Yeat’s ambitious new double album is here.
ADL, which stands for both A Dangerous Lyfe and A Dangerous Love, is a double-disc effort that serves as a follow-up to 2024’s Lyfestyle, the rapper’s first album to top the Billboard 200 album chart. The album features appearances from the likes of YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Elton John, Kylie Jenner as King Kylie, Kid Cudi, Grimes, and Don Toliver. The production is handled by a wide variety of artists, too, including BNYX, Dylan Brady, Synthetic, and Swizz Beatz.
In a recent interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, Yeat stressed that this is the body of work he’s the proudest of so far. “The album itself is definitely the first album of my career where I'm putting a lot of real, real effort into the album itself,” he told Lowe. “Before, when I made '2 Alivë,' 'Up 2 Më,' all these albums, that's part of the reason why they did so well and why people resonate with them, because you could just feel the authenticity of me just firing them out and just me being in my bag, me being hungry. I want it. You could feel it.”
In the interview, he also spoke about collaborating with Kylie Jenner on a track, which is something he admitted even he didn’t see coming. He said that he was able to get the collaboration set up through mutual friends, but it was never something he felt compelled to do to get more eyes on the album. Elsewhere, he told Lowe about his relationship with Drake, whom he previously collaborated with for the No. 2 Hot 100 single “IDGAF.”
