MO3: Here's a deep look at the late rapper's upcoming 'Legend' posthumous album tracklisting

It’s still hard to believe nearly four years have flown by with Texas rapper MO3 no longer here. But his music lives on as his upcoming Legend posthumous album proves with over 10 anthems including collaborations from heavy hitters like That Mexican OT, BigXthaPlug and Tory Lanez.

The late Mo3’s ‘Legend’ album is loaded with hits

Whether you want to hear MO3 solo or sharing recording time with some fellow hitmakers, it’s clear the Legend album has you covered with 14 confirmed tunes as it inches closer to arriving to the masses this Friday.

The estate of Mo3, along with his label H$M Music and EMPIRE share the tracklist for Legend, the second posthumous album by Dallas rapper. The upcoming album is a loving tribute to the singular artist, dropping on what would have been the artist's birthday. The upcoming album features guest appearances from a litany of heavy-hitters from the street rap scene, including fellow Texans BigXThaPlug & That Mexican OT, rappers who share Mo's melodic mastery like NoCap and Fredo Bang, and fellow entrepreneurs like Money Man and Ralo. The new album is home to recent singles like "Blood Money" ft. Finesse2Tymes and the heartwrenching "Tidal Wave." Featuring additional guest spots from Tory Lanez and piano-playing Texan Tye Harris, Legend releases on May 31st via H$M Music / EMPIRE

Along with the tracklist, Mo3's estate, H$M Music, and EMPIRE share "AR" ft. BigXThaPlug & That Mexican OT. The new song is Texas to the core, featuring rising rappers from Dallas and Houston to pay tribute to the late legend. BigXThaPlug, Mo's fellow Dallas native, unfurls his basso-voiced triplets to salute the OG, while Bay City's That Mexican OT rolls his r's as he calls Mo3 the "King of Texas." Despite the compelling performance by the youngsters, Mo3 remains the star of the show, delivering a sticky hook with soulful melodies and machine-gun rhymes.

The upcoming Legend album is the proper follow-up to Shottaz 4Eva (Deluxe), the 2021 posthumous album by Mo3. Peaking at #36 on the Billboard 200, the Shottaz 4eva album was a loving tribute to the rapper by those who loved him, welcoming guest appearances from Morray, Derez De'Shon, Foogiano, and Mo's friend and longtime collaborator Boosie Badazz. Shottaz 4Eva (Deluxe) is home to "Outside (Better Days)" ft. OG Bobby Billions, a heartbreaking account of street life that has become one of Mo3's most popular songs. The song spent multiple weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, racked up over 176 million YouTube views on its video (dedicated to Mo's memory), generated over 59 million Spotify streams, and earned a spot on Barack Obama's list of favorite songs of 2021.

Though Mo3 is no longer with us, his legacy continues to inspire a new wave of melodic rap. The artist animated the streets in Texas and beyond with songs like “Everybody,” which has over 100 million streams across platforms, and the Sam Cooke-sampling “Long Time Coming,” plus beloved albums like Osama and Badazz Mo3 (a collaboration with Boosie). The late artist’s family and team will continue to release music that he was able to record before his untimely passing. In the meantime, we honor Mo3 and his contributions to hip-hop: stand by for Legend.
