Today, breakout and award-winning East Texas rapper Ro$ama is gearing up for the release of his new studio album, My Forte, arriving September 11, 2026, with his latest single, “Dangerous,” available now via UnitedMasters / 600 Entertainment. The highly anticipated official music video premieres tomorrow at 1 PM ET. The announcement follows a breakout run for Ro$ama, who has continued to push beyond his Texas roots onto some of hip-hop’s biggest stages. After performing at Rolling Loud Orlando earlier this year and completing his “Orange Tape” Tour, Ro$ama now turns that momentum toward My Forte, marking the next major evolution in his rise.

Produced by BankRoll Got It, “Dangerous” is a high-energy record built on sharp Southern lyricism, vivid metaphors, and clever similes. The track uses Dallas as both a setting and a metaphor, exploring the tension among ambition, survival, danger, and opportunity with the wit and confidence that define Ro$ama’s writing. More than a straightforward tribute, “Dangerous” turns the city into a reflection of the world that shaped the artist, giving listeners a glimpse into the perspective and storytelling at the center of his debut era.

The music video, creatively directed and produced by Sabrina Kalimian, was initially teased on Instagram, building anticipation ahead of its premiere. Told through an immersive, first-person perspective, the visual follows Ro$ama as he races through Dallas while being pursued by police, ultimately building toward a dramatic shutdown of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge. The cinematic visual transforms one of Dallas’ most recognizable landmarks into a larger-than-life expression of the record’s impact, further connecting “Dangerous” to Ro$ama’s Texas roots and identity.

“Dangerous” arrives as the latest preview of My Forte, Ro$ama’s debut studio album and the beginning of his legacy. Rooted in his East Texas upbringing, the album captures an artist coming fully into his own, tracing Ro$ama’s evolution while giving listeners a closer look at the experiences and perspective that shaped him. More than a debut, the forthcoming album will be an origin story and statement of intent—inviting listeners deeper into Ro$ama’s world. The album uses the artist to introduce himself on his own terms, giving audiences a more personal understanding of the artist behind the music and setting the tone for what comes next. 

It’s been an astronomical year for Ro$ama, marked by a steady rise from Dallas standout to a nationally recognized voice in hip-hop. Over the past year, he has expanded his reach from the Texas scene to some of the biggest stages and platforms in music, including a performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon as part of 6WA, appearances across Million Dollaz Worth of Game, Audiomack, and RapTV, and a growing touring presence alongside BigXThaPlug. That run included a 30-day stretch on the road and a shared Coachella stage, further amplifying the Dallas-rooted chemistry that has become central to Ro$ama’s rise. Most recently, Ro$ama took the momentum nationwide with a performance at Rolling Loud Orlando and the completion of his “Orange Tape” Tour, further expanding his footprint across major U.S. markets and bringing his music directly to audiences beyond Texas. His partnership with BigXThaPlug has continued to translate across both live performances and recorded music, including collaborations such as “Meet the 6ixers,” while Ro$ama has simultaneously established a distinct identity of his own. His growing cultural footprint has also extended beyond traditional hip-hop spaces, including a placement on the Warner Bros. Pictures Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire soundtrack, marking a notable crossover moment for the emerging artist. With more than 50 million Spotify streams, 2.5 million monthly listeners, and a BMI Songwriter Award for co-writing BigXThaPlug’s RIAA Platinum hit, Ro$ama enters the My Forte era with momentum that reaches well beyond Dallas. What began as a regional rise has evolved into a national trajectory—one increasingly defined by bigger stages, broader audiences, and an artist stepping firmly into his own.
