Babyface Ray Announces New Album & Drops“Nigel Sylvester”
Babyface Ray has announced his new album Unf*ckwitable II, out next Friday, November 13th. It follows his 2021 EP Unf*ckwitable, his debut EMPIRE release and the project that marked the start of his national rise. Unf*ckwitable II includes features and collabs with the legendary 13-time Grammy-winning artist Babyface, plus Veeze, 42 Dugg, Peezy, Babyface E and more. Today Ray shares a new track and video, “Nigel Sylvester” w/ Veeze. In the video, Ray and Veeze attend a meeting of Dope Boys Anonymous, a support group for people who can’t stop being dope. Sitting in a circle, the two Detroit mainstays take turns opening up about their struggle. The album includes previously released singles “Ghetto Symphony” w/ Peezy & King Hendricks and “Nothing.”
| The album bridges the five years since Unf*ckwitable, a run that made Ray one of the defining voices of Detroit rap. His 2022 debut album FACE debuted at No. 31 on the Billboard 200 and No. 1 on Heatseekers, with features from Pusha T, Wiz Khalifa, G Herbo and Yung Lean. He followed it that December with MOB, then Summer’s Mine (2023), The Kid That Did (2024) and the double album Codeine Cowboy (2025). Along the way he earned a Platinum plaque for “Ron Artest” w/ 42 Dugg along with Gold certifications for “Real N*ggas Don’t Rap,” “What Business Is” and “Family > Money.” Ray was named to the 2022 XXL Freshman Class and YouTube Music’s Black Voices Fund class, and made his live TV debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon performing “Masterpiece.” On the road, he’s headlined sold-out national tours, played Rolling Loud, Made In America and Wireless, joined Travis Scott’s Circus Maximus tour, and took his 2026 run with 42 Dugg across the U.S. and Europe. Unf*ckwitable II is his declaration of everything he’s built since, the sound of an artist at the height of his powers. Photo credit: @thurldidit |
