Hip hop album releases of 2024 have been great so far, but we’ve got 6 more months to look forward to!

This year has been amazing not just for hip hop but for music in general. A lot of big names have dropped their projects, and the hip hop world was set ablaze by the Kendrick, J. Cole, and Drake beef. It’s been a good year for music fans, but it ain’t over yet.

It seems like 2024 has been blessed by the music gods, as it just keeps on giving. Here are the five most anticipated album releases of 2024!

5: A$AP Rocky

A$AP Rocky is gearing up to release his brand new album, which is probably already done by now. In a social media video a few weeks ago, Rocky was seen holding the vinyl for the album, which means it’s likely done and set to release. And yes, we do have a release date: August 30th! Now we just hope Rocky sticks to this date.

4: Drake

Yes, Drake. And I know he just dropped a very lengthy album recently, but we’ve gotten a new Drake record almost every year for the past few years, so what’s different about 2024? Drake might release something this fall. He really needs to take control of the discourse surrounding him, as Kendrick has done some serious damage to his image during their beef.

3: Ice Spice

Ice Spice blew up and is now one of the biggest female rappers in the game. She currently seems like she’s leading the charge. Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, and Megan Thee Stallion look uninteresting at the moment, which gives Ice Spice the opportunity to go even bigger with a full-length album!

2: J. Cole

A J. Cole album seems unlikely this year, but not completely out of the picture. J. Cole just dropped a project, and he was also involved in the Drake and Kendrick beef. Plus, he keeps mentioning his next album named “The Fall Off,” so who knows, this fall, J. Cole might drop something.

1: Playboi Carti

Carti has been teasing new music every new year, and this time around, it felt like he would drop something. Apart from a few singles, which he didn’t even bother putting on Spotify, we have not gotten any updates about a Carti album. But it feels like he might be onto something; he has switched up his style and cadence significantly, so maybe he’s cooking up something new!

There you have it, the five most anticipated hip hop album releases of 2024. Let’s see what the rest of the year has in store for us music fans!
