    Released: March 22, 2024

The album was preceded by two singles: "772 Love, Pt. 3 (Your Love)" (with YNW Bslime) and "Save Me" (with YNW BSlime and Jit4Stan). Both of which were accompanied by music videos, along with the songs "Top Off" (with YNW SmokeDaLoc and YNW Bslime), Friendly (with Jit4Stan), and "3 Pointer" (with Jit4Stan and Lil Poppa).

Unlike its processors, Young New Wave failed to chart in any known territory and saw generally negative critical response. YNW Melly was credited for having strong melodies; however, the rapper did not have direct involvement in the project and seldom appeared, resulting in negative reviews.[2]
