Hard to say we didn’t see this one coming.

With the month of January nearly over, and Certified Lover Boy nowhere to be found—Drake has announced his highly-anticipated new album will no longer arrive this month as originally planned.

The Toronto rapper cited his recent leg surgery and rehab for the injury as part of the reason for the delay.
