Fans are still waiting for Desiigner to drop his debut album The Life Of Desiigner — a record that doesn’t even have a release date yet — but it seems like the 20-year-old “Panda” rapper is already thinking about life after The Life Of Desiigner, announcing on Twitter that he has plans for a new mixtape.
The project would be called New English 2, a follow-up to the 2016 mixtape that featured the Brooklyn rapper’s megahit “Panda.” He’s has been talking about plans for his first full-length release for over a year now.
Desiigner revealed the plan and said that the mixtape would be “coming soon” when a fan referred to the original New English tape as “slept on.”
Thanks ??It Was A Mix Tape But New English 2 Coming Soon ????? https://t.co/Ha8MueRzQk

Desiigner quickly followed up this tweet with a clarification that while New English 2 is in the pipeline, it won’t be taking precedence over The Life Of Desiigner, writing, “After LOD Album I’m Dropping New English 2” and then dropping five fire emojis for good measure.
