Lil Tecca's "Dopamine"
Lil Tecca released his latest album, Dopamine, back in June 2025. The project contained a single guest feature from Ken Carson and peaked at No. 3 on the US Billboard 200. During an interview with Billboard at the time of its release, Tecca explained that Grand Theft Auto: Vice City served as a key inspiration for the album.
"Yeah, Fever FM and Flash FM! Flash FM had all those discos vibes on it. I was just looking for soundtracks originally, and then once I stumbled on the Vice City soundtrack I just stuck with it throughout the process," he said.
After sharing Dopamine, Tecca embarked on "The Dopamine Experience" tour across North America. It ran from September through November 2025.
