Ari Lennox is taking a mini break from social media before her sophomore album, age/sex/location, releases Sept. 9. She isn’t leaving her fans high and dry, though. The Washington, D.C., native just dropped a surprise EP titled Away Message. 

“Off the internet until September 9 so here’s my away message to you all 😘. New EP to hold you over until the album, love ya,” Lennox tweeted. 

Away Message consists of five tracks, including the Summer Walker-assisted “Queen Space,” which dropped earlier today. The other tracks are “Tatted,” “Gummy,” “No Settling” and “Bitter,” all of which include a production credit from her Dreamville label head J. Cole. It’s not certain if any or all of these songs will also appear on age/sex/location.

Speaking of age/sex/location, the 12-track album will include Lennox’s previously shared singles “Pressure” and “Hoodie.”

“Pressure,” produced by Jermaine Dupri, Bryan-Michael Cox and Elite, was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in May, after exceeding 500,000 equivalent sales units.

It also peaked at No. 1 on Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay chart, securing Lennox her first chart-topper on this list.

Circling back to age/sex/location, the highly awaited album will follow Lennox’s debut LP, Shea Butter Baby. The album included her J. Cole-assisted title track, which received a gold certification from the RIAA. 

In a lengthy text exchange, which Cole shared on Instagram, Lennox explained what age/sex/location means to her. She described it as a “transitional space” and her “eat, pray, love journey.” She added, “It’s my honest goodbye to searching for love. I got it right here inside me.”
