6LACK had a major 2017 with the success of Free 6LACK. So much so that he ended up having to postpone a tour because his music career was getting in the way of focusing on fatherhood. The singer took a bit of a hiatus but dropped off four new songs towards the end of last year in celebration of the one year anniversary of his debut album. Today, he comes through just in time for Valentine's Day with his first release of 2018.
6LACK returns with his new single "Cutting Ties." 6LACK continues to push forward with his dark blend of R&B and hip hop on this track. It's not necessarily in the expected spirit of Valentine's Day but it is fitting for the occasion.
Now, we wait on his next album.
Quotable Lyrics
One, two,
Been thinking long and hard this morning
Three, four,
It's hard to focus when a n*gga on it
