6Lack Shares New Single Ahead Of Long-Awaited Third Studio Album

Atlanta, native 6lack has on Wednesday, 1^st March shared news regarding his forthcoming third studio album via a press release. The new album according to the release is set to drop on Friday, 24^th March 2023 via Atlanta based record label Love Renaissance (LVRN) and Interscope Records.

In the video for his first single off the album titled Since I Have a Lover, 6lack is seen falling from the sky then crashing into a home which happens to be engulfed in flames while proceeding to sing the lyrics to the new record from inside of it finding his way out and levitating onto a street where everyone seems to be going about their day. The video takes a different turn towards the end when the people on the street join 6lack high up in the sky.

In a statement by the singer, he describes the song as “a note to self that I’m no longer who I was or where I was, and that there’s a bigger purpose starting to reveal itself in the things I create.” According to him, the track is reminiscent of the highs of having a healthy love, compressed into a song format.

With short verses and a chorus embodying more of a feeling than lyrics, described by the singer as an exhale, a relief, signifying trust, happiness and being surreal, the single is a precedent to an album that is set to house conversations about mental health, healing, personal growth, love and his personal journey of finding his way – both good and bad.

This album comes as a follow up to his five-year-old sophomore album East Atlanta Love Letter.
