Bryson Tiller is gearing up to return with a new self-titled album. This will mark his fourth studio album and it is scheduled to release this April via RCA Records. The rapper also announced that he will be going on an album tour later this year.
Bryson took to Instagram to officially announce the album with a post that showcased the cover art for his upcoming album. The caption on this post read:
"Excited to announce that my self-titled album Bryson Tiller"
Bryson Tiller will be released via all major DSPs (Digital Streaming Services) on April 5, 2024, and will follow up on his previous project, Anniversary, which released back in 2020.
Everything we know about Bryson Tiller's self-titled album
Bryson has been releasing music consistently on SoundCloud for the past couple of years as part of his Slum Tiller mixtapes. These Volumes have been garnering significant attention and this pushed for the release of his first single Whatever She Wants, which dropped on all DSPs last month.
Although these mixtapes were released separately, it appears that a lot of his new music will dive into similar themes of relationships, love, success, wealth, and luxury. It is possible that the production of his new project will incorporate a blend of Trap, R&B, Rap, and Pop music elements, which seem to be a new sound Bryson has curated in his Slum Tiller mixtapes.
On March 12, Bryson announced an official "album release party," where he previewed his fourth studio album for an exclusive audience. The same was held on March 13 at The Highlight Room in Los Angeles, California.
On March 19, fans got a glimpse of the first look at the Bryson Tiller project when the Grammy-nominated artist posted an album trailer on Instagram. The trailer features a news presenter explaining the impact of being overly reliant on Artificial Intelligence and the many dangers of the digital world. The news program suddenly cuts off to show Bryson in a lab coat seemingly working on a yellow robot while on a call with a woman.
The woman begins to panic as Bryson continues his experiment. She highlights sci-fi movies as a reason for him to stop his project since most films in this genre showcase how ideas don't work out as planned.
It's later revealed that the robot is a fully functional replica of Bryson that was invented to be superior to all previous versions he's created. He also refers to this project as "BTAIV" (a possible acronym for Bryson Tiller Album Four) when he states:
"We did it. We finally fu*king did it. They counted this out for years man uh...Check him out though bro. He's perfect. I sure hope so cause this is version five. I thought version one was perfect and he wasn't. Can't wait for you guys to meet him."
The caption of his post confirmed that he's been working on this project for the past three years. The rapper also announced that he would be releasing the second single from the upcoming album soon.
Several hours later, he dropped a song titled CALYPSO on all streaming platforms. The rapper also released an official visualizer for this song on his YouTube channel.
Although Bryson has yet to unveil the final tracklist of the album, it is certain that Whatever She Wants and Calypso will be included as part of the record.
