A week after The-Dream shared the tracklist for Sextape 4, the multi-hyphenated entertainer has given fans a release date. While many artists are opting to delay their albums because of the COVID-19 quarantine, The-Dream has decided to press forward with confidence. He made the official announcement just moments ago on social media where he stated that Sextape 4 would arrive on April 17.

“SXTP4! April 17. Honestly, I didn’t want to put it out with what’s going on in the world and here!” he wrote in a caption to a post on Instagram. “I had so many people tel me , NO music is what we need right now more than ever. Love and Blessings to everyone touched by this moment in our lives. 4-17 out EVERYWHERE! @apple @Tidal @Spotify @amazonmusic.”

We learned last week that Sextape 4 would be a 13-track offering that wouldn’t have any features. The-Dream last shared the first, second, and third installment of his Sextape series back in 2018 when he released Ménage à Trois: Sextape Vol. 1, 2, 3. We can only imagine what he has in store this time around. Check out the tracklist for Sextape 4 below and let us know if you’re looking forward to new hits from The-Dream.

When 2020 first arrived, music listeners were eager to see what the new decade had in store, nothing but promise on the horizon. Though things started strong with new albums from heavy hitters like Lil Wayne and Eminem and rumored drops from J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, and Drake, the situation quickly took a turn for the worse when the coronavirus reared its ugly head. Now, with the entire rap game in self-imposed quarantine, the entire masterplan has been swiftly and decisively derailed.

Yet The-Dream has never been one to follow a script. Today, the singer –who probably wrote one or two of your favorites on the low– took to Instagram to reveal the tracklist to his upcoming album Sextape 4. The release is set to mark his first since the ambitious and erotically-charged triple album Ménage A Trois, which landed back in December of 2018. Now, he’s gearing up to unleash a thirteen-track endeavor upon us, though he neglects to provide a date. 

From the sound of some of these song titles, it would appear we’re looking at another sexually-charged dose of R&B from one of the game’s sharpest songwriters. Check out the tracklist below and sound off — are you looking forward to a new album from The-Dream?
