The most unexpected moment on Yung Miami’s debut solo album comes right at the very end.

The closing track of “Watch Dis” is a “Spend Dat” remix featuring Vybz Kartel, Shenseea and Davido, pulling Jamaican dancehall and Nigerian Afrobeats into a project rooted in Miami rap.

“Watch Dis” arrives October 23, 2026, and runs twelve tracks. It follows the run of “Spend Dat,” the single that put the City Girls rapper back at the center of the conversation this year.

The song appears three times on the tracklist: the original, then two remixes stacked at the back end of the album.

The first remix brings in Lil Baby and Kodak Black, which feels like a natural extension of the hip hop lane. The second is the bolder swing.

Kartel, Shenseea and Davido give the track a shot at audiences in the Caribbean, West Africa and the global diaspora that a standard rap remix might never reach.

The pairing of Kartel and Shenseea carries some history. Shenseea’s early rise included “Loodi,” her 2016 collaboration with Kartel, which helped introduce her to a wider dancehall audience before she broke through internationally.

Kartel’s own story shifted dramatically in 2024 when he walked free after the UK Privy Council overturned his murder conviction, and he has been back in heavy demand ever since.

Davido brings a different kind of weight. The Nigerian star has spent years as one of Afrobeats’ biggest crossover names, and his presence on a Miami rap record shows how freely these scenes trade features now.

Putting him next to two dancehall heavyweights on one track makes the remix feel built for a global playlist rather than just a local club.

Back home, the album leans hard into Miami. Dade County” brings together Rick Ross, Trina and Trick Daddy, three names deeply tied to the city’s rap history.

For Yung Miami, who came up through City Girls alongside JT, the track reads like a hometown handshake on her first solo outing.

The rest of the guest list keeps the energy high. Quavo and G Herbo appear together on “TMTC,” while the opening run of “Fck Shit Up (Intro),” “F You,” “2008,” “Put Together” and “Blink Twice” plays without features. There’s also a “Freak Like Me” interlude leading into the full track of the same name.

Yung Miami has been open about how personal the album is. She has described it as a project shaped by everything she has been through, which makes the unaccompanied stretch at the front of the tracklist worth watching closely. That’s where listeners will probably look for the most revealing material.

There’s a fair question about including “Spend Dat” three times on a twelve song album. Some fans may see the remixes as padding, while others will see a smart way to keep a hit circulating across different audiences. The dancehall and Afrobeats version in particular could travel well beyond the rap charts.

Yung Miami has spent the rollout showing she has more to say on her own. With release day approaching, the real test is how that international remix lands once it reaches dancehall and Afrobeats listeners.
