FREE 6LACK is Atlanta rapper 6LACK’s debut album after numerous singles. The album follows record label and identity issues and is 6LACK’s first major release through record label LVRN. Released on the 25th of November 2016, the album title and a rough date were released via instagram on the 11th of October 2016. The photo appears to be of a black BMW sprayed with “FREE 6LACK” down the entire side of the car. Judging by the wheels, this would likely be a E46 BMW 3 Series. A similar vehicle, possibly the same one, appears in an earlier post on the 15th September 2015, flipped and wrecked in a field. This was over a year before the album was even teased by 6LACK. The album features two singles initially released on Soundcloud, “PRBLMS” and “Ex Calling”. These became the artist’s most popular releases from the album. 4 days before the album’s 1 year anniversary, 6LACK released 3 new tracks, as bonuses: “One Way” ft. T-Pain, “In Between” ft. BANKS and“Glock Six”. On January 28, 2018, FREE 6LACK was nominated at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards for Best Urban Contemporary Album. FREE 6LACK peaked at #34 in the Billboard Hot 200 and peaked at #6 on the R&B charts.
