Metro Boomin has been evidently missing from the rap game this year, but it doesn't come as a shock since he announced his retirement in April. Earlier this month, mysterious billboards began popping up, reading, "Have You Seen This Man?" Now, the multi-platinum producer has announced that he has a new project dropping.

Metro Boomin took to Twitter to announce his new project, Metro Boomin Presents: Not All Heroes Wear Capes. Although he didn't reveal a release date for the project, many speculate that it might be dropping tonight since Halloween marks the one year anniversary of his joint project with 21 Savage and Offset, Without Warning. His tweet also ended with three jack-o-lantern emojis which he tweeted out earlier today.

All three artists have teased a possible sequel to their collaborative effort since this morning, although it could've been merely been a coincidence. 21 Savage tweeted, "1130" which has been interpreted as either the release date for his own project or the time of when something could drop tonight. 

While Metro simply tweeted three jack-o-lantern emojis, Offset tweeted, "D O N T T R U S T Y O U," in reference to Young Metro's beat tag. Either way, we hope that this means that Metro drops a new project tonight.

Throughout this year, Metro appeared on a handful of tracks. He landed production on Lil Wayne's Tha Carter V and also "All For Me" off of Belly's new project, Immigrant
