(UPDATED) 2 Chainz Announces New Release Date & Cover Art For ‘Pretty Girls Like Trap Music’ [PEEP]

2-chainz-pgltm

Due to unforeseen circumstances the original release date for 2 Chainz new album, ‘Pretty Girls Like Trap Music’ was changed. Following a two month delay, Tity Boy and his label Def Jam have set a new release date for the highly-anticipated album of June 16th.

The former Playaz Circle rapper announced the date on his Instagram account accompanied by a video trailer. In the trailer several of Chainz’s homies and potential collaborators like Drake and Pharrell make appearances where they show love.

“You’re one of my favorite rappers of all time,” says Drake. “I say that proudly. You got the best songs.” While Pharrell chimes in with some wisdom and praise for the music.

Last year Chainz dropped a few mixtapes and this year after his original release date of April 7th was scratched he’s collaborated on a series of ‘Pretty Girls Like Trap Music’ playlists with Nicki Minaj and Blacc Chyna to name a few.

Stay tuned for more details and singles off the forthcoming album soon.


(UPDATE: 5/25 1:30 PM)

Chainz shares the artwork for his highly-anticipated ‘Pretty Girls Like Trap Music’ album just two days after announcing the release date.

The cover shows a haunted, pink bando (abandoned housing project) with thunder and tornados around it. Different shades of pink are used along the cover with the title being comprised of spray paint, a “like” emoji, and cursive writing.

Maybe Chainz will drop a new song later today to accompany the announcements.
