More than 14 years after they dated, Drake and SZA are teaming up and collaborating on a new single.
The 36-year-old rapper (born Aubrey Drake Graham) and the 33-year-old singer-songwriter (born Solána Imani Rowe) both shared the same cryptic Instagram post on Wednesday evening.
Both posts featured a close-up image of actress Halle Berry getting slimed at the 2012 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.
Drake captioned his post simply with a wide-eyed emoji and a green heart emoji, though he didn’t reveal anything else.
SZA – who debuted her Snooze music video with Justin Bieber last month – shared the same image, though she captioned it with a green puking emoji, a face with hand over mouth emoji and a googly eye emoji.

The song will be released on Drake’s forthcoming studio album For All The Dogs, which is set for release September 22.
It seems this single will be released on Friday, September 15, after Drake teased the single during a concert in Austin, Texas for his It’s All a Blur tour.
‘I know y’all are excited to hear the album. I know it’s like two weeks out, but I’m gonna drop a song this week – just to let you know what’s up,’ Drake told the crowd.
Drake revealed that he and SZA had once been together in the lyrics to his 2021 song Mr Right Now.
‘Yeah, said she wanna f*** to some SZA, wait/Cause I used to date SZA back in ’08,’ read the lyrics, though they weren’t entirely accurate.
‘So It was actually 2009 lol,’ SZA tweeted, suggesting that Drake was just trying to rhyme with ‘wait.’
Either way, Drake and SZA were involved in and around the early days of his on-off romance with Rihanna.
In 2022, SZA joked in an interview with Audacy that Drake reminded her of Regina George in Mean Girls, but clarified that there were no issues between the two, saying ‘I think really highly of him.’

The bombshell artist has denied plastic surgery rumors in the past, specifically when it comes to her nose.
In a 2018 interview with Teen Vogue, she said: ‘Everyone thinks I have a new nose! I don’t really care about my nose, it’s not a big deal, but what I didn’t realize is when I was heavier, my entire face changed.’
SZA – born Solána Imani Rowe – went on to explain that the rhinoplasty rumors emerged after her nose ‘adjusted’ to her new body type.
‘I was heavier for three years and then my nose adjusted to that. I spent most of my life being slim before then, being in sports. And then I kept growing and I think my nose adjusted to my new face.
