Young M.A finally announces debut album, shares "PettyWap 2" video

It’s been over three years since Brooklyn rapper Young M.A took the world by storm with her breakout single “OOOUUU,” and though she’s stayed active since then with an EP, various singles, and live shows, her anticipated debut album continued to get delayed. So it’s exciting news that now it’s finally announced, and coming out next month.

It’s called Herstory In The Making, and it’s due September 27 via M.A Music/3D. Young M.A is releasing the album on the tenth anniversary of her brother’s untimely passing due to gun violence, and she says, “There isn’t a single day that I don’t think about my brother. He continues to motivate me; inspire me & this project will forever be dedicated to his legacy.”

She continues, “You’re gonna get the truth. You’re gonna get the cocky joints, the slick talk joints where I talk my talk, but then I’m gonna get personal. Real personal. That’s why this album is called Herstory In The Making, because it’s about all sides of me.” She also adds, “People will hear this album and say, “I had no idea she was going through all that, I don’t put myself out there on social media. I save it for the music, and I write it all. This is all me.”

Production comes from Zaytoven, Mike Zombie, Amadeus, NY Bangers, Kofi Black, and Tone Bird, and guests include Relle Bey and Max YB. It includes recent singles “BIG,” “Bleed,” “Stubborn Ass,” “Car Confessions,” and “PettyWap,” and there’s also a bonus track called “PettyWap 2,” which is out now along with a new video.
