He posted some pictures of him in Denmark and a hype video of his Hamburg show, but it seems like the New York MC is missing someone.

As he previously teased, Lil Tjay is officially in album mode, although it seems things have changed in his life since his last update. Moreover, he recently posted some pictures of him in Denmark, plus a TikTok of a hyped crowd watching him perform in Hamburg, Germany. However, his caption hints at him missing a special someone by his side, which might just motivate him even more to bring fans heat. "I USED 2 WANNA CEE THE WORLD WIT YOU… ALBUM MODEEEE," he captioned his slideshow. Maybe that's just to build conversation around his drop, and if so, it's certainly working.

Amid his European tour, many of his rap peers gassed him up in the comments, like Scorey and PGF Nuk. What's more is that the hinted heartbreak might even be a reference to some of his earlier material. Furthermore, in the chorus of his track "In My Head," he raps, "These feelings been stuck in my head, ain't too big on love, but with you, I'm all for it. See the world, me and you, we can tour it." As such, whether it's a direct reference or not, maybe he'll take a different thematic approach to love on his album's new cuts.

Lil Tjay Hints At Being Disappointed, But Excites Fans With Latest IG Post

However, that doesn't mean that the New York MC is completely averse to love at this point- or that he dodged rumors of a romance between him and Ice Spice. For those unaware, these speculations sparked when he gifted his "Gangsta Boo" collaborator a Richard Millie watch around Valentine's Day. Even though many fans were excited about a new Big Apple couple, sources close to Spice said that it was just a gift to celebrate their collab. Of course, the song saw massive success, so it is worth a $150K time reader, but the timing ironically suggested something deeper.

Meanwhile, that caption could also refer to friends in his inner circle not being around anymore, albeit for very different reasons. Recently, the 21-year-old exposed someone in his camp for snitching on him. Whether it's for heartbreak or betrayal, at least Tjay seemed to distract himself from those feelings with a great tour around Europe. Regardless, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Lil Tjay and his next album.
