Young Thug to Release 'Slime Season 3' Mixtape During Super Bowl Weekend

In December, Young Thug's go-to videographer, Be El Be, revealed that Thugger’s Slime Season 3 would possibly be released close to New Years. The expected release date has come and gone, but Thug recently announced something more concrete. He revealed that the project will drop during Super Bowl weekend.

On Monday (Jan. 25), Thug took to Twitter to share the Feb. 5 release date. And for those who missed the announcement, he reiterated the upcoming date on Be El Be's Instagram. "February 5, b*tch, be ready. Stay ready. Super Bowl weekend." he said.

Earlier this month, Thug offered up a glimpse at the project’s cover art as well as a preview of his remix of Jeremih's “Pass Dat,” which will likely be featured on SS3.

At the top of November, Thug released his Slime Season 2 mixtape. The 23-track long project also features Lil Uzi Vert, Trouble, Shad Da God and Yak Gotti. Others like London on da Track, Wheezy, TM88 and C4 contributed on the production side. The tape followed Thug's September mixtape, bearing the same name.

SS2’s predecessor included features from Lil Wayne, Quavo, Offset, Gucci Mane and PeeWee Longway. Thug first announced a follow-up to Slime Season just two weeks after its September release.

Aside from his forthcoming mixtape, fans have also been anticipating Thug’s debut album, Hy!£UN35, as well as his collaborative project, MigosThuggin, with the Atlanta trio. No word on when to expect Thug’s album, which has been postponed since September, but Offset recently detailed the hold up with MigosThuggin, saying that 300 Entertainment CEO Lyor Cohen is holding the project back.

"Lyor froze it, man," he said. "We couldn't, we can't do it right now... That was gonna be a big project, too, but Lyor blocked the play. He ain't with it. He ain't stamp it. So we couldn't go through with it."
