Brent Faiyaz to Release New Album Larger Than Life With Features From A$AP Rocky, Missy

Posted by Aldo Pusey on Monday, August 12, 2024

'Larger Than Life' will hit streaming platforms at midnight.

Brent Faiyaz surprised fans with the news of a new record early Thursday morning. Dubbed “Larger Than Life,” the 14-song collection serves as the follow-up to 2022’s “Wasteland,” which peaked at No. 2 on the U.S. albums chart.

To amp up the excitement, Faiyaz uploaded a one-minute album teaser that follows a crew of men selling a box of CDs at night time and telling people that it’s “the hottest shit out right now.” Suddenly, Faiyaz pulls up in a luxury black car and asks how much the CDs are going for before telling them the price should be much higher.

According to the record’s tracklist on streaming platforms, featured artists include Coco Jones, on the already released “Moment Of Your Life,” along with A$AP ANT, A$AP Rocky, Babyface Ray, Cruddy Murda, FELIX!, Lil Gray, Missy Elliott, N3WYRKLA, Tommy Richman and TTM Dawg. The album’s artwork is a drawing of the bottom of a sneaker imprinted with “NUWO,” Faiyaz’s clothing brand, stepping on two cars.
