Don Toliver season is upon us. The rapper is gearing up for the release of his next body of work, Lovesick, marking his official follow-up to Life Of A Don. He’s unveiled a few singles over the past year but this week, he’s geared up for his official release, providing fans with a glimpse of what to expect. Last year, he dropped off “Do It Right,” which built up excitement. But, for the most part, he’s relied on guest appearances to drum up anticipation.
This week, he officially kicked off the rollout for the upcoming effort. Don Toliver and his partner, Kali Uchis, delivered their latest collaboration, “4 Me,” just a day after Valentine’s Day. This record, in particular, contrasts what they delivered on “Drugs N Hella Melodies.” The upbeat, breezy record sampled Beenie Man’s “Girls Dem Sugar,” produced by the Neptunes, and showcased the range that Kali Uchis and Toliver carry as collaborators.
Don Toliver Shares “Leave The Club” ft. Lil Durk & GloRilla
Lovesick might be Don Toliver’s most ambitious project to date, especially in his mission to create a sound that captures “futuristic R&B and soul.” While “4 Me” delivered a sense of early 2000s nostalgia, he came through with a muddy banger to follow up with “Leave The Club” ft. Lil Durk and GloRilla. Don Toliver’s back in a warped, drug-fueled soundscape for a banger that splits into two. Durk comes through in the first half, accompanying Toliver on a spacey, trap-centric beat, before GloRilla’s gritty flow takes control in the second half.
Don Toliver’s forthcoming project Lovesick will drop on Friday, Feb. 24th. The rapper announced the release date along with the new single. He hasn’t shared the tracklist yet but the pre-save link confirmed Lovesick will consist of 16 songs, including the previously released singles, “4 Me,” “Do it Right,” and “Leave The Club.” Check out the new single above and sound off with your thoughts in the comment section below.
Quotable Lyrics
Smurk, Richard my arm
I can’t fuck a bitch who said some slick shit to Don
No cash on me, I just had a scammer get a room
Innocent in the club, but she wanna try shrooms
Uh, I want a cougar, thirsty to leave, I’ma hop in a Uber
If you ever heard I fucked your friends, that’s a rumor
