Talk about a momentum killer. After scoring a <a href="http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/rae-sremmurd-covers-fader-news.22086.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cover story</a> from The Fader and dropping a video in preparation for the launch of their SremmLife 2 album next week, their album has been delayed. And not just by a couple of weeks – their sophomore effort will now be releasing on August 12.
This is a huge bummer for everyone who was looking forward to having <a href="/profile/rae-sremmurd" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Rae Sremmurd</a> soundtrack their summer escapades. It is unclear what caused the surprising delay, but our bet is it has to do with a surprise feature or sample clearance issue. Hopefully someone from their camp clears things up in the meantime.
The album will feature <a href="/profile/JuicyJ" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Juicy J</a>, <a href="/profile/LilJon" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Lil Jon</a> and the rising <a href="/profile/kodakblack" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Kodak Black</a>, among others. Just last week they appeared on a <a href="/profile/peewee-longway" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Peewee Longway</a> <a href="http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/peewee-longway-jam-on-em-feat-boody-jay-and-rae-sremmurd-prod-by-mike-will-made-it-new-song.1970176.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">joint</a>, and their “<a href="http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/rae-sremmurd-look-alive-video-new-video.37721.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Look Alive</a>” video dropped on Monday. If you haven&#8217;t already, now&#8217;s your chance to pre-order the album on <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/sremmlife-2-deluxe/id1104588126?at=1000lvbZ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">iTunes</a>.
