Artist: 6LACK Ft. Young Thug
Song Title: Ashin’ the Blunt
Genre: R&B / Hip-Hop
Release Date: 2026
Atlanta’s own 6LACK links up with rap heavyweight Young Thug for a smooth and atmospheric new single titled Ashin’ the Blunt, serving as a fresh taste of his highly anticipated upcoming album Love Is The New Gangsta, due May 22nd.
The track is a masterclass in mood-setting — built on a hazy, introspective production that perfectly blends 6LACK’s signature brooding R&B sensibility with the unpredictable and melodic energy Young Thug brings to every feature. The beat creates a late-night, winding-down atmosphere that feels cinematic and deeply personal at the same time.
6LACK leads the record with his trademark velvet vocal delivery, navigating themes of isolation, superstar loneliness, and the search for genuine love with raw vulnerability and emotional depth. Young Thug complements beautifully, sliding into the record’s mood with effortless fluidity and his signature abstract lyricism that somehow always lands exactly right.
Together, the two Atlanta natives create undeniable chemistry, making Ashin’ the Blunt feel like a natural pairing that has been a long time coming. The record is reflective, textured, and emotionally layered — the kind of song that rewards repeated listens.
With Love Is The New Gangsta just around the corner, Ashin’ the Blunt is a strong and compelling appetiser that confirms 6LACK is arriving with something special.
