Drake is more than making up for those cancelled tour dates.

The rapper announced Sunday night a new project titled More Life. Instead of a mixtape, More Life will be a playlist of original music, according to Complex. It will be released in December.

Here is Drake's announcement in full:

"I'm off like mixtapes, I want to do a playlist. I want to give you a collection of songs that become the soundtrack to your life, so this More Life: The Playlist. Like I said, dropping in December. All original music from me. You might hear some tunes from the family on there. Just really excited. I had a great tour, I had a great summer. And most people would like go probably take a break, but for me I just want to get right back to it. Be with the people again.

"Boy Meets World Tour, coming up soon. UK, I'll be there soon. Big up to UK massive. Everybody—Paris, Amsterdam, Sweden, anywhere we are touching down. But yeah, I just want to celebrate life. More life. That's what we live by. That's something we not take for granted."

Although December isn't too far away, Drake gave fans three new songs, including a remix with U.K. artist Santan Dave called "Wanna Know," to hold them over until More Life's release. The new songs, "Two Birds, One Stone," "Sneakin'" featuring 21 Savage and "Fake Love" are set to appear on the December release.

On "Two Birds," Drake shouts out to Lil Wayne and takes more shots at Kid Cudi, who blasted him on Twitter. "I like your old s--t, but wasn't in love with the latest," he raps. "You were the Man on the Moon, now you just go through your phases."
