Just a Matter of Slime is the second studio album by American rapper YNW Melly. It was released on August 13, 2021, by 300 Entertainment and Atlantic Records.[1] The album features guest appearances from Lil Uzi Vert, YNW Gunna, Hotboii, Kodak Black, Lil Baby, Lil Durk, Queen Naija, Young Thug, Lil Tjay, Kevin Gates, Future, and Tee Grizzley.

Background[]

While in prison, Melly said that the album would be released in July 2021.[2] At first the album was originally meant to be released on July 30, 2021, with ten tracks, however it was pushed back to add more tracks; on August 6, it was announced that the album would be released on August 13, 2021, and that it would feature 12 tracks. Five out of the 12 tracks of the album were released as singles and four of them have music videos.

On August 6, 2021, Melly's social media confirmed the release date and released the cover art.[3] The album title is a reference to Melly's incarceration; he references "Just a Matter of Slime" as being released soon. The album cover shows a snake looping around a diamond watch. Melly also confirmed on his Instagram from a video call from jail that he had been helping to produce this album from jail awaiting murder trial.[citation needed]
