Flipping through the pages of the all-time best albums, iconic moments, and hit singles has always been a major nostalgia fix for music enthusiasts. While some believe that the ’60s was the ultimate musical era, with The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and The Velvet Underground stealing the show, others lean towards the ’80s when alternative rock hit a milestone year. However, the truth is that every year’s music brings its own flavor and unique vibe. As 2023 wraps up, the music scene is set to blow up with some epic comebacks from legendary artists!

Fans are holding their breath for comebacks from the likes of Kanye West, Playboi Carti, Ty Dolla $ign, and Frank Ocean.

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign will be making their comeback together

Kanye West has been off the music radar for more than a year. The rapper, who took a hiatus following his string of controversies, is finally making a musical comeback. Meanwhile, Ty Dolla $ign has been missing since the release of his third studio album, ‘Featuring Ty Dolla Sign’, released in 2020. Both rappers will be making a joint comeback with their upcoming album, reportedly titled ‘Y$’.

Kanye West recently teased fans with a track from the album called ‘Vultures,’ featuring Bump J. The anticipation soared even higher when Ty Dolla $ign dropped the tracklist for their upcoming album. The tracklist not only teased the content of the album but also confirmed the release of the much-awaited joint track by Kanye West and Nicki Minaj, ‘New Body.’ With all this buzz building up, there is no doubt that the album will be one of the biggest releases of the year.

Playboi Carti to return with his banger after three years

Playboi Carti first hit the scene with his debut mixtape in 2017. After a three-year gap, he made a striking return with the critically acclaimed sophomore album, ‘Whole Lotta Red’, in 2020. Now, in 2023, after another three years, the artist has caught fans off guard with the release of the video for his latest track, ‘UR THE MOON’. The rapper has been teasing this track for quite some time on social media and also got some help in promotion from legends like Pharrell and The Weeknd.

As per speculations, this new track could be part of his upcoming album, possibly titled ‘Music’. The first time the rapper teased the song was in the middle of November when he confirmed the Antagonist Tour, which was supposed to kick off this fall. Fans who were already hyped from the teasing are currently on cloud 9 as the rapper finally unleashed a track after three long years.

Frank Ocean danced to his unreleased song in a recording studio

Frank Ocean is not missing out on the trend of teasing tracks from upcoming albums either. Since his Coachella performance earlier this year, and his last album dropped in 2016, one has not heard much about the rapper. After a relatively quiet period, the rapper is back in the spotlight. He has been teasing fans on social media with snippets of an untitled mid-tempo R&B jam for quite a while now. 

In a recent Instagram story, he posted a video of himself dancing to the unreleased song in a recording studio, which sparked a flurry of speculations among fans. This tease came just weeks after Ocean shared another minute-long snippet on his Instagram story, on which he was heard crooning over a droning keyboard. With all these clues in hand, it is safe to say the Frank Ocean is gearing up for an epic comeback after years. 

These teasers from the artists have had fans on the edge of their seats. And they have been flooding X, formerly Twitter, with their buzzing excitement for the anticipated releases. 

Fans’ reaction to the anticipated releases of legendary artists

What ties these four rappers together is their iconic status and shared absence from the music scene. This, in particular, has made fans even more restless for their upcoming releases. And the artists are well aware of it. Leveraging fans’ restlessness and anticipation, they have been adding as much fuel as they can to the fire to make a grand comeback. And given the overwhelming reactions from fans, it is safe to say that their strategy is indeed working very well.

Fans got extremely emotional in the hope of getting so many surprises at once.
