Drake season is finally here. After taking a little bit of a break from music following the release of 2017's More Life, the rapper came through strong this year with the release of his chart topping singles, "God's Plan" and "Nice For What." Fans have eagerly been waiting the release of his new album, Scorpion including Justin Bieber who just dubbed Drake as the GOAT.

Justin Bieber hit the 'Gram to support his fellow Canadian artist, Drake earlier today with a post of the Scorpion tracklist. As Biebs urged his fans to cop the new album, he praised the "I'm Upset" rapper as "the best rapper of all time."

"Everyone cop the best rapper of all times new album tonight at midnight," he wrote.

Drake and Bieber go way back. While they've collaborated on a few occasions, Drake actually made a cameo in Justin Bieber's video for "Baby" in 2010. They've shown support for each other over the years as well so it's not shocking that Bieber praises Drake's artistry.

As we're only hours away from the release of Drake's new album, it's unsure of what to expect. He shared the tracklist which confirmed speculations that it will be a double disc project but he didn't reveal any of the album's features. However, Travis Scott alluded to collaboration with Drake on the song "Mob Ties" back in 2017 so it seems promising that we could expect him to be on the project. Static Major's widow also revealed that Drake has unreleased music from her late husband's catalog featured on the project.
