Young M.A only took a few weeks to create her latest project, a featureless EP titled "Red Flu."

Some people may be bored in the house during this COVID-19 quarantine, but Young M.A has used the opportunity to craft a project. The New York rapper recently announced that she would be releasing her Red Flu EP, and right on time, Young M.A delivered. The seven-track record is featureless as the 28-year-old emcee stands alone, and Red Flu is the first body of work we've received since she shared her debut album Herstory in the Making last year.

Red Flu is a project that only took Young M.A a few weeks to put together. "I started in April and finished in a matter of two or three weeks. It’s been a really quick turnaround," she told Complex. "There’s been a lot of frustration with this quarantine. I had a lot of time on my hands, so I was able to focus on writing music, listening to beats, and having time to myself. It’s just something to give to my fans. They need it." Stream Red Flu and let us know what you think.
