Visionland is the debut studio album by American rapper YBN Nahmir.[1] The album was released on March 26, 2021, by Atlantic Records and Art@War, and features guest appearances from 21 Savage, Ty Dolla Sign, G Herbo, G-Eazy, Offset, E-40, Too Short, FatBoy SSE, and DaBoii. The album failed to chart in any territory and reportedly sold 4,000 copies in its first week of release in the United States.[2]
Release and promotion
On September 1, 2020, YBN Nahmir announced the album's title, announcing that it would be released on his 21st birthday, December 18, 2020. It was delayed for unknown reasons, but he then announced its cover art and release date along with the pre-order.[3]
Singles
YBN Nahmir released "Opp Stoppa" as the lead single from the album on June 10, 2019.[4] It was followed up nine months later with the second single, "2 Seater", featuring fellow American rappers G-Eazy and Offset, on March 19, 2020.[5] Eight months later, "Wake Up" was released as its third single on November 20, 2020.[6] Nahmir then released the remix of "Opp Stoppa", which features fellow American rapper 21 Savage, on January 22, 2021.[7] The final single, "Fast Car (Stain)", was released on March 12, 2021.[8]
Critical reception
Dylan Green of Pitchfork gave Visionland a rating of 5.3 out of 10, saying that "[Nahmir]'s missing the punchy enthusiasm of Flo Milli, the melodic sharpness of NoCap, or the vivid stoicism of OMB Peezy and brings little else to the table". He gave positive comments about the album's first track, calling it "one of Nahmir's best".
