Fans have been waiting patiently for Steve Lacy’s third studio album since he dropped Gemini Rights back in 2022. In May of this year, however, he indicated in an Instagram post that the wait wasn’t over quite yet. “I aint dropping another album till yall go appreciate [Gemini Rights] like yall needed to,” he wrote at the time.
Fortunately, it appears that now, the highly anticipated album is finally on the way. During a recent chat with Rolling Stone, Lacy confirmed that the project is titled Oh Yeah? Reportedly, it’s slated for release in the “near future.”
“This one has taken a lot of time and thought,” he said of the album. “I keep using the word ‘design.’ It feels like fully designing a new language for myself.”

“I got humbled a couple times,” Lacy added. “So now I’m like, ‘stop trying to sequence the f**king music and just write the songs.'” At the time of writing, a release date for the upcoming album has yet to be revealed.
This is far from all Lacy discussed during the interview. He was also asked about Drake dissing him during a stream with xQc last November. “This guy’s like a fragile opp — it is a good song, though,” the Toronto artist said upon hearing Lacy’s music. “Chat knows what I’m talking about. Fragility.”
He continued, “I was like, ‘This is so beautiful.’ Like, yes, I didn’t know what it meant. No one, no one knew what it meant. … And then Fousheé sent me a link and it was the video and I was like, ‘Whoa.’ I was so excited… I f*cked with it. It was cool.”
