Welcome 2 Collegrove is a collaborative studio album by American rappers 2 Chainz and Lil Wayne .[6] It was released on November 17, 2023, through Def Jam Recordings .[7] It is the sequel to 2 Chainz' third studio album ColleGrove (2016), which was originally planned to be a Lil Wayne duet album; he could not be co-credited due to label issues.[8] [9] It features guest appearances from 21 Savage , Usher , Fabolous , Benny the Butcher , Vory , Rick Ross and Marsha Ambrosius .[10] [11]

The title is a portmanteau of 2 Chainz' and Lil Wayne's hometowns. 2 Chainz is from College Park , Georgia , while Wayne hails from Hollygrove, New Orleans .[9] The release was led by the single "Presha ", released on October 20, 2023[12] and produced by Bangladesh .[7] The album was originally set to release on the same day as Nicki Minaj 's Pink Friday 2 ;[13] however, Minaj later pushed that album's release date further back to December 8, so her vinyl preorders would be shipped in the first week.[14] The album was originally believed to be released on November 2, 2023[citation needed ] but Wayne said that was "not tru[e ]".
On October 27, during an episode of Young Money Radio on Apple Music , the pair debuted two new songs in "Long Story Short" and "Oprah and Gayle"; both are confirmed to appear on the album.[10] The second single from the album, "Long Story Short", was released November 10.[15] The third single from the album, "Transparency " was released November 17.[16]
Composition [ edit ]
Welcome 2 Collegrove is a hip hop and Southern hip hop album.[2] [1] According to AllMusic 's TiVo Staff "Narrative skits and quick shifts in production styles give the album a mixtape feel".[3] Thomas Galindo of American Songwriter said that in comparison to their previous collaborative album, on Welcome 2 Collegrove Lil Wayne and 2 Chainz "opted for more of a mixed bag of approaches".[4]
