Drake & Sexyy Red’s Tennis Lesson Photo Shoot Sparks Collaboration Rumors
Drake and rising star Sexyy Red are igniting speculation about a potential collaboration following a playful tennis-themed photo shoot shared on Instagram. On November 17, Drake, known as the “6 God,” posted a series of photos from their shoot, captioning it with a cheeky remark about tennis lessons and the absence of jewelry. Sexyy Red, who has quickly made a name for herself in the hip-hop scene, responded in the comments, affectionately calling Drake “my baby zeddy.” This interaction has fans buzzing, as both artists have previously collaborated on tracks like “U My Everything,” which peaked at No. 44 on the Billboard Hot 100, and the popular song “Rich Baby Daddy” featuring SZA.
While the playful banter hints at a possible musical partnership, fans are also expressing their impatience over Drake’s much-anticipated album, “Iceman.” Despite releasing three livestreams and singles like “What Did I Miss?” and “Which One” featuring Central Cee, there remains no official release date for the album, leading to frustrations among his followers. One fan commented on social media, “Doin everything but dropping Iceman,” highlighting the growing anticipation for new music. In a recent interview with Complex, Drake discussed the challenges of traditional album rollouts, expressing a desire for a fresh approach to music marketing that departs from the conventional formula of singles and videos. He emphasized the importance of creating excitement around his work, suggesting that the tennis shoot with Sexyy Red could be a part of this reinvention process.
As the music world watches closely, the chemistry between Drake and Sexyy Red could pave the way for an exciting collaboration that fans have been craving. With both artists bringing their unique styles to the table, a joint project could not only satisfy their fanbases but also shake up the current music landscape. For now, the tennis-themed photos serve as a playful tease, leaving fans eager for what’s next in the evolving careers of these two dynamic artists.

“I said tennis lesson she said where’s the bracelet or the necklace,” Drizzy captioned the slideshow of tennis photos. Sexyy hopped into the comment section referring to Drake as “my baby zeddy.”

Billboard Hot 100,
as well as the top 15 hit “Rich Baby Daddy” with
SZA.
The OVO boss has released three livestreams for
Iceman
, but there’s been no indication that the album is set to arrive before 2025 ends. He’s released singles such as “What Did I Miss?” and “Which One” with
Central Cee,
but neither stuck around the charts like a Drake smash hit typically would.
Speaking to
Complex
,
Drizzy went in-depth about how the album rollouts felt stale, which pushed him to reinvent himself with the
Iceman
livestreams.
“I expressed that I love the opportunity for a clean slate of thoughts and excitement and messaging when it comes to the music,” he said. “What I hate is the redundancy of this formulaic approach that’s engrained in our brains from early label days. Single, video, single, video, album cover post, etc.”
