The rapper reposted the announcement, to the excitement of his 10 million-plus followers on Instagram. Yachty and Brunson’s episode will air on April 1 on NBC.

Let’s Start Here, Yachty’s fifth studio LP, was released in January via Motown Records and Quality Control Music. The album represented a marked shift in the artist’s musical style, leaning away from typical rap and further into a unique psychedelic pop-rock sound.
