Officially unveiled just three weeks later (October 16), the star-studded set – his first LP since 2018’s ‘Dime Trap‘ – was kicked off by the Young Thug-assisted ‘Ring’ and houses collaborations from the likes of Young Thug, Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross, 21 Savage, Jadakiss, John Legend, Killer Mike, and many more.

The new song, ‘Change,’ assembles some of Hip Hop and R&B’s most prized male hitmakers of the last 25 years to bring attention to racial and social injustice.

Toplined by serial hitmakers Jermaine Dupri, Ne-Yo, Johntá Austin and Bryan-Michael Cox, the quartet of singer-songwriters and producers called on a lineup of their industry friends including Anthony Hamilton, Kirk Franklin, Common, Smokie Norful, Rotimi, Eric Bellinger, PJ Morton, and more for the charity single set to benefit the Social Change Fund.
