Late last month, Moneybagg Yo took to Instagram to announce that his much-anticipated album, “Speak Now,” would be delayed. Originally set for release on May 24, fans were crestfallen to learn they’d have to wait until June 14. However, the rapper quickly reassured everyone that the delay would be worth it.
In an Instagram post, he revealed, “Just Got A Crazyyyyy Feature In I Couldnโt Drop This Project Without. Now Everything Locked In Fasho sho Its Worth Da Wait๐๐๐ฅ.” While he kept mum about the specifics, the suspense ended when it was announced that Lil Durk would feature on the album.
Once again, Moneybagg Yo hopped on Instagram to share some exhilarating news about the collaboration. The rapper couldn’t contain his excitement, praising the Chicago artist for his quick turnaround. “Dat N***a @lildurk Sent Me A Verse Back In Less Than 20 mins Of Me Sending It To Em Da Night Before I Had To Turn My Project In And Its 1 of Dem Classic Day 1 Smurk Verses ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฃ๏ธ๐ฃ๏ธ,” wrote Moneybagg Yo. The post included a screenshot of their text exchange, underscoring the mutual respect between the two artists.
“Speak Now” follows the release of Moneybagg Yo’s recent single “Play Da Fool.” It’s also coming ahead of another album that promises “Melodic Vibes” for his female fans, although no release date has been set for that project.
With “Speak Now” set to release on June 14, fans have every reason to be excited about the promised “classic” verse from Lil Durk. Judging by the buzz and Moneybagg Yo’s own enthusiasm, it looks like this collaboration is poised to be a highlight of the album.
