French Montana is all set to drop the fifth installment of a mixtape series that goes back almost a decade and a half.
On Friday (November 24), the Moroccan-American MC revealed the release date for Mac & Cheese 5 on social media. Scheduled for a January 5, 2024 drop, the project will build on a string of projects that began with 2009’s Mac Wit Da Cheese.
Alongside a teaser trailer, he wrote: “Mac n cheese 5 january 5th [calender emoji, exclamation-mark emoji] LETS FINISH WHAT WE STARTED [newspapaer emoji] This one for the books ! [wave emoji, surfer emoji] #freemaxb #foreverchinx.”
In the second slide of his Instagram post, French previewed one of his new songs and its music video, with him saying: “Hard life… excuses gon’ make today easy but tomorrow hard… discipline gon’ make today hard but tomorrow easy.”
French Montana hasn’t released a new project since Coke Boys 6 back in January, though he has been dropping hints about releasing new material for a while now.
Last month, the “Lockjaw” rapper took to Instagram to tease some new heat with Lil Baby and suggested that the pair were ready to drop a “monster” of a hit. As of now, it isn’t clear when the song will be out.
“What the streets been waiting for,” French wrote in the caption. “MONTANA x lil BABY just cooked up a monster #comingsoon Cb | 4pf.”
In August, he teamed up with Swae Lee to drop “Wish U Well,” a follow-up to their 2017 mega hit, “Unforgettable.”
Swae Lee kicks off the bouncy tune with his signature falsetto, singing: “Come tell me everything/ If it bothers you then it bothers me/ Restore my trust, replace my faith.”
French then takes the baton for a smooth transition: “The top disappear like Houdini/ Gucci socks on don’t G me/ Tell ’em we got yachts if they fishin’/ Crib, three islands in the kitchen/ Cool like the breeze in Jamaica.”
