Along with teasing fans with “Queen Space” – a record that will also reside on her sophomore album, Ari surprised her fans with the stunning cover art for age/sex/location. Beaming majestically, Ari lies across a water stream, eager to step into the next chapter of her music career. In a recent post from Dreamville superstar J. Cole, Ari breaks down her dating path in 2022 and acknowledging this part of her journey as her “eat pray love” moment. Ari’s upcoming effort, age/sex/location, will be released on Sept. 9 via Dreamville/Interscope Records. Pre-order the album HERE.
Age/sex/location serves as the hotly anticipated follow up to Ari’s acclaimed 2019 debut, Shea Butter Baby. The project, now with over 1.3 billion global streams, spawned major hits: the RIAA platinum-certified title track, featuring Dreamville label head and marquee artist, J. Cole, the fan-favorite, gold-certified singles “BMO” and “Whipped Cream,” and “Up Late,” whose intimate video drew praise from ESSENCE, Noisey, Pitchfork, and Billboard. Awards recognition capped off the debut era, with nominations at the Grammys (for her contribution on Dreamville’s album, Revenge of the Dreamers III), three 2019 Soul Train Awards, and two 2020 NAACP Awards.
