XXXTENTACION's "Skins" album drops this Friday.

One of the worst tragedies in hip-hop this year was the loss of XXXTENTACION. The Broward County rapper had a massive impact in the rap game within a short span of time, but unfortunately, we didn't see X reach his full potential as an artist. His family recently announced that his first posthumous album, Skins would arrive before the end of the year. As we approach the album's release, his estate has shared the official tracklist for the project.
