The Weeknd's XO label is already a hub of talent with the likes of Belly, Nav and now, 88GLAM. Earlier today, the Toronto duo were announced as the latest signees to the label. It doesn't come as much surprise considering they've been connected to The Weeknd and XO for quite some time. They've made waves over the months since the release of their self-titled debut. After announcing the signing, they unleash the Reloaded version of their debut project.
88GLAM comes through with 88GLAM Reloaded through XO/Republic. The project comes with all the original track with an additional four tracks including "Twin Turbo," "Celebrity Crush," "On Sight" and their incredible new "Bali" remix featuring Nav and 2 Chainz. The project also hails production Murda Beatz, WondaGurl, AlexOnWeed and VillaBeatz.
The release of 88GLAM: Reloaded comes at perfect timing. The duo will be heading on tour with NAV in a few days across the U.S. Keep your eyes peeled for that and check their tour dates here.
