Jhené Aiko has revealed the star-studded tracklist for her third album Chilombo, which features some of hip-hop and R&B’s biggest names.
In addition to Big Sean on “None of Your Concern,” the 20 tracks include appearances from H.E.R., John Legend, Ab-Soul, Ty Dolla $ign, and her father, Dr. Chill. Future and Miguel join the L.A. songstress on “Happiness Over Everything (H.O.E.),” while the legendary Nas guests on “10K Hours.”
Chilombo, which is the singer’s last name and means wild beast, has already spawned a trio of singles–the platinum-certified “Triggered,” “None of Your Concern,” and “P*$$y Fairy (OTW).”

The album, which “celebrates her coming into her own personal power,” consists of freestyles that took place in Hawaii where Jhené’s great grandmother was born. She explores the practice of sound healing by incorporating crystal alchemy singing bowls on every track that are meant to stimulate different chakras.
“I make music for healing purposes, for myself,” Jhené told Essence. “It’s like journaling or when people paint. It’s sort of an escape. It’s turning pain or frustration into something; into art. Sharing it is also therapeutic because when people express to you that they are relating to it, you’re like, ‘Oh, I’m not alone in what I’m going through.’”
