The Memphis artist flexes his growth on his fourth studio album.

He's been applying pressure with each new release and on Friday (April 23), Moneybagg Yo returned with his fourth studio album, A Gangsta's Pain. Recently, photos surfaced showing Moneybagg with Jhené Aiko and it looks as if they were shooting the music video to their track "One of Dem Nights," and that collaboration, along with his "Hard for the Next" single with Future, shows that Moneybagg can offer hard-hitting bars as well as a softer side to his lyrical approach. 

A Gangsta's Pain is like pulling from Moneybagg Yo's diary as the Memphis rapper continues to open up about the highs and lows of his upbringing as well as his rising success. The Platinum-selling Memphis artist adds only a handful of features to the album including the aforementioned Aiko and Future along with Kaash Paige, Big30, Tripstar, Polo G, Lil Durk, and the man who praised Moneybagg's skills, Pharrell Williams.
