Single Off Album "Really Really"

2nd Single "2Phones"

3rd Single "Kno One"

Kevin Gates is about to drop his debut album, Islah, later this month, and today the Baton Rouge rapper has shared the official tracklist for the project. Among the 15 tracks on the LP are singles "Really Really," "2 Phones," and "Kno One".
The most surprising takeaway from the tracklist is the lack of features. It's possible that the guest appearances are simply yet to be announced, but the image Gates shared on his Instagram does look a whole lot like the back cover of the album, so he could easily be doing the whole thing solo.
Gates explained the inspiration for the title in a press release. “ISLAH means to reform, to improve, to make better, and I believe that’s what my first daughter did to me. So I named my first album after my first daughter; because it improved me, it made me better.”
Check out the tracklist below. Were you hoping for some features, or does this format fit Gates best?
NOT THE ONLY ONE
REALLY REALLY
2 PHONES
PRIDE
LA FAMILIA
TIME FOR THAT
THOUGHT I HEARD (BREAD WINNERS’ ANTHEM)
HARD FOR
ASK FOR MORE
ONE THING
THE TRUTH
KNO ONE
TOLD ME
AIN’T TOO HARD
I LOVE IT

This coming from someone who knew of Kevjn Gates since Phat Phat and all of that (Im a Grinder) since like 08, and always bashed him,
Kevin Gates is the most talented street rapper out. Dude really progressed well. Outside of his insanse ? he say, dude is really talented, and does not get the credit he deserves.

THOUGHT I HEARD (BREAD WINNERS’ ANTHEM)
Track bangin...
Album is different from the usual mixtape Gates but still fire -
I might actually buy an album 4 the 1st time in about a decade.
Nah I'm lying. Somebody inbox me the album download when it surfaces. Thanks in advance. -
Not bad. Better than I thought it would be. If you like Future, Young Thug, and new ? like them I don't think you can say you don't like this album.
