The third New Music Friday of September is the busiest release date of the month so far. While the previous week was relatively lowkey with just a few notable projects, this week is overloaded with a wide array of artists delivering albums, mixtapes and EPs.

Hip Hop fans are provided with a heavy dose of collaborations, led by Moneybagg Yo joining forces with Blac Youngsta. Other pairings include Curren$y and Harry Fraud; Kamaiyah and Capolow; and Dee-1 and Murs.

The latest slate of projects also boasts the return of Lil Tecca and Armani Caesar’s Griselda Records debut. Caesar was originally supposed to drop her album in August but postponed it due to the death of her mentor DJ Shay.
