To make up for a few delays, Wale pushes the release date up a week and gets his ‘SHiNE’ on with his long-awaited, fifth studio album.
The album which was supposed to be released next Friday, May 5th was released a week earlier after the rapper surprised fans by announcing at a Genius annotation and listening event that he would be releasing it today.
Folarin grabs Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, Travis Scott, Major Lazer, G-Eazy, WizKid, J Balvin, Davido, his babygirl, Zyla Moon, and others as collaborators on the 14-track album. ‘SHiNE’ also includes one of last summer’s hottest songs, “My PYT”.
Wale spoked to The FADER about his follow-up to 2015’s ‘The Album About Nothing’ saying, “I want you guys to feel like, ‘I always want to play SHINE when I’m going or out or coming from the club or going through a breakup or when I’m talking ’bout who’s the nicest rapper.’ I might fall short, but that’s the goal. That that’s feeling I want to give.”
In support of the album, Wale will be embarking on his “SHiNE Tour,” beginning May 5th in Atlanta. Stream ‘SHiNE’ below via Apple Music.

Wale has a lot of things going for him like a new born baby girl, his ‘SHINE’ album on the way, and just being overall blessed. He gathers Afro B and Sneakbo to showcase how they “Stay Winning” on the new track produced by Team Salut. Listen below.

Wale has been one of the hardest working, most-consistent artist in 2016. Earlier this year he released his mixtape ‘Summer on Sunset’ and apparently there’s more where that came from as ‘Today…I Got Time!’
The 3-track playlist is loaded with material that prove his upcoming ‘SHINE’ album is close to being ready and will be something special.
The first track “Brightseat Road Freestyle” is my favorite of the three and provides that vintage Wale sound, that is reminiscent of his ‘More About Nothing’ mixtape.
On the “Heel/Face Freestyle,” he declares war on fake bitches, takes a shot at Donald Trump, talks foreign policy, his baby mama and calls himself Malcolm X.
“Solbiato Freestyle” offers some thoughts on police brutality and racial inequalities.
Listen to all 3-tracks below.
