While We Wait 2 is the third commercial and fourth mixtape by American singer Kehlani, released on August 28, 2024.[2] The mixtape serves as a sequel to Kehlani's 2019 mixtape While We Wait, and is their second project of 2024, following the release of their fourth album Crash, just two months prior. The mixtape features guest appearances from Lucky Daye, Lil' Mo, Vince Staples, Destin Conrad, Dixson, Flo and Ludmilla.
Background
[edit]In February 2019, Kehlani released their third mixtape While We Wait, which was to bridge the gap between their debut album SweetSexySavage and their upcoming sophomore album at the time, which would become It Was Good Until It Wasn't. On July 17, 2024, a month after the release of their fourth album Crash, Kehlani started to tease the mixtape's sequel via Instagram.[3] Kehlani then revealed 10 days later on July 26 that the mixtape was completed and was moving onto the mixing process.[4] They also played a preview of the track "Know Better", which had been in the works since 2019.[5] Kehlani continued to share snippets from the mixtape, including a song titled "First Life".[6]
The mixtape's cover and release date was revealed on August 21, 2024, with the track listing being revealed two days later on August 23.[7]
Singles
[edit]Kehlani released the first single "When He's Not There" featuring American singer Lucky Daye on August 26, 2024, two days prior to the mixtape's release.[8]
