JPEGMAFIA has provided an update for the new year, admitting that he had to alter his plans a little but that he’s still on track to release new music in 2024.

“I apologize to my fans i promised an album to this year, the album will be out 2024. i just have to keep working, to make it as best as possible for you. Happy holidays. To all the people in my life i love and that love me. & happy new year to all, even my enemies and their ugly ass kids and families. I will see you all next.”
