Home to singles ‘In Your Hands,’  ‘Braveface,’ ‘Because I Love You,’ ‘Back and Forth,’ and the GRAMMY-nominated ‘Angel‘ – ‘Love?’ has seen its original 15-song tracklist expanded to 20 thanks to a newly arrived deluxe edition.

While the original iteration of ‘Love?’ boasts an all-female list of superstar guests including Mariah the Scientist, Chloe Bailey, H.E.R., and GloRilla, the deluxe sees the addition of some R&B testosterone courtesy of GRAMMY-winning crooner Lucky Daye.
