The-Dream Announces 'Sextape IV' Release Date

While fans are cooped up at home, The-Dream is giving them another Sextape.

The R&B king is moving forward with plans to release the fourth installment in his Sextape series. Taking to Instagram, he announced that Sextape 4 will arrive at major streaming services on April 17. After debating whether to release it during a global pandemic, he decided that now was more the right time than ever.

“SXTP4! April 17. Honestly, I didn’t want to put it out with what’s going on in the world and here!” said The-Dream. “I had so many people tel me , NO music is what we need right now more than ever. Love and Blessings to everyone touched by this moment in our lives. 4-17 out EVERYWHERE!”

He previously teased the tracklist, which includes 13 songs with provocative titles such as “Passion,” “Hard 4 Me,” “Ecstasy,” and “F**k My Brains Out.”

Sextape 4 follows 2018’s Ménage à Trois: Sextape Vol. 1, 2, 3. The three-volume album consisted of 40 baby-making jams including “Challenger,” “Bedroom,” and “Super Soaker.”

The Grammy-winning hitmaker can also be heard alongside JAY-Z on the unreleased demo of “Holy Grail” as well as Jay Electronica’s new album A Written Testimony.

The-Dream recently paid tribute to Bill Withers by performing a cover of the late soul legend’s “Ain’t No Sunshine” on his piano at home. “Mr Withers was one of the most influential artist of our time,” he wrote. “To The Great Bill Withers Rest, you deserve it, let us as musicians honor you by taking it from here.”
