Smino has released his new album, Maybe in Nirvana, just days after announcing it on Tuesday. Stream it below via Apple Music or Spotify.
Marking the follow-up to his acclaimed 2022 album, Luv 4 Rent, the project doesn’t have as many high-profile features. However, Bun B contributes a guest verse and there’s production from longtime collaborator Monte Booker as well as Kenny Beats and Thundercat (who also sings on “Hoe-nouns). Plus, there are reunions with Ravyn Lenae and Reggie.
In a statement, Smino elaborated on the care that went into Maybe in Nirvana, which is built around themes of love, self-discovery, and resilience. “This project is me exploring my own nirvana — my peace, my chaos, and everything in between,” he said. “Every song is a piece of me that ties into the bigger picture. I wanted to make something that feels limitless, like it could live outside of time.”
Smino hasn’t shared any plans for hitting the road in support of the album, but stay tuned for updates about the inevitable 2025 tour.
