The 14-track project is executive produced by her longtime collaborator Tay Keith and features rap heavyweights Lil Baby and VonOff1700 as well as the renowned producer Mike-Will-Made-It. ‘In Sexyy We Trust’ comes two months after the release of her first single of the year, ‘Get It Sexyy’ – which also became her Billboard Top 20.

The record sees her reuniting with Drake on the soulful ‘U My Everything’, which also sees the Canadian momentarily rap over Metro Boomin’s ‘BBL Drizzy’ beat that he made to mock the 6God. Red and the ‘Nothing Was The Same’ star first collaborated on the jersey club-inspired ‘Rich Baby Daddy’. The song – which also features SZA – originally appeared on Drake’s latest album, ‘For All The Dogs’.

‘In Sexyy We Trust’ is out now via Open Shift/gamma. Check out the tracklist and have a listen below.

Explaining why he keeps working with the viral rapper, Tay Keith told Billboard: “She is just raw. It’s just authentic. She [is] from St. Louis, so it feels like we kind of bonded and started creating music out of having fun. We enjoying the times and shit. Not just in the studio locked in, we really enjoy ourselves kicking shit”.

“I feel like when it’s genuine, that’s where the hits came from,” he continued. “We got a genuine brother-sister relationship. I fuck with her heavy. We just continue to keep it going. Every time we get in the studio we make a hit.”

Sexyy Red rose to fame with her raunchy breakout single ‘Pound Town’, which later was remixed by Nicki Minaj. Her subsequent singles such as ‘SkeeYee’, ‘Hellcat SRTs’ and more also went viral on TikTok ahead of the release of her major-label debut ‘Hood’s Hottest Princess’ last June. She released the deluxe version in December 2023, which saw her work with drill pioneer Chief Keef on ‘Ghetto Princess’ and the remix of ‘F My Baby Dad’.

This year, she has only released one single – the aforementioned ‘Get It Sexyy’ – as well as collaborated with Keef on the exuberant ‘Damn Shorty’ from his and Mike-Will-Made-It’s joint mixtape ‘Dirty Nachos’. Red also jumped on Nicki Minaj‘s ‘FCTU (remix)’ alongside Travis Scott and Chris Brown.

In other news, Sexyy Red will appear on WWE: NXT tomorrow (May 28). This comes after she was seen dancing to ‘Sexy Boy’, the theme song of wrestling superstar Shawn Michaels, who is the head of creative for the developmental brand. In a tweet, she mentioned that she “might RKO somebody,” referencing the finishing move of wrestler Randy Orton.
