Meek Mill has shared what is presumably the finalized tracklist and features for Expensive Pain, his full-length follow-up to 2018’s Championships.

In a handwritten note initially shared to his Instagram Story, the Philadelphia artist gave fans a look at the sequencing, as well as the team he’s assembled to tell his latest story. Guests confirmed in the note include Lil Durk, Lil Baby, Kehlani, ASAP Ferg, Young Thug, Lil Uzi Vert (who recently hit the Fallon stage with Meek for a “Blue Notes 2” performance), Giggs, Vory, Brent Faiyaz, and Moneybagg Yo.

The album is set to hit streaming services on Oct. 1. On Wednesday, Meek shared a photo of himself holding the handwritten tracklist, alerting fans that the album was officially finished and promising they could expect songs of a “super flames” quality. Ferg later hopped in the comments to share his agreement.

Ahead of the album’s release, the cover art has been spotted at various landmarks and in major cities across the country. New York-based artist Nina Chanel Abney is the creative voice behind the artwork, having recently shared to Instagram a video of the full piece being unpackaged:

With 2018’s Championships—which opens with a dash of Phil Collins—Meek scored a Grammy nomination. Expensive Pain sees the artist returning to the full-length format, again outfitted with a veritable assortment of fellow artists.
