Drake’s new album, Some Sexy Songs 4 U, has sparked fan interest in a potential country album from the Canadian rapper. The album features a mix of genres, including pop and traditional Mexican music, with standout tracks like “Die Trying” that veer into twangy country territory. Fans have taken to social media to express their desire for a Drake country album, drawing comparisons to artists like Beyonce and Post Malone who have found success in the genre. If Drake were to pursue a country project, he would join a lineage of artists like Lil Nas X who have successfully blended rap and country music.
