Surprise! Jhené Aiko is back. The Grammy-nominated singer announced her Westside Whimsy album on Tuesday (Sept. 8). While it’s been more than six years since her last LP, fans won’t have to wait much longer, as the project is set to arrive on Friday (Sept. 11).
“Westside Whimsy (THE ALBUM) out Friday,” Aiko captioned the post alongside the album’s cover art, which features a photo of the singer crying crystal tears.
