Roddy Ricch & Terrace Martin Will Blow You Away With “Lonely Road”

Roddy Ricch has some fans questioning just what the heck is going on right now. Today, the California rapper was supposed to deliver his long-awaited third studio album, THE NAVY ALBUM. However, that is not the case, as instead he let fans know across his social media platforms that it will be ready by 2025. “THE NAVY ALBUM 🐺 2025.” There was additional explanation as to why this is now the case, but Apple Music says it will be out on February 21. The project is going to contain 16 tracks, and interestingly, “911” is not listed as one of the singles.

Instead, “Survivor’s Remorse” and “Lonely Road” with producer Terrace Martin are the only certified inclusions. The latter is essentially an apology for the album not arriving today, but it’s much more than a consolation prize. In fact, we feel this could be Roddy Ricch’s best song yet. This future closing track hears him continue on similar themes from “Survivor’s Remorse” about his growth and struggles. However, instead of feeling uneasy at times, he’s thankful for the obstacles he’s gone through. Turbo also has his imprints on this cut, but it’s not what you traditionally get from him. Roddy expressively and passionately spits over a drum-less beat with Martin absolutely killing with the saxophone. It blew us away and we feel it will do the same to you.

“Lonely Road” – Roddy Ricch & Terrace Martin

Quotable Lyrics:

Been a whole lot of choices, I been hearin’ Satan
He been speakin’ in voices, I’m tryna forsake him
Been on a lonely road so long (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Still tryna find my way back home (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Doggy, these streets got me scarred (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Streets got a n**** wondering, when will my day come?

Roddy Ricch Unexpectedly Delays ‘The Navy Album’ Right As It Was Supposed To Be Released

Roddy Ricch has made December his own in recent years: He released his hit debut album Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial on December 6, 2019, then dropped Live Life Fast on December 17, 2021. He was set to keep the streak going with The Navy Album, which was scheduled for release today (December 6).

However, it appears something has happened, as today is the 6th and there’s no sign of Ricch’s album. It turns out the project has been officially delayed: In an Instagram post shared early this morning, Ricch posted the project’s cover art and wrote, “THE NAVY ALBUM [wolf emoji] 2025.”

Apple Music currently lists the project as having a scheduled release date of February 21, 2025. The page also reveals the album will have 16 tracks, including “Survivor’s Remorse” and the just-released “Lonely Road.”

Back in June, Ricch told Apple Music about The Navy Album, “I mean, I feel like I’m just getting back to my roots of taking my time, being real lethal with my injection, if I will. Just trying to really just give it everything I got and being vulnerable as I can to my fans, allowing them into my life. They going to get a real experience, almost like a soundtrack, a movie experience of what my life is like. I’m really excited, bro.”

Roddy Ricch Has Guardian Angels In His Grateful ‘Lonely Road’ Video With Terrace Martin

After spending a few years out of the spotlight in the wake of the lukewarm reception of his second album, Uproxx cover star Roddy Ricch has returned with The Navy Album. With songs like “Survivor’s Remorse” setting the tone earlier this year, Roddy continues in a spirit of gratitude in the video for “Lonely Road” featuring fellow LA-area resident, Terrace Martin.

While Martin lays the scene with a mournful sax solo, Roddy contemplates how far he’s come and prays for protection as he continues to pursue his dreams. The video makes his prayers literal, surrounding him with guardian angels as he drives through the neighborhood where he grew up and ranges out into the wider LA area.

As a Compton native, Roddy has been loving the Los Angeles Renaissance that has taken place in 2024, celebrating the success of Tyler The Creator’s Chromakopia and joining Kendrick Lamar on his own surprise album, GNX, appearing as a guest star on “Dodger Blue.” In addition, 2024 marks the fifth anniversary of the release of his chart-topping debut album, Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial. So, as his new album drops, Roddy will be celebrating the anniversary with a special concert at the Palladium in Hollywood.

Roddy Ricch Will Continue His End-Of-Year Trend With ‘The Navy Album’ Coming In December

Over the past few years, December has been Roddy Ricch season. He released his chart-topping debut album Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial on December 6, 2019, then followed it with Live Life Fast on December 17, 2021. Now, he’s getting ready to keep the streak alive.

Last night (October 29), Ricch gave Tyler The Creator a shout-out over his new album, Chromakopia, tweeting, “CHROMAKOPIA [fire emoji] ! @tylerthecreator WEST UP , MY TURN !” A few hours later, he followed that up with, “THE NAVY ALBUM THE 6TH OF DECEMBER.”

