DJ Mustard revealed the tracklist for Faith of a Mustard Seed. The producer’s fourth album is set to release on July 26th, just over five years removed from the platinum-selling Perfect Ten. In an interview with XXL, Mustard revealed that the late Nipsey Hussle suggested the album title when they were working on Perfect Ten. He used the title for this album after noticing that the tracks being recorded were more soulful.
The album features some of the biggest names in the rap game. Mustard released “Parking Lot” with Travis Scott as the lead single last month. The ten-minute closing track, “Pray For Me” arrived on July 12 and features two verses from Mustard himself. Mustard previously pledged to never rap on one of his own songs, but thought that this was a good time to finally do so.
Elsewhere, the West Coast is well-represented on the Los Angeles producer’s latest effort. “Pressured Up” features Vince Staples and ScHoolboy Q, their first collaboration since 2016’s “Ride Out.” Frequent Mustard collaborator Ty Dolla $ign and legendary R&B/funk/soul extraordinaire Charlie Wilson are on two songs together. “A Song For Mom” also features Maseo, while “Mines” features Future. Roddy Ricch features twice as well, on “Truth Is” and “One Bad Decision,” a duet with Ella Mai. Gospel powerhouse Kirk Franklin opens the album, playing into the faith aspect of the album title. Fans were quick to note that YG and Kendrick Lamar were conspicuously absent from the tracklist. However, there are no listed features on “Track 5,” leading to speculation that one of them will appear there.
Faith of a Mustard Seed is the latest in what has become a banner year for DJ Mustard. He produced the Kendrick Lamar track “Not Like Us,” the final in a series of diss tracks aimed at Drake during their highly publicized battle. Mustard didn’t even know Lamar was going to use the beat until he heard the song on the radio. The track became Mustard’s first #1 single. He also performed at The Pop Out, bringing out some of his greatest collaborators, including the aforementioned YG. And now, he gets to celebrate a new album release in just a few short days.
