31 year old Hip-hop superstar Drake has hinted on possible release of his new album, which is slating for release in June 2018.

The Toronto music icon posted a photo of himself on Instagram with his back to the camera wearing a jacket with the inscription "Scorpion" and "June 2018".

Drake, who posted separate pictures of himself rocking a scorpion pendant, failed to reveal the exact date of the album release.

He has often played with the traditional album format, instead putting out sprawling song collections marketed as mixtapes.

However one consistency in his prodigious output has been commercial achievement.

Drakes hit song “God’s Plan” ruled the US singles chart for 11 weeks until being dethroned Monday by another of his songs, “Nice for What.”

His latest song was streamed in the United States over 60 million times and downloaded 88,000 times in the week through Thursday, tracking service Nielsen Music said.

Drake, has roots as a rapper but has increasingly gone in a pop direction and incorporated the addictive beats of Jamaican dancehall, most notably on his hit “One Dance,” which is the second most-streamed song ever on Spotify.
