For All the Dogs

DrakeIllustration2023

The cover of For All the Dogs is a child's drawing: a scratchy white dog with long ears and glaring red eyes, standing on a black background. It was drawn by Drake's son, Adonis Graham, who was five at the time, and Drake revealed it in August 2023 with the simple caption "Cover by Adonis."

Adonis described the drawing as "a carefree piece of work," and Drake linked it to his own past, calling it an inspiration from his 2016 album Views and dedicating it to a picture he had drawn in fifth grade of a cat with blue eyes. The choice suited a father whose relationship with his son had become a public subject after years of rumours and diss tracks.

The drawing quickly became merchandise, sticker sheets and fan art. For All the Dogs was released on 6 October 2023 and debuted at number one, and two unused alternative covers for the album later appeared in 2024.
