Drake’s extensive catalog remains part of the conversation as speculation grows about his next contract.
Drake could be approaching another massive payday, according to DJ Akademiks.
The media personality claims Drake is nearing a new agreement with Universal Music Group that could become the biggest record deal in history. Although Akademiks described his information as official, no corresponding announcement or financial terms from Drake or UMG were independently located.
The claim arrives alongside a chart update listing 11 Drake projects on the Billboard 200. HABIBTI leads that list at No. 7, followed by ICEMAN at No. 12 and Take Care at No. 18. Older releases, including Thank Me Later, Views, and Nothing Was the Same, also appear.
That catalog activity is the more interesting part of the business conversation. A label isn’t only investing in whatever Drake records next; his existing music continues to give listeners reasons to return.
UMG previously confirmed a broad Drake partnership covering multiple areas of his business. A new agreement could have similarly important details beyond the headline number.
For now, Akademiks has made a major claim. If a deal is announced, I’ll be interested in what Drake actually receives—and what he gives up in exchange.
Quincy is the creator of Ratings Game Music. He loves writing about music, taking long walks on beaches, and spaghetti that fights him back.
