2093 is the fourth studio album by American rapper Yeat, released on February 16, 2024, through Capitol Records, Field Trip Recordings and Lyfestyle Corporation. The album features guest appearances from Lil Wayne and Future, while the P2 deluxe edition adds another guest appearance from Drake. It serves as the follow-up to Afterlyfe (2023).

Background

[edit]

Following the release of Afterlyfe, Yeat would release the single "Bigger Then Everything",[4] as well as be featured on Drake's song "IDGAF" in August and October 2023, respectively.[5]

Yeat further described the theme of 2093 as a "dystopian society" and said that people would have no idea what it was "going to sound like".[6]

A teaser trailer for the album featured futuristic animations and revolves around the tale of a "corporate police state," inspired by Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949).[7] Further album teases included pictures showing Yeat in Paris, recording with Donald Glover in a recording studio, as well as a FaceTime between him and Drake.[8] Yeat also posted a snippet of a song with Future.[9] On February 15, the rapper announced the album and shared the tracklist on Instagram.[10][11]

On February 17, just a day after the album's original release, Yeat released 2093 (P2) with two additional tracks.[12] On February 21, Yeat released 2093 (P3) with four additional tracks, however, the album was only made available to buy as a digital copy on his official website to boost overall sales.[13]

2093 received positive reviews from music critics. On Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album received an average score of 62, based on six reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[14]

Reviewing the album for AllMusic, Paul Simpson wrote, "The ambitious and experimental 2093 is filled with lyrics about a corporate police state, sometimes delivered first-person in the guise of an evil CEO. There are moments of subtle humor, like when he buys the entire planet, then sells it seemingly without a second thought. Still, he sounds rather joyless as he's taking over the world, appearing to lament his wealth and power instead of flaunting it."[15] In a review for Pitchfork, Alphonse Pierre remarked, "Yeat's older projects threw you into the deep end of his magma flows and fuzzy world-building and asked that you either get it or don't. An album this safe and familiar will be great for packing out bigger concert venues but only makes his musical identity more nebulous."[17] In Slant Magazine, Paul Attard stated that, "Yeat remains the same single-minded alien that he was when he made Afterlyfe, and 2093 contains similar issues. Repetition is a big one, and not just in the sense of saying the same word over and over again——but in songs that, though they're certainly cutting edge when compared to what else is out there, begin to blur together over time. But while that prevents 2093 from sounding quite as forward-minded as its title suggests, Yeat is finally tapping into a style he can confidently call his own."[2]

Commercial performance

[edit]

2093 debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart, earning 70,000 album-equivalent units, including 12,000 pure sales. The album also accumulated a total of 79.15 million on-demand streams of the album's songs.[19]
