Ok guys Intern Esther here! So there’s already been a ton of music releases lately with artists like Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Wale, Bryson Tiller and more but summer ’17 is just beginning! There is just too much good music to keep track of so here is a list of 9 album releases set for summer ’17 to be on the lookout for.
1. 2 Chainz ‘Pretty Girls Like Trap Music’
Release Date: June 16
Ok 2 Chainz really hit the nail on the head with this title. I can’t believe I just used the ‘hit the nail on the head’ idiom. But he really did! I’m just going to go ahead and put myself in the “pretty girl” category as all of us females should because, why not… and… I really do like trap music! 2 Chainz is probably my favorite rapper to get “ratchet” to and dance to in the clubs with friends and I can’t wait to hear some summer hits:)
2. Vince Staples ‘Big Fish Theory’
Release Date: June 23
I’m gonna be honest I don’t know much about Vince Staples but if his newest single “Big Fish” is any representation of his album, I will definitely be listening to it.
3. Dj Khaled ‘Grateful
Release Date: N/A
We’ve all been seeing the memes on instagram about DJ Khaled waiting for the “Vocals” to come in from artists like Drake and Rihanna so you KNOW this album is gonna be fire!
4. Travis Scott and Quavo
Release Date: N/A
There have been rumors of this collaboration for a while and I am here for it! Quavo and Travis Scott have both hinted at the collaboration and that it may be a surprise drop. Let’s hope sooner than later!

5. Jay Z
Release Date: N/A
The “King of New York” hasn’t come out with an album for four years but there’s been some hints of an upcoming album. He’s had a lot going on with wifey’s ‘Lemonade’, preparing for twins and beef with Kanye so I’m sure he had plenty to talk about. Either way, it’s Jay Z so we’re here for it!

6. Calvin Harris ‘Funk Wave Bounces Vol. 1’
Release Date: June 30
Can’t wait for this album to come out! Always brings the hits to the music scene and you can be sure there will be some fire artists on his new album.
