About “ADHD”

ADHD is Joyner Lucas’ debut studio album which was first announced on his Twitter on October 12, 2018:

This project is my big FUCK YOU to any and everybody who never thought I wouldn’t make it this far. BIG FUCK YOU to anybody who stood in my way & shitted on me on my way up. The kid with “ADHD” did it.

“I Love” serves as the lead single released promoting the album, and was first revealed on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 radio show on Apple Music.

The second single, “Devil’s Work,” was released on May 2, 2019, six months after the lead single’s release.

On May 23, 2019, Joyner released ADHD’s third single, “Isis” which features surprise guest Logic, ultimately squashing the two rappers’ past beef.

The record’s fourth single, “Broke and Stupid,” was released on June 27, 2019.

The record’s fifth single was “10 Bands,” featuring producer Timbaland. It was released on July 11, 2019.

On September 12th, 2019, Lucas released his sixth promotional single and titular track for this record, “ADHD.”

On February 3rd, 2020, Lucas released ADHD’s seventh single, “Revenge,” and announced that the album will drop on the 27th of March 2020.

The record’s eighth promotional single, “Lotto” was released on March 12th, 2020 with a music video released the day before.

The album’s ninth and final promotional single, “Will” was released on March 25th, 2020, with a music video released on the same day.

In an interview, Joyner stated that recent-collaborator Eminem is going to be featured on the project. He described the “Lucky You” follow-up as the following:

We’re into Joyner Lucas territory, storytelling territory. That’s what me and Eminem, we both do best. He created one of the best records ever in life, which was “Stan.” I’m heavily inspired by that record, too.

Even though Joyner stated that, the track with Eminem eventually didn’t end up on the album. This left many fans confused and upset as to why he did not appear on the tracklist. Joyner then posted a comment on his Instagram stipulating that the song would not fit on the album.
