Rapsody is gearing up for the release of her next album, which will be her first body of work since 2019’s Eve. The critically-acclaimed effort featured appearances from J. Cole, Queen Latifah, JID, GZA, D’Angelo and more.
Talking to Hot 97’s TT Torres about the new LP recently, the Jamla artist revealed she took a bit of a new approach.

“With this album, I wasn’t as focused on what I’m necessarily known for – being lyrical and all these metaphors and similes,” she said. “It’s going to come out naturally when it does, but it wasn’t a focus. I was focused on being more profound this time. Because especially like as a woman, I would love to be a representation for women and speak for women and have a connection with women.”
She continued: “I always thought my bigger fanbase would be women but it’s not, so it was a self-reflection of, ‘Okay, what’s my disconnect? What can I grow in to have a better connection with my sisters musically?’ And so it was like, yo, just be profound.”
In October, Rapsody shared a teaser video for the album narrated by her “BFF” Darin Michelle, who sings the praises of the upcoming work.
“I just listened to your album again on the way home from the Badu concert,” Michelle said in the video. “And I just — I just needed to say that that shit is so special. It’s so, so, so special. It is like your heart on wax, and I just wanted you to know how special it is. And that’s it.”

“The hardest step she ever took was to blindly trust in who she was.” Album done,” Rapsody wrote in the caption.
