Drake Announces New EP 'Scary Hours 3' Just Weeks After Release of Latest Album

The EP will be released Thursday at midnight

A new EP is apparently in Drake's plan.

On Thursday, the "Rich Baby Daddy" MC, 37, announced he'll be releasing a surprise EP, Scary Hours 3, at midnight.

Drake revealed the news of the follow-up to his 2021 Scary Hours 2 EP with a post on Instagram, featuring the caption "Scary Hours 3. Tonight at midnight."

Alongside the caption, he posted a nearly two-minute video, which was filmed at the Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto.

“I feel no need to appease anybody. I feel so confident about the body of work I just dropped that I know I can go and disappear for whatever. Six months, a year, two years,” Drake says in a voiceover over a visual of a car from a distance driving through the streets of the rapper's Canadian hometown.

“Though I’m not into the lengthy, super-lengthy disappearances just for the sake of mystery,” he laughs as he heads into the empty arena before he's handed a glass of red wine by a valet. “You know, ultimately it’s coming to me in a way that I haven’t experienced since [2015’s] If You’re Reading This [It’s Too Late] where it’s just kind of like I feel like I’m on drugs.”

He added: “I feel like I’m in that mental state without doing anything. Who am I to fight it?”

The "One Dance" performer then reveals that he wrote the EP's songs in the last five days and he didn't have "one bar written" for his forthcoming EP when he released his most recent album, For All the Dogs, last month.

“It’s not like I’m picking up from some unfinished s---. You know, this is just happening on its own. And who am I to fight it?” Drake said.

At the end of the clip, Drake — with his wine glass in tow — sits down in the orchestra seats to watch an orchestra perform as a white-gloved attendee showcases an invitation featuring the EP title and its executive producers which appear to include Kevin Durant and Noel Cadastre.

The release of the Scary Hours 3 EP comes just one day after Drake dropped the “First Person Shooter” music video with J. Cole.

Earlier this week Drake announced new tour dates alongside Grammy winner and "First Person Shooter" collaborator J. Cole.

The It’s All A Blur Tour — Big As The What? kicks off on Jan. 18 in Denver, before wrapping in March in Birmingham, Alabama. It includes 22 total dates in the likes of Oklahoma City, New Orleans, Nashville, St. Louis and beyond.
