February is officially over starting Friday, but we still have some big artists dropping new projects to kick off March. With spring right on the horizon, here’s a list of some of new stuff that’s coming this weekend that you can add to your playlist.

After a two year hiatus, 2 Chainz is back with his fifth solo album. The Atlanta rapper announced earlier this month that NBA superstar LeBron James would serve as the executive producer on the album. It’s always a pleasant surprise when 2 Chainz drops new music.

Solange has been making some buzz on her Twitter account this week, teasing the potential release of a new album. Today it was announced that her new project will be coming out tomorrow. It’s a 19 track album and a follow up to her incredibly successful “A Seat at the Table.”
Hozier- “Wasteland, Baby!” 3/1

The sophomore album from folk rocker Hozier is set to come out tomorrow. His self-titled debut, which came out five years ago, had some massive radio play and the Irish-native soared into the mainstream with his hit “Take Me To Church.” It’ll be interesting to see if he can build off his success and avoid a slump.
Lil Skies- “Shelby” 3/1

Another sophomore album set to be released tomorrow comes from Soundcloud rapper Lil Skies. His sound fits in with the current wave of hip-hop so don’t be surprised if this new project catches fire. The rapper also announced that he will be going on tour with Lil Pump this spring.
Weezer– “The Black Album” 3/1

Not to be confused with Jay-Z, this is 100% a Weezer album. There are people out there who still believe Weezer can make a good record. I am one of those people. The band’s most recent release “The Teal Album” had the group covering classic 80’s songs, but this new release is all original music. Let’s just pray it’s closer to “The Blue Album” and “Pinkerton” than “Raditude.”
Lil Xan- “Be Safe” 3/3

The Cali rapper rounds out the weekend with his second album titled “Be Safe.” Lil Xan is dropping this project on Sunday, fresh off the news that he is expecting his first child. The album has been postponed once before, so there is a chance it may happen again, but it should still be on the radar for this Sunday.
