Rapper Priddy Ugly has announced the date for the release of his final album DUST.

Taking to his X timeline on Wednesday, he shared the album cover and details on his last body of work. 

“[DUST] — The Conclusion. The last & final Priddy Ugly album. Thank you to all the artists & creatives involved, I couldn’t have done it without you. Pre-Order: Friday, October 27. Release Date: January 26 2024,” he announced.

The rapper recently released a statement explaining Dust  would be his final album. 

“It's been 15 years. That's three albums and three mix tapes. That's five EPs, 500 features and thousands of verses, Millions of minds blown (that's word to my pen). That's a whole wife and daughter, some homies gained, some homies lost, some bruised egos and a whole lot of love, some wins, some losses, some horns, some crosses,” read the statement. 

In a separate post he wrote several messages on his timeline, detailing his journey. 

“This last stretch of making music has been made completely daunting and it’s not coming from the audience. Creating the music has been organic and seamless, everything else has been very challenging. It has completely sucked the eagerness for me to want to keep doing it in this way.

“I’ve had to be my No 1 fan, my biggest motivator and source of inspiration. The artists and producers I’ve created with really fuelled my energy when my spirit was completely depleted. The conversations had and love shared boosted me in times where I was literally fighting for my life.”
