Stefflon Don Shares Release Date, Cover And Tracklist For Debut Album ‘Island 54’

Two mixtapes into her career, British Jamaican rapper Stefflon Don will finally release her debut album, Island 54, on June 14 via 54 LDN/BMG.

The album will sonically lean towards Afrobeats and Dancehall, with the title being a nod to Stefflon’s Caribbean heritage and the 54 countries that make up Africa. 

“Island 54 is a dream that you do not want to wake up from,” Stefflon said in a release to DancehallMag. “A futuristic private island. An island that will put you in awe. An island that is magical and can only make you feel high vibrational frequencies. The music on the album represents the unforgettable vibes the island will be giving you: A perfect fusion between Dancehall and Afro.” 

The 20-track project’s guest list includes Reggae/Dancehall singer Buju Banton and artist/producer BEAM.  Dweet, the Banton collaboration, is said to exemplify “Stefflon Don’s trademark heavy-hitting Jamaican sound that has become her signature over the years.” The album will also include the previously released single What’s Poppin’ with BNXN.

In a previous interview with DancehallMag, Stefflon expressed hope that the album will grow her fanbase.  

“Hopefully, people will respect me more as a whole artist,” she said. “I think people do, but I think it’s whole projects, it’s amazing albums that really make people stand out as an artist. I’ve never dropped an album before so I do hope after it launches people will really realise that I really am an all-around artist.”

Born in Birmingham to Jamaican parents, Stefflon grew up in The Netherlands and London, embracing her diverse cultural background. 

Her breakout single Hurtin’ Me featuring French Montana achieved international success, reaching No. 7 on the UK Singles Chart and No. 19 on the US Bubbling Under Hot 100.  

Her other popular tracks include 16 Shots, Senseless and Dip with Ms Banks.
