Three years after hitting highest rung on the Billboard 200 to date with their sophomore studio effort ‘City On Lock,’ hitmaking Rap duo City Girls unlock its highly anticipated follow-up ‘R.A.W.’

An acronym for ‘Real A** Wh*res,’ the 18-track effort – kicked off by singles ‘Good Love,’ ‘No Bars,’ ‘Pinata,’ ‘I Need a Thug,’ and ‘Face Down’ – is loaded with high-profile guest stars including Usher, Kim Petras, Muni Long, Lil Durk, Juicy J, and more.

“R.A.W. for me is whatever mood I am. So, right now, I’m a real a– working woman, because I am here working with you,” JT said about the project. “But when I get to my man, I’m going to turn into a real a– whore. And then, the next day, I might be rude a– witch. Depends on whatever mood I’m in!”
