Tyler, The Creator – Call Me If You Get Lost
The whirlwind rollout for Tyler, The Creator’s IGOR follow-up album Call Me If You Get Lost ramped up rather quickly. After being initiated by a billboard with a call-in hotline, he delivered on music with a pair of cryptic and hilarious skits, instant fan-favorite singles “Lumberjack” and “Wasyaname.” On Thursday (June 24), Tyler amped up the anticipation of the project by revealing the stacked tracklist for the album, which includes features from Lil Wayne, 42 Dugg, Ty Dolla $ign, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Brent Faiyaz, Domo Genesis, Lil Uzi Vert, Pharrell and more.

Given the fact that IGOR delivered a No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 Chart in 2019 and a Grammy Award for Best Rap Album in 2020,Call Me If You Get Lost has a ceiling to breakthrough in order to match the years-long success Tyler, The Creator has experienced thus far.
Doja Cat – Planet Her
Doja Cat has racked up a series of impromptu wins in the months leading up to her Planet Her album, starting with her not-so celebrated chart-topping hit “Say So” last November.

And following the cosign she received from Hot 97’s on-air host Ebro Darden back in April, the news of her recent platinum certification from the RIAA for her smash “Best Friends” collaboration with Saweetie is that much sweeter for the Hot Pink singer.
Now, with the world eating out of the palm of her hand, Doja Cat has delivered her extraterrestrial Planet Her album.
Juicy J – The Hustle Still Continues (Deluxe)
Memphis rap mainstay Juicy J announced the deluxe version of his 2020 The Hustle Continues album earlier this month with the visual single for “Take It” featuring Nightmare Vacation rapper Rico Nasty and a posthumous verse from legacy Three 6 member Lord Infamous.

Logic – The Ys Collection: Vol. 1

Hanging up his Hip Hop superhero cape hasn’t proven to be easy for Logic, who announced the formation of a supergroup with veteran producer Madlib back in April, and followed that move up by dropping their collaborative “Raddest Dad” single in May.
And with the release of his official comeback single, Logic has made a full-fledged return to rap with The Ys Collection: Vol. 1 project.
Ski Mask The Slump God – Sin City The Mixtape

Following the release of his Lil Gnar-assisted “New Bugatti” single, Ski Mask springs into action days after the third anniversary of XXXTENTACION’s unfortunate death with his nine-track, featureless Sin City The Mixtape project.
Curren$y & JetLife Family – Welcome To JetLife Records 2
Curren$y is seemingly everywhere at the moment, and his recent appearance for JAY-Z’s MONOGRAM “HIGH TALES” video series underscores the extent to which the New Orleans rapper has been grinding at this level — which amounts to nearly a two-decade run.
