Yung Miami Announces Debut Solo Album 'Watch Dis'

Miami hip hop has a new moment on the calendar. Yung Miami has announced Watch Dis, her long-awaited debut solo album, arriving October 23 — and the 20-track project is stacked with some of the biggest names in rap. Announced this week with a dramatic trailer, the album is shaping up to be one of the biggest solo debuts of the fall.

From City Girls to Solo: A New Chapter

Yung Miami built her name as one-half of City Girls, the Miami duo that carved out an unmistakable lane in hip-hop with records like "Act Up" and "Twerk" featuring Cardi B. When the duo split in 2024 — their final album RAW having arrived in 2023 — both members stepped into solo careers, and the question was always what Miami would do with a full album of her own.

Now we have the answer. Watch Dis is her first full-length project under her own name, and she's treating it as exactly that: a personal declaration. The album campaign opened with a trailer in which she addresses the criticism she's faced across her career and the emotions she poured into making the record. Her message was pure confidence — she didn't play it safe with one single; she built an entire album she believes in and wants everybody to watch.

What We Know About 'Watch Dis'

The album runs 20 tracks and reads like a map of today's rap landscape. The announced guest list includes Quavo, G Herbo, Lil Baby, Kodak Black, Shenseea, and Vybz Kartel, among others. That's a deliberately wide net — Atlanta trap royalty, Chicago street energy, and Caribbean dancehall fire all in one place — while the center of gravity stays firmly in the Southern rap and Miami sounds that shaped her career.

The rollout also got a major boost earlier this year from "Spend Dat," her April single that climbed to No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 — the highest-charting solo release of her career. That momentum is exactly what an artist wants heading into a debut album, and it gave Miami proof of concept: her solo lane is real, and it can move numbers.

The Singles: "2008" and "F You"

Alongside the album announcement, Miami dropped two new singles — "2008" and "F You" — both streaming now with accompanying visuals. They're the first real taste of the album's sound and attitude, and they're already doing their job: the conversation around Watch Dis went from announcement to anticipation overnight. Expect both records to be all over the airwaves between now and October 23.

Why Miami Hip Hop Fans Should Care

This is a hometown story, and that matters. Miami's rap scene has always punched above its weight nationally, and a solo debut this big — with a guest list this deep — puts the 305 back in the center of the conversation. For South Florida listeners, Watch Dis is more than an album drop; it's proof that Miami hip hop keeps evolving, keeps winning, and keeps setting the tone for the culture.

There's also a lesson here for independent artists watching from the sidelines: Miami didn't rush the moment. She built her name, tested records as a solo act, let "Spend Dat" prove her ceiling, and then swung big with a 20-track statement. That's how you launch a new era — patience, then power.
