AllMusic[1]

My Life 4Hunnid is the fifth studio album by American rapper YG, released on October 2, 2020, by 4Hunnid Records and Def Jam Recordings. The album features guest appearances from D3szn, Lil Wayne, Chris Brown, Tyga, Lil Tjay, Tay2xs, Gunna, Ty Dolla Sign, Calboy, and Lil Mosey.

Background[edit]

The title is a reference to the 400 block of West Spruce Street in Compton, CA, where he grew up.[2][3]

On the album's cover art, YG is wearing a red shirt with the album's title written all over it and a red light is shining on his body. This is due to the fact that the rapper is closely associated with the Bloods street gang, in which they wear the color red.[4]

Singles[edit]

YG released the album's lead single, "Laugh Now Kry Later!", on May 1, 2020, alongside the official music video. The album's original title was supposed to be the same name as the single.[5] The second single, "FTP", which stands for "Fuck the Police", a protest single supporting the protests related to the Black Lives Matter movement, was released on June 2, 2020, in coincidence with Blackout Tuesday.

Commercial performance[edit]

In the United States, My Life 4Hunnid debuted at number four on the US Billboard 200 with 64,000 album-equivalent units, which included 40,000 pure album sales (a majority of which were paired with bundles from his 4 Hunnid clothing line).[6]
