\n\tJack Harlow<\/a> has a birthday gift for his fans this year. The Louisville native announced Tuesday (Feb. 10) that his fourth studio album, Monica, is set to arrive March 13, which is Harlow\u2019s 28th birthday.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMonica. My new album. Available everywhere on my birthday, March 13th,\u201d Harlow wrote on Instagram. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe post was accompanied by the LP\u2019s cover art, which features a motion-blurred image of the \u201cLovin on Me\u201d rapper with his eyes shut while rocking a pair of shades and a brown cap tilted to the side. <\/p>\n

\n\tFans excitedly hopped into the comments, welcoming the return of Missionary Jack, while others wondered who exactly Monica might be. Former NFL star Victor Cruz and New York Knicks big man Karl-Anthony Towns hyped the announcement with emoji comments as well. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe sonic direction of Harlow\u2019s next endeavor remains unclear, but a press release reveals that the 27-year-old recorded the album at the famed Electric Lady Studios in New York City following his move to the Big Apple. Plenty of music legends have made Electric Lady home during their careers, including Lady Gaga,<\/a> Taylor Swift <\/a>and Stevie Wonder. <\/a><\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s possible Harlow\u2019s time recording at Electric Lady overlapped with Lorde <\/a>when she was working on Virgin. During an Apple Music interview<\/a> with Zane Lowe last year, Lorde recalled Harlow being wowed by her songwriting after playing the album for him. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cJack Harlow was working at Electric Lady when we were there towards the end of the record and somehow ended up getting most of the album played to him,\u201d she explained. \u201cIt was a very funny, cool link. He\u2019s such a sweetheart. But he was like, \u2018Your bars are\u2026 These are bars!\u2019 I was like, \u2018Your words, not mine.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile Monica will arrive March 13, vinyl pre-orders are now available to order the LP on Harlow\u2019s website. <\/a><\/p>\n

\n\tHarlow has remained quiet on the music side for the better part of a year, as his most recent single, \u201cJust Us,\u201d was released last March, featuring an assist from Doja Cat.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s been nearly three years since Jack Harlow\u2019s last album. Harlow released Jackman in April 2023, which reached the top 10 of the Billboard 200<\/a> (No. 8). <\/p>\n
