Fridayy Announces Release Date For Self-Titled Debut Album
‘Fridayy’ will arrive on September 25 via Def Jam Recordings.
Fridayy has announced the release date of his long-awaited debut self-titled album, Fridayy, set for release August 25 via Def Jam Recordings. The album announcement follows a string of early singles including the gospel inspired love ballad “When It Comes To You,” and “Don’t Give It Away,” both of which were released earlier this year.
On “When It Comes To You,” Fridayy sings, “I done gave my heart to you, fell in the deep end/ You done came into my life while I was sinkin’/ I been on that type of time with demons/ All the time I was outside, I was creepin’/ It was love at first sight, girl, when you walked in/ Couldn’t look deep in your eyes ’cause I’d get locked in.”
The track continues an exciting era for the artist. Just a week after closing out the 2023 Grammy Awards in historic hip-hop fashion in February, Fridayy shared the touching visual for his song, “Momma.”
In what can only be described as a heartfelt dedication to his mother, we witness Fridayy purchase his mother the ultimate gift of a new home to show his appreciation for all she has done for him and his siblings. Opening the video, we meet Fridayy’s mom as she discusses how the highly-sought producer/songwriter promised in a song that he would purchase her a new home one day, as the Philly native takes through a tour of his humble beginnings including his makeshift bedroom studio.
It is in this same space, that the first generation Haitian-American crafted the life-changing single, “God Did” for DJ Khaled featuring Jay Z, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, and John Legend, which he performed with the crew of hip-hop royalty to close out the 2023 Grammy Awards.
“Momma” was featured on the newly released deluxe edition of Fridayy’s debut EP, Lost In Melody. This special edition featured four new tracks unique to the project along with the remix to his single “Blessings,” which features rising Afrobeats star Asake.
