Dave East hasn't slacked one bit since he dropped his major label debut, Paranoia: A True Story. Since then, the rapper's collaborated with a slew of artists including Lil Uzi Vert and Gunna and also released two new projects. At the tail end of December, the Harlem spitter linked up with DJ Holiday for the Karma mixtape. Now, the rapper is getting ready to drop the sequel to the 2017 project.

Dave East announced that he'll be dropping his new mixtape, Karma 2 next week. The rapper didn't share an exact release date but it's exciting to know we're going to have a new project from him in the coming weeks. On Karma, the rapper enlisted Chris Brown, Kap G, Offset, Moneybagg Yo, Don Q and more. It's unsure who he'll have featured on this but hopefully, we see East go bar for bar with some worthy emcees in the game.

Last week, Dave East dropped two new songs. While one of them was a response track to Tray Pizzy's diss track towards East, the Harlem native also linked up with Rick Ross for their track, "Fresh Prince Of Belaire." It's unsure whether that collaboration will land on Dave East's forthcoming Karma but we could only hope he has other major names joining him on the project's tracklist.
