Toronto artist K-Os is preparing to release his first full-length studio album in over a decade. The project, titled “BLackneck,” is being financed by Drake with hundreds of thousands of dollars. K-Os described the investment as an experiment, noting that Drake often approaches ventures like a gambler.

The upcoming album is expected to be a blend of hip-hop, country, rock, and soul. This collaboration follows a long-standing relationship between the two artists that spans nearly twenty years. K-Os recently released a single titled “Guns & Roses,” which serves as a precursor to the new project.
