Drake & The Weeknd Connect In The Studio [PHOTO]

Most were under the impression that Drake and The Weeknd were no longer running mates, but the Toronto crooner informed the public that such wasn't the case in a recent interview with Complex. As further proof, the Canadian duo recently took photos together in the studio.

Their relationship deeply influenced Drizzy's Grammy winning sophomore effort, Take Care, which makes us excited to hear what their latest session produced. The only question is where the track — if one even exists — will land. The YMCMB rapper will deliver Nothing Was the Same September 17, while his counterpart is scheduled to drop Kiss Land September 10.
