21 Savage Sets Dec. 12 Release for "What Happened to the Streets?"

The sparse rollout hinges on a cryptic Instagram trailer, with the tracklist, features, and singles all still under wraps.

Overview

  • An Apple Music pre-save lists the project at 14 songs, with none available to stream ahead of release.
  • 21 Savage first hinted at the drop with a terse “Friday !” post on X before the date was confirmed for Friday, Dec. 12.
  • A new black‑and‑white teaser on Instagram trails a shadowy target through an alley and ends with the album announcement.
  • The title’s acronym, WHTTS, was previously spotted on an Olaolu Slawn inflatable installation during Art Basel in Miami.
  • The album follows American Dream, which debuted at No. 1 in January 2024 with 133,000 units, as 21 kept a light 2025 release schedule aside from select features such as Summer Walker’s “Get Yo Boy.”
