Muni Long Releases 'Delulu' on Def Jam

The breathy R&B ballad extends her Revenge era through viral 'delulu' slang.

Overview

  • The single arrived Oct. 17 after an Oct. 9 social announcement from Muni Long confirming the release date.
  • Song credits include co-writing by The-Dream and Tricky Stewart, with production by Stewart and Ben Parris.
  • Musically it leans into an ’80s-inspired, mid-tempo R&B palette with airy synths, gated drums, and vocal-forward storytelling.
  • Lyrically it explores romantic fantasy, obsession, and unrequited longing, aligning with themes from her 2024 album Revenge.
  • Early traction shows trending use on TikTok, X, and YouTube, while Long supports Brandy and Monica’s The Boy Is Mine Tour that began Oct. 16 in Cincinnati.
