered podcast, the Cleveland Browns wide receiver revealed Drake’s plan to deliver his highly anticipated album when the ball drops at midnight on New Year’s Day 2021.
“Lover Boy dropping 2021,” he shared with co-hosts Patrick Peterson and Bryant McFadden. “Drizzy I got you on the drop, dropping January 1, 2021. When the ball drops, the album drops. I might have heard a couple [tracks] but not much.”
Once the words left OBJ’s lips, they nearly set the internet ablaze, but Akademiks claims he spoke to The Boy himself and Drake told him the January 1 release date isn’t the case anymore, as he continues to recover from a knee injury.
“According to Drake, January 1st 2021 WAS gonna be the date for the release of ‘Certified Lover Boy’ before he got injured,” Ak relayed. “So OBJ probably thought it was still the date.. it’s not tho.”
A bedridden Drake revealed he suffered a knee injury in October while laid up with his leg in a heavy brace.
“I actually want to use this post to send love and motivation to anybody else that 2020 let loose on,” he wrote at the time. “Start writing the best bounce back story NOW.”
Drake Sends Message Of Support To Benny The Butcher While Showing His Knee Injury Progress
The Toronto native previously teased Certified Lover Boy’s January arrival with a short trailer but now with Drake’s knee injury, the album rollout seems to be a fluid situation.
I cant believe we are still asking what akademiks has to say about it
Lol that’s what I’m saying, like obviously Odell is friends with Drake and in his videos even so he might know what he’s saying. Why does some fat fuck behind a cpu get to tell us anything?
Is it so hard to say lies or false? Cap and lies are both 1 syllable and youre not shortening anything when you say it so why say it? This is a generation of stupid.
Who said this was “journalism”? This is nothing but, celebrity gossip.
Come on dude…u were a kid once…
