Aside from a guest spot on E-40’s “Ain’t Talkin Bout Nothin'” track, Vince Staples has been relatively quiet on the music front in recent months. Evidently, that’s about to change.
On Monday (October 29), the Long Beach native headed to his social media accounts to announce a new project was on the way.
“GOOD MORNING CITCH,” he wrote in all caps. “WE GOT NEW VINCE STAPLES THIS FRIDAY.”
