Following several delays, Drake has revealed an official release date for his upcoming album, “Certified Lover Boy.” On Friday morning, the rapper interrupted ESPN‘s regularly scheduled SportsCenter program with a cryptic, glitchy commercial that made the announcement. Stylized in the form of a broadcast hack, the stealthy ad featured a piece of cardboard with a clear, handwritten message: “CLB September 3.”
