Destroy Lonely Drops Five New “Love Lasts Forever” Songs On His Website

Destroy Lonely isn’t done. The rapper blessed fans with his sophomore album, Love Last Forever, on Friday. The album had over 20 songs, including three bonus cuts. More than enough to keep fans fed for the foreseeable future. Destroy Lonely decided to drop yet another batch of songs on Tuesday, though. Well, sort of. The rapper put out five bonus tracks, but they are only available to purchase as part of the Love Lasts Forever V2 order on his personal website.

The bonus tracks in question do not include features. Given how few rappers appear on the standard edition of the album, though, this should come as no surprise. Destroy Lonely’s new titles include “The Bounce,” “Make a Sound,” “See You Tomorrow,” “Meet the Boss” and “Bling.” They raise the tracklist count to an impressive 26. The digital download price for the album is $5.00, but it’s only been made available to fans who live in the U.S.

Destroy Lonely’s Deluxe Version Is Billed As “V2”

Destroy Lonely is constantly recording. He claimed to have hundreds of unreleased songs during a 2023 interview with Hypebeast. He also voiced a desire to release them to the public at different points, given how important each song is to him. “I hope I’m able to release it all to the world one day,” he said. “Every song I ever made is a diary entry. Some of them are sent to the world and some of them I keep to myself.” Destroy Lonely also revealed that he makes longer and shorter tracklists for each album he puts out, which almost certainly was the case with Love Lasts Forever.

“I’ve had like three, four, five different tracklists for every project I’ve ever made,” Lonely admitted. “I was ready to let people hear those songs. I elevated them to a point where it made sense to release them.” Destroy Lonely isn’t the only artist who has decided to bypass streaming platforms in the last few months. Drake has found success with his 100 Gigs website. Travis Scott, meanwhile, has made a ton by selling Days Before Rodeo variants on his own website.

Roc Marciano & The Alchemist Deliver Deluxe Of “The Elephant Man’s Bones”

Last year, Roc Marciano and The Alchemist collaborated for one of 2022’s best rap albums: The Elephant Man’s Bones. For the lyrically-minded and for fans of abstract production, this project filled pretty much every niche and desire. In addition, the duo bolstered it with excellent features from Boldy James, Action Bronson, Ice-T, and Knowledge The Pirate. However, they weren’t quite done with it just yet, and they realized that there’s more to share from his fitting, chemistry-filled, and creative team-up. With two new bonus tracks, the underground legends graced us with The ALC Edition of this album, fitting for a 2023 revamp.

Furthermore, now’s the perfect time to tune into Roc Marciano’s latest if you missed it last year. These new bonus tracks represent everything that made The Elephant Man’s Bones such a compelling LP, and The Alchemist doesn’t slouch in the slightest. “DNA” opens with a menacing bassline and string arrangement, providing fertile ground for the New York MC to stomp on with vivid and twisted hunger. Conversely, the dreamy synth pads and chill, perky rhythms on “Turkey Wings” offer Marciano’s verses a more nostalgic and laidback context.
