Earlier this month, Lennox warned that she might be done releasing new music on Twitter, shocking her fans.
“I’m content with my discography. Wether top 40 or not. Don’t care. My heart and Soul is in every single joint that’s out. Even my SoundCloud joints,” she tweeted. “So until it feels right there simply won’t be no date on another project. So living my life is what I’ll continue doing.”
Lennox’s debut studio album, Shea Butter Baby, was released in 2019.
Cole wasn’t the only rapper to have a surprise performance, Saturday. Earlier in the day, across the country in Chicago, Machine Gun Kelly did a last-minute set at Lollapalooza.
Cole will be going on tour later this year with 21 Savage and Morray for The Offseason Tour. He’ll also be performing at Dreamville Festival in 2022.
