The album is due to arrive six years after he released the 2018 album ‘Testing’. Since releasing that album, the rapper has dropped several one-off singles, including ‘Babushka Boi’, ‘Same Problems?’ and most recently featured on Free Nationals’ ‘Gangsta’ alongside Anderson .Paak.

In other news, the rapper told fans in February that Rihanna was at work on her ninth album. However, the singer earlier this month said that she’s “starting over” on the record. Her last album came in the form of 2016’s ‘Anti’.
