Lil Baby's Fifth Album, Fresh, Arrives Friday With 17 Tracks

Lil Baby's fifth studio album, Fresh, is out on Friday, 6 November, with 17 tracks. The release date was confirmed on 21 October in an announcement from Universal Music Canada, and the album is the follow-up to WHAM, which came out in February 2025.

WHAM reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200, the main US chart that ranks albums by sales and streams. Fresh carries on from it with a mix of guests. "All My Partnas" features Future, Young Thug and Rylo Rodriguez, and "In Your Head" features Rylo Rodriguez alone.

The album includes the single "Dead Fresh", produced by Pharrell. The song peaked at No. 18 on the Billboard Hot 100, the chart that ranks individual songs. Pharrell first played it in June during Louis Vuitton's Spring-Summer 2027 Men's Show, a fashion event in Paris. An official video for the track came out in 2026 under Quality Control Music, with an exclusive licence to UMG Recordings, the Universal label group.

Lil Baby's chart record is already long. He has 160 titles on the Hot 100, 13 of them in the top 10, and nine titles on the Billboard 200, four of which reached No. 1.

His previous mixtape, The Leaks, debuted at No. 17 on an all-genres album chart. In its second week it climbed from No. 25 to No. 1 on Billboard's Top Rap Albums chart, which made it his fifth consecutive leader on that list.

Fans can order ahead. The 17-track album is available for pre-order, and signed vinyl and CD editions were offered as well. Pre-orders are sold before release day, so buyers receive the album as soon as it is out, usually on the physical or digital date set by the label.

Lil Baby marked the moment on Instagram, writing a note that thanked everyone who had played a part in bringing the album to life. Behind any album are producers, engineers, designers, and the staff who plan the marketing, and that note named them in its opening line. The official album trailer, which the artist posted on his YouTube channel, had already set 6 November as the date.

For listeners, the next step is simple. The album goes on sale and streaming services on Friday, and the chart positions for the week will follow in the coming days.
