Drake and SZA have teamed up to release a spicy new track. Shortly after teasing their collaboration on social media, the duo released their single, âSlime You Out,â on Friday.

As fans guessed the meaning of the post, SZA also shared the image and made it more clear that the duo had a collaboration set to be released.
Drake and SZA previously revealed that they have a close history. Fans learned about the pair’s dating history after hearing Drake’s lyrics on 21 Savageâs âMr. Right Nowâ track.
âYeah, said she wanna f**k to some SZA, wait / âCause I used to date SZA back in â08,â the Canadian artist rapped in the 2020 song.

âYou ainât âbout the s**t you rappinâ about,â SZA sings.
Drake then fires back.
âSayinâ that Iâm too guarded âbout my feelings, who the f**k even asked you?â he responds.
âSlime You Outâ will be featured in Drakeâs eighth studio album, For All the Dogs. The project which will be released on Sept. 22 according to Variety. The 36-year-old artist got his fans hyped when he recently revealed that he would release a song before the album comes out.
âI know yâall excited to hear the album,â he said. âI know itâs, like two weeks out. Iâm a drop a song for yâall this week. Yeah, yeah. What a time, what a time.â
Drakeâs managerial team said âhe has been working on this album for a while.”
“As soon as he dropped Her Loss, he just kind of kept recording, and weâre waiting for him to finish the work,â the team told Variety. âThe songs Iâve heard are incredible â and obviously, from a managerial standpoint, itâs a uniquely incredible experience to work with an artist that can be on a tour of this size and still hype the fans up even more by telling them thereâs another project on the way.â
