Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, For All the Dogs performed well commercially, debuting at number one on the Canadian Albums and US Billboard 200 charts, among other countries.
Background and promotion
On January 21, 2023, during his free concert at the Apollo Theater, Drake teased the release of an album, saying he wanted to "strike up more emotions, maybe this year".[4] He also responded to the negative reception of his previous few albums, stating: "I've thought about a bunch of things in life, but at this moment in time none of those things are stopping making music for [the fans]".[5]
On June 23, Drake announced that his poetry book titled Titles Ruin Everything, which was co-written with songwriter Kenza Samir and previously teased in summer 2022, would be released on July 14.[6][7] One day later, full advertisements on the front-page of the New York Post contained an incorporated QR code.[8] Upon scanning, the QR code redirected to a landing page with a picture of two puppies above a statement: "I made an album to go with the book... They say they miss the old Drake, girl don't tempt me. For all the dogs".[9][10][11] Its title was soon officially confirmed by OVO and Republic.[12][13]
During his performance in Detroit on July 9 for the It's All a Blur Tour, his co-headlining tour with 21 Savage, Drake announced that Nicki Minaj would appear on the album, which however did not happen as the song was scrapped in turn for Minaj's fifth album Pink Friday 2, which would turn on to be "Needle"[14][15] He also announced Bad Bunny would appear on the album during his performance in Los Angeles on August 13, who is featured on the song "Gently".[16] Eight days later, Drake revealed the album artwork, drawn by his son, Adonis.[17] On August 22, Amazon Music announced on social media that the album would be released in three days along with praising Adonis for the drawing, but the statement was later deleted.[18] On September 6, Drake confirmed the album would be released on September 22. Two days after the announcement, he shared a trailer video for the album, which was a flashback of his father, Dennis Graham, performing on the Canadian television series Stormy Monday with Danny Marks, in the early 1990s.[19] Exactly ten days after the announcement, he announced that the album would be delayed by exactly two weeks due to the ongoing tour and would be released on October 6.[20] Drake revealed the tracklist on October 5, one day before the album was released.

For All the Dogs received a score of 53 out of 100 on the review aggregator Metacritic based on 13 critics' reviews, indicating "mixed or average" reception.[25] Aggregating nine critic scores, AnyDecentMusic? rated For All the Dogs a 4.7 out of 10.[24] Shahzaib Hussain of Clash complimented the "smoky coos, chatter, static and dizzying detours" as the "production roves between sterilised studio sheen and an earthy fusion of soul samples and boom-bap drums" and remarked that while "this isn't his certified rap classic[,] it does signal a turning point".[27] Will Hodgkinson of The Times called Drake "a seriously good rapper" that "cannot stop himself from complaining all the time".[32]
Pitchfork's Julianne Escobedo Shepherd wrote that Drake "has yet again doubled down over a melange of styles—drill, underworld R&B, Playboi Carti's flow—and other than a few flashes of brilliance, the music can't save him from himself", stating that "the meat of this bloated 23-track album are his own grievances and a dearth of topical contrast".[31] Mosi Reeves of Rolling Stone felt that there is "evidence of a good album somewhere within the hour-and-a-half long bloat that is For All the Dogs" but summarized the album as "meandering".[34]
Tim Sendra of AllMusic wrote that "Drake slides back into his usual M.O. of slow as taffy pull beats, alternately aggressive and morose rapping, and topics that range from how great Drake is to how rich Drake is to how misunderstood Drake is with the occasional bit of misogyny added in to put some rotten cherries on top".[26] Nadine Smith of The Independent found that "the childish pettiness and adolescent insecurities that were once endearing in their juvenilia now seem tired and immature. Instead of chilling out and settling down as he approaches his forties, [the album] sees him acting up more than ever, in ways that frequently reek not just of insecurity, but outright misogyny".[29]
