Multi-platinum recording artist A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie has officially revealed his highly anticipated sophomore album, HOODIE SZN, via Highbridge The Label/Atlantic Records. The album includes recently released tracks, "Look Back At It" and "Startender (feat Offset & Tyga)," and sees guest appearances from Don Q, Tekashi 6ix9ine, Juice WRLD, Queen Naija, Young Thug, PnB Rock and more. HOODIE SZN was executive produced by Quincy "QP" Acheampong, Sambon "Bubba" Camara and Artist Julius Dubose (A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie).

Last night, the BET Awards 2018 nominee for "Best New Artist," celebrated the release of his new album with an exclusive album listening session for select fans in the NYC area at Jungle City Studios. The night saw appearances from Highbridge labelmate Trap Manny, fellow artist Melii and more.

A Boogie is set to headline the upcoming Monster Energy Outbreak Tour, "A Boogie Vs Artist." The 27-date trek - also featuring special guests Don Q and Trap Manny - kicks off February 20th at Emo's in Austin, TX and then visits major markets across the nation including Atlanta, GA, his stomping grounds of New York, NY, Chicago, IL and Los Angeles, CA before wrapping in Vancouver, BC at the Commodore Ballroom. Tickets for The Monster Energy Outbreak Tour, "A Boogie Vs Artist," are now available for purchase. For details please visit www.outbreakpresents.com and www.aboogiehbtl.com.

His latest project, INTERNATIONAL ARTIST was introduced this summer and quickly drew critical applause from such high profile media outlets as Rolling Stone, which praised Boogie for possessing "a talent for appealing melodies and memorable flows that's more creatively compelling than his peers. Pitchfork further hailed Boogie "distinctive and honest, both to his city and his story. Though his music doesn't embody the New York of rap's past, he has brought a much-needed fresh take as a prominent figure on the city's vanguard."

Named by The New York Times as "the most promising young rapper the city has produced in some time," A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie first made waves with his 2016 mixtape, ARTIST, breaking out the next year with his Highbridge, The Label/Atlantic Records major label debut, THE BIGGER ARTIST. The album - which debuted at #1 on Billboard's "Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums" chart upon its September release while also entering at #4 on the overall SoundScan/Billboard 200 - quickly earned gold certification by the RIAA, fueled by such hit singles as the platinum certified, top 40 smash, "Drowning (WATER)," featuring Kodak Black. In addition, the track's companion visual has drawn over 48 million individual views.
