    Here is a possible article about 21 Savage's album american dream:
    21 Savage is back with his third solo studio album, american dream, which also serves as the soundtrack for his biopic film of the same name. The album, released on January 12, 2024, features guest appearances from Travis Scott, Young Thug, Doja Cat, Brent Faiyaz, Lil Durk, Summer Walker, Mariah the Scientist, Burna Boy, and Metro Boomin. ¹²
    The album showcases 21 Savage's versatility as a rapper, as he switches from hard-hitting trap anthems to smooth R&B ballads, reflecting on his journey from poverty and crime to fame and success. The album also touches on his immigration status, which became a controversial topic after his arrest by ICE in 2019. ³⁴
    The album opens with a spoken piece by 21 Savage's mother, Heather Joseph, who narrates the sacrifices she made for her son to live "his American Dream". The title track, "american dream", follows, where 21 Savage raps about his aspirations and achievements over a soulful beat produced by Metro Boomin and Childish Gambino. ²⁵
    Other highlights of the album include "Pescatarian", a catchy banger where 21 Savage and Travis Scott boast about their lavish lifestyles and seafood diets; "Savage Mode 3", a sequel to his 2016 and 2020 collaborations with Metro Boomin, where the duo deliver menacing bars over a dark instrumental; "Love Me Not", a duet with Doja Cat, where the two artists express their doubts and insecurities in a toxic relationship; and "London Boy", a tribute to his birth city, where he teams up with Burna Boy to blend hip hop and afrobeat influences. ²
    The album also features songs that are inspired by or sampled from the film, such as "Bank Account 2", which reworks his 2017 hit "Bank Account" with new lyrics and scenes from the movie; "No Heart 2", which samples his 2016 song "No Heart" and features a cameo from Donald Glover, who plays his mentor in the film; and "A Lot 2", which interpolates his 2018 song "A Lot" and features a verse from Young Thug, who portrays his rival in the film. ²
    The album has received critical acclaim from music critics, who praised 21 Savage's growth as an artist, his storytelling skills, and his production choices. The album has also performed well commercially, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200 chart, with 312,000 equivalent album units in its first week.
