Soulja Boy hasn't lacked one bit this year. On top of venturing into the tech world, he's still maintained a busy schedule with music. Over the course of the year he released five mixtapes and now, he's returned with his sixth, Swag 2. The rapper's latest project includes the single, "Headlights" which he released last week. Swag 2 includes features from Lil B, who he's collaborated with on numerous occasions in the past, and YBN Almighty Jay.
The 15-track set serves as the official follow-up to October's King. The rapper also released Young Drako, No Sleep, Best To Do It and SouljaYayo.
Last month, Soulja Boy announced that he signed a new deal with eOne Entertainment. Over the past few years, he's been grinding heavily as an independent artist. With the amount of music he's released over the past year, we're interested to see what he has up his sleeve for 2019. Peep his new project below.
