DAVE EAST RELEASES NEW SINGLE “HAVANA” & ANNOUNCES ‘KARMA 4’ ALBUM

“I just feel like whatever you put out, it comes back, whether it’s good or bad,” says Dave East, reflecting on the concept behind his acclaimed Karma series. “And my karma was getting in the rap game. I’ve put in a lot of work, a lot of consistency—year after year—and the karma of that was me being able to provide for my family, move out of the projects, and take my talents all over the world from music, into TV, film, and fashion.”

Today, the Harlem-bred rapper announces the highly anticipated fourth installment of his Karma series—Karma 4—which will be released on 10.15.25.  Alongside the announcement, East has dropped a brand-new single, “Havana,” which is now available at all DSPs.  The new album announcement comes on the heels of Dave’s recent appearance on Kai Cenat’s Mafiathon 3, where Dave also released a new On The Radar Freestyle and previewed a new Nipsey Hussle song that will be featured on Karma 4. 

Since its inception in 2017, the Karma series has become an essential piece of Dave East’s prolific catalog.  Karma introduced listeners to his unfiltered storytelling with features from Chris Brown, Offset, Lil Durk, and Moneybagg Yo.  A year later, Karma 2followed with collaborations from Gunna and Fabolous, further cementing the series’ reputation.  In 2020, East partnered with Def Jam/Mass Appeal for Karma 3, which boasted an all-star lineup including Mary J. Blige, Chris Brown, Benny The Butcher, Trey Songz, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Young Dolph, Dej Loaf, G Herbo, and Jeezy.

Now, five years later, Karma 4represents both a continuation and an evolution—an album rooted in the grind and growth that has defined Dave East’s journey, while setting the stage for his next era.
