Lupe Fiasco, who just released his fifth studio album Tetsuo & Youth earlier this year, took to Twitter on Sunday (Dec. 20) to announce his next release Drogas — the first of what he says will be three “full album releases” in 2016. Tetsuo & Youth marked the final album under his contract with Atlantic Records, a working relationship that often wound up in the headlines.

This announcement comes on the heels of another album announcement from the Chicago rapper, who alluded to a sequel to his critically-acclaimed sophomore album The Cool just a few days prior.