Ricch might be looking for The Navy Album to be a bounce-back project. Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial was No. 1 and so was the hit single “The Box,” but he didn’t manage to replicate that success with Live Life Fast. The album only managed a No. 4 peak on the Billboard 200 chart, and the closest thing to a hit single it produced was 2021’s “Late At Night,” which peaked at No. 20 on the Hot 100, and is actually his most recent single to even appear on that chart.

In his 2022 Uproxx cover story, Ricch discussed his biggest takeaway from the first part of his career, saying, “A lot of times, you may get distracted by trying to rekindle relationships with different things. I feel like just what I learned is just sometimes, even if it’s broke, sometimes it’s just better not to deal with certain things or don’t let certain things bother you — everything’s not going to be perfect. Sometimes when you sit down and think about a lot of sh*t, you try to make everything perfect, and I feel like the thing I learned is it’s okay to not be perfect. There’s perfect in imperfection.”

Roddy Ricch Updates His Fans On Where He’s Been On Soulful Lead Single “Survivor’s Remorse”

“2024 is PERSONAL not business 🕴🏽”. Those were the words of Compton, California multi-hyphenate Roddy Ricch via his Instagram just over 24 hours ago. After a strong run in the latter half of the 2010’s, especially with Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial, it seemed that he was going to be one of the new faces of pop/trap rap. Unfortunately, the quality took a dip on the subsequent releases LIVE LIFE FAST and Feed Tha Streets III. Based on his brand-new single Survivor’s Remorse, it is clear that Roddy Ricch has heard the narrative that he has fallen off.

Imagine if I had a dollar for every time you say I fell off, I’d be a billionaire“, he raps on the first bar of his second verse. In addition to addressing the doubters, he gives some evidence as to why he has been laying back. “Roddy really anti, they took it pеrsonal, what the f*** was I supposed to do? / I been goin’ through child support / A good daddy, I vouch for it“. It was recently reported that Roddy’s ex-partner, Alexandra Kiser, did not feel that the rapper was there enough for their now three-year-old son.

Listen To “Survivor’s Remorse” By Roddy Ricch

“He has been arrested on a gun charge, domestic violence and regularly indulges in promethazine use, all of which are concerns for myself and our son”. Unfortunately, Roddy is still going to hear the noise from unforgiving fans about the lack of production. However, fans are seeming to love “Survivor’s Remorse” so far and they should. Production wise, it is gorgeous, with elegant piano melodies that give us flashbacks to “War Baby”. Also, Roddy turns a crisp vocal performance, and you can tell he has dealt with a lot mentally. With The Navy Album on the way, fans should be thrilled for what Ricch has coming.

Roddy Ricch had a huge debut album era with Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial: The project went No. 1 and spawned the chart-topping single “The Box.” Since then, he’s come through with the 2021 album Live Life Fast and the 2022 mixtape Feed Tha Streets III. Now he’s ready to add to his legacy once more, as he is gearing up to launch a new era.

On Instagram yesterday (May 30), Ricch shared a new image gallery, photos of him wearing a suit and blankly looking at the camera. He wrote, “2024 is PERSONAL not business.” He also indicated his next project is called The Navy Album by sharing on his Instagram Story a post from a fan page declaring, “The Navy Album era has begun.”

In his 2022 Uproxx cover story, Ricch spoke about his biggest takeaway from the first chapter of his career, saying, “A lot of times, you may get distracted by trying to rekindle relationships with different things.

Roddy Ricch Reveals New Era With “The Navy Album” Announcement

Roddy Ricch is an artist who has been through a lot over the last few years. Overall, he delivered one of the best albums of 2019 with Please Excuse Me For Being Anti-Social. The album was absolutely incredible and contained some of the best pop-rap songwriting of the year. However, with subsequent projects like Live Life Fast and Feed Tha Streets III, fans felt like something was missing. It subsequently led to some people proclaiming that Roddy Ricch had fallen off.

In today’s day and age, fans are too fast when it comes to calling the downfall of an artist. It has been proven over and over again that one song is all it takes to get an artist back in the good graces of fans. Given Roddy’s track record when it comes to writing hits, there is no doubt that he still has a lot of gas left in the tank. In fact, the artist is ready to show that as he recently took to social media with an announcement. Later this year, he will be dropping off a new project called The Navy Album.
