Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter and producer Ty Dolla $ign has announced that his new album, Beach House 3, will arrive everywhere October 27 via Atlantic Records.
To accompany the early pre-order, Ty has just released two brand new songs. The first finds Ty collaborating with fellow hitmaker Jeremih on “Dawsin’s Breek.” Over a hard-hitting vibey production by Mike Will, Ty sings: “I got a brand new coupe / I got a brand new ‘Rarri / I got a brand new boo / I put my ex in park.”
Following the song’s premiere on Beats 1, Ty explained his inspiration. “I’m just trying to stay ahead,” he said. “I told y’all before. There’s no such thing as try. I am just taking it ahead. Gang shit.”
Partly influenced by the late ’90s, early 2000s teen drama “Dawson’s Creek” Ty added, “It was inspired by ‘Dawson’s Creek,’ but I didn’t want to use their name. So we made up our own name.”
The B-side single comes in the form of the lofty “Message in a Bottle,” which boasts an acoustic track as Dolla sings about drinking, texting exes, and living life like it’s a movie.
“Thanks to the message in a bottle / Let me get a swallow / Filling up my cup, section full of models / And we going up like it’s a Tuesday / Drinking ’till I’m woozy / Know I’m ’bout that action / Living like a movie,” he sings.
“Dawsin’s Breek” and “Message in a Bottle” follow “So Am I” and “Love U Better” off Dolla’s Beach House 3, which is set to drop Oct. 27.
