Rich The Kid's been plotting on the release of his follow-up to The World Is Yours for a minute. In January, the rapper revealed the 80s inspired artwork for the project but didn't share a release date. As he dropped off his single, "4 Phones" earlier today, Rich The Kid also announced the project's release date.

Rich The Kid's new project The World Is Yours 2 is set to arrive on March 22nd, 2019. The rapper made the announcement via Spotify Canvas, which, as Complex pointed out, makes him the first mainstream rapper to make use of the Spotify tool. The release date for The World Is Yours 2 comes a few days short of the one year anniversary of his major label debut, The World Is Yours.

Rich The Kid kicked off the campaign for his new album in December when he released the song, "Splashin" which is presumably the first single off of the project. Over the course of 2018 following the release of The World Is Yours, the rapper released a ton of one-off singles such as "Leave Me" and "Nasty."

Earlier this year, the tracklist to the project was posted to Migos Twitter before being quickly taken down. The tracklist featured the newly-released, "4 Phones" as well as "Splashin."

Keep your eyes peeled for Rich The Kid's The World Is Yours 2 dropping next month.
