Lil Baby<\/a> has revealed that he has cancelled his much delayed album Dominique<\/em> in favor of a new project entitled The Leak$<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Atlanta rapper was originally supposed to drop Dominique<\/em> back in February but the album has still yet to materialise and has now pivoted to The Leak$<\/em>.<\/p>\n

On Instagram, Baby posted a date that is next Friday (15 August) as well as a picture of a whiteboard for a project clearly titled The Leak$<\/em>.<\/p>\n

There are 17 songs on the tracklist and also seemingly features from Playboi Carti, Skooly and Veeze.<\/p>\n

It is not yet known if the songs are new material or a compilation of tracks originally intended for Dominique<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Baby hit out at his music being released online without his permission<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Atlanta rapper wrote: \u201cDamn yall just gone keep leaking my songs !!\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans had been waiting for Baby to drop\u00a0Dominique<\/em>, which was originally planned for release back in February.<\/p>\n

Baby previously said that the album would show a different, more personal side of his persona.<\/p>\n

He explained: \u201cJust more heartfelt and more direct with talking about certain subjects. I just was damn near warming up again [on WHAM], and Dominique is more strategic. Dominique is more of a grown sound. Lil Baby is something I created. But I kind of grew out of that stage. WHAM is [a persona] I created, and Dominique is [a persona] I created.\u00a0WHAM<\/em>\u00a0is in the middle of Lil Baby and\u00a0Dominique<\/em>. So\u00a0Dominique<\/em>\u00a0going to be like the more 30-year-old me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Baby added: \u201cI initially was going [to drop] the self-titled album [first], but I had to backtrack because even though I\u2019ve grown and I had a dramatic change, I ain\u2019t really bring the fans along with me. So they don\u2019t really know what I went through or what I\u2019m going through.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cDum, Dumb and Dumber\u201d star continued: \u201cSo to just go from Lil Baby to\u00a0Dominique<\/em>, I feel like that would\u2019ve been too big of a jump for them. So I had to come back and tighten it up a little bit and ease their way into it. It\u2019s two different albums, but something like a double album.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
