Kevin Durant had a hand in making Drake's eighth studio album, "For All The Dogs."

The Phoenix Suns star is credited as an A&R (artist and repertoire) on the album, released early Friday morning. The role of an A&R includes working with artists on honing their craft, choosing the right songs to record, and helping to promote their music, according to Nikola Iliev of Forbes.

Durant also received a name-drop on the album, with Drake rapping, "Me and KD 'bout to turn up the art" on the track "All The Parties."

This isn't Durant's first foray into music production. He previously served as an executive producer on rapper T-Shyne's 2022 album "Confetti Nights."
