As shared in the official press release, the trailer is directed by Donald Glover, Stephen Glover, Jamal Olori and Fam Udeorji and "depicts three generations of 21 Savage (Glover, McLaughlin) in the heat of a personal crisis."

While it’s been more than five years since Savage’s last solo LP 2018’s I Am > I Was, the rapper has stayed busy serving up joint albums with Metro Boomin (Savage Mode 2) and Drake (Her Loss) each debuting at #1.

That being said, a day after sharing the trailer for his brand new film, 21 officially announced his coinciding third solo album, appropriately named American Dream, would be dropping on Friday, January 12.
