Recording artist Drake performs onstage at the 2016 iHeartRadio Music Festival at T-Mobile Arena on September 23, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Drake hints at a new single after "God's Plan" holds number one position for seven weeks straight.

Drake's clearly winning this year, as he's been for the past several years, but he definitely kicked off 2018 with a bang. After dropping "God's Plan" and "Diplomatic Immunity," he made it clear that he was coming back to conquer the rap game this year. "God's Plan" is arguably his biggest single to date. It's currently sitting at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 for the seventh week in a row and has gone multi-platinum. While the wave for it is still high, it looks like Drake's gearing up to drop off a new single soon.

As the OVO camp celebrated the success of "God's Plan," Drake hinted at new music coming soon. OVO Chubbs posted a picture to commemorate "God's Plan" seventh week at the top of the Billboard Hot 100. In the comment section, Drake simply says, "Next one soon splash."

After the release of the Scary Hours EP, Drake delivered a stand-out verse for Migos' Culture II on "Walk It Talk It." A week later, he dropped off his collaboration with Blocboy JB on "Look Alive" which is still sitting high on the charts as well.

During "Drake Night" at the Toronto Raptors game against the Houston Rockets, Drake took a moment to show some love to his fans as well as a brief update on his upcoming album.

"I love each and every one of you," Drake said. "I'm happy to be home. I'm working on this new album for the city."

As Drake preps for his new album, we're excited to hear what he ends up following up "God's Plan" with.
