Released on Friday (June 16), “Fatha Fig Ya” bulldozes the way for the arrival of Tech’s long awaited new full-length album, BLISS, which is due out July 14.
BLISS will be Tech’s first full-length LP since the 2021’s ASIN9NE, which garnered nearly half-a-billion streams and touted his most ubiquitous hit yet “Face Off” featuring Joey Cool, King Iso, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The Strange Music mogul’s album preview comes just months after he announced in March that he had welcomed a baby girl into the world; making his release even more timely.
“HAPPY DUE DATE ALINA!” Tech wrote on Instagram alongside his daughter’s birth certificate, which revealed she was born on March 3 and weighed eight pounds and five ounces.
