The pre-order link for 6lack’s upcoming album is now available. The Apple Music pre-save page for Since I Have A Lover revealed the 19-song, 58-minute track list for the album. Including features from Don Toliver and R&B songstress QUIN, SIHAL will be 6lack’s first full-length release in nearly five years.
Additionally, the track list for the album includes pre-released singles like the title track, which dropped on March 1, and “Rent Free,” which was included in the Rent Free / By Any Means two-pack of songs from December 2021. Along with these two, 6lack plans to put out another promotional track before the official March 24 release date. But, he wants the fans to choose which song he drops.
Taking to Twitter on Wednesday (March 8), 6lack posted snippets for two different currently untitled songs each lasting around 40 seconds. The Atlanta singer-rapper asked his followers which they would prefer for him to use as his next single. Intended to release on Friday (March 10), whichever received the most fan support would win.
Although 6lack’s most recent full-length studio album came in the form of 2018’s East Atlanta Love Letter, that does not mean he hasn’t been busy. In 2020, he dropped a six-song EP titled 6pc Hot, which included a guest verse from Lil Baby on “Know My Rights.” Along with this and the aforementioned Rent Free / By Any Means two-pack, singles like “UMI Says” (2022) and “Calling My Phone” (2021) with Lil Tjay helped to hold his fans over.
However, this month will surely be more gratifying than just a single or EP release for 6lack fans. Years in the making, his third official studio album Since I Have A Lover should remind fans of his relevancy in both hip-hop and R&B circles.
