Jhené Aiko's third studio album, Chilombo, is officially getting a deluxe edition that will be in our hands later this month. The dreamy singer took to Twitter on Friday (May 8th) to announce that Chilombo (Deluxe) would be arriving sometime in May. In the same tweet, she also shared the new cover art for the deluxe edition, which shows her facing the camera head-on, rocking some dark eye makeup with black roses styled into her braids. This new artwork is stylistically quite different than the original cover, which possesses a much brighter colour palette and sees a bare-faced Jhené angling away from the camera.

Lil Baby gave fans a little taste of the upcoming deluxe version of his album, My Turn, while he served as one of the guests on the inaugural episode of Lil Wayne‘s new Beats 1 show, Young Money Radio. The premiere of the Young Money founder’s new radio show on Friday (April 26th) was pretty successful, with a stacked lineup of guests such as Travis Scott, Babyface, and Jessie Reyez joining him to discuss music and life in quarantine. Wayne previewed two news songs off his upcoming Funeral deluxe album, one with guest Jessie Reyez and one with absentee Tory Lanez, but he wasn’t the only one giving fans a sneak peek at an unreleased deluxe track.

Lil Baby was also invited to join Wayne on the Apple Music show during a segment on the show called Wayne’s World, dedicated to updates about artists and new music. He decided to play a snippet of a new song from the deluxe edition of his sophomore album, My Turn, which dropped in February.

Wayne was definitely feel this new joint from Lil Baby, at one point exclaiming in awe, “You gotta catch your breath! He ain’t even take a breath!” Lil Baby dropped another song the day prior to his Young Money Radio appearance called, “All In,” which will also be featured on My Turn deluxe, out May 1st.

What do you think of this sneak peek?

Moneybagg Yo is officially dropping a deluxe edition of his most recent album, Time Served, and it’ll be here before you know it. The Memphis rapper first released the album back in January, marking the third studio album of his career following 2018’s Reset and 2019’s 43va Heartless. With features from artists like Future, DaBaby, Lil Baby, Blac Youngsta, Summer Walker, Fredo Bang, and even Moneybagg’s ex-girlfriend, Megan Thee Stallion, the album was met with relatively positive reception, even peaking at No. 3 on the Billboard Top 200 chart.

For over a month now, Moneybagg has been teasing a deluxe version of Time Served, insisting that it was on the way. However, fans had yet to receive a concrete release date until now. Moneybagg took to Instagram on Friday to make an exciting announcement about Time Served Deluxe, and to apologize for the long wait.

“Time Served Deluxe: May 15th,” he wrote on a photo of the new cover art, which features a darker backdrop and red roses instead of black. “After This I Ain’t Slowing Up !! #Sorry4TheWait.” While fans may have to wait another three weeks to hear these deluxe tracks, it’s sure to be worth it.

Are you excited to hear the deluxe version of Time Served?

Lil Uzi Vert is an open book. The rollout for Eternal Atake entailed Uzi sharing all his whims on Twitter and then acting on them. Considering how constrained by label issues he appeared to be in the past, it's exciting to see Uzi maneuver as he pleases. However, the release of his long-awaited sophomore album has also largely involved the input of his fans. The Philly rapper has been interacting with them on Twitter for this past week, hyping them up and answering questions. 

The Eternal Atake rollout is not over. The same day as its surprise release (Mar. 6), Uzi teased that the album's deluxe version is on the way. He tweeted all the artists he hopes to bring on board asking if they're ready. The list included Future, Lil Baby, Young Thug, and A Boogie wit da Hoodie. While he selected these guest features himself, he's seeking the advice of his fans regarding which songs should be added to the tracklist.

Fans are pulling inspiration from Uzi's previously previewed and leaked songs. One in particular that was heavily requested is "Myron", which was teased in a video of Uzi dancing to it back in 2018. It's produced by Working On Dying and had surfaced online under the title "Bonnie & Clyde". It was proven that "Myron" will finally gets its official release in a video Uzi just shared recording his ad-libs for the track. Uzi has also taken the suggestion of including "Jellybean" (aka "Kobe Rollie"), which boasts production by Pi'erre Bourne. 

On January 17, Mac Miller‘s estate released his first posthumous album, Circles. The beautiful project was intended to serve as a companion to Mac’s 2018 album Swimming, which came out a month before he passed away from a fentanyl overdose in September. Circles was arranged and completed by revered film composer Jon Brion, whom Mac had developed a close relationship with while working together on Swimming.

When Circles first released, it was written in the description for the vinyl copies being sold through Mac’s official webstore that they would include two new songs that did not appear on the standard version.
