SoFaygo Between You and Me is the title fans have attached to the Cactus Jack rapper’s next project since his “PROJECT MODE BYM” Instagram teaser on July 13, 2026. As of September 28, 2026, neither SoFaygo nor Cactus Jack Records has announced a release date, cover or tracklist, but the title is now listed as a 2026 LP on fan databases and interest in the album is climbing again.

Key facts

  • What: SoFaygo’s next project, widely reported under the title Between You and Me (“BYM”)
  • Who: SoFaygo (Andre Dontrel Burt Jr.), signed to Travis Scott’s Cactus Jack Records since 2021
  • First teased: July 13, 2026, via an Instagram Story reading “PROJECT MODE BYM”
  • Release date: Not announced as of September 28, 2026
  • Previous project: MANIA, a 19-track mixtape released November 21, 2025
  • Latest release: “Try and Fail” with slayr, out August 18, 2026

Is SoFaygo Between You and Me officially confirmed?

Not yet. The only first-party evidence is still SoFaygo’s own Instagram Stories from July 13, 2026: a plain white slide with “PROJECT MODE BYM” in bold red type, paired with a re-shared fan comment reading “between you and meeeee.” By amplifying that comment, SoFaygo appeared to nod at the reading, but he has never spelled out what “BYM” stands for in a formal announcement.

Since then, the title has hardened in fan circles. The community-run site Album of the Year now carries a Between You And Me entry listed as a 2026 LP, but with no release date, label, cover or tracklist attached. Fan-edited profiles also describe the album as expected in the second half of 2026. Both are user-maintained sources, not label confirmations.

What has SoFaygo released since the BYM teaser?

SoFaygo has stayed active on features while the album stays under wraps. On August 18, 2026, he appeared on “Try and Fail”, a 2:33 melodic cut with XXL Freshman slayr that was issued as slayr’s single rather than as a SoFaygo release. It is his most recent credited song, and nothing indicates it is tied to Between You and Me.

Earlier in 2026 he also appeared on “me & you” with sosocamo and “cult” with Yung Kayo, extending a feature-heavy year that followed “Satellite” with CHASE B and Don Toliver, released December 19, 2025.

Where does Between You and Me fit in SoFaygo’s discography?

If it arrives as a full-length, Between You and Me would follow MANIA, the mixtape SoFaygo announced on Halloween 2025 and released on November 21, 2025. That project ended a long gap after his debut studio album Pink Heartz, which came out November 11, 2022 through Cactus Jack with features from Lil Uzi Vert, Ken Carson, Gunna, Don Toliver and DJ Khaled. SoFaygo has been a central voice in the melodic, rage-leaning corner of the roster; readers new to that sound can start with the TSNVWRLD guide to rage music.

MANIA earned some of the warmest reactions of his career and was backed by an eight-stop tour. In a March 10, 2026 V Magazine profile, writer John Norris reported the run had sold out and that another leg was planned for later in the year. Asked whether fans would get new music before the end of 2026, SoFaygo answered: “Yes. One hundred per cent. I am still actively recording. In the past like three days, I recorded like four songs already on this tour.”

Correction: An earlier version of this article described a new project as SoFaygo’s first full-length since Pink Heartz. That overlooked MANIA (November 2025), and the text has been corrected.

Is the album connected to Don Toliver’s “rise of the empire” post?

There is still no stated link. On July 13, 2026, the same day as the BYM teaser, labelmate Don Toliver posted a black-background Story reading: “I’m finna lock in like never before. It’s time. No distractions. No negativity. No wasting my time and energy. The rise of the empire.” Toliver did not name a project in that post.

That message later fed speculation about Toliver’s own follow-up to Octane, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 after its January 30, 2026 release — covered in our report on the Don Toliver NITROUS tease. The two artists have collaborated often, including “Smoke” (2021), “Precision” (2024) and “Satellite” (2025), but neither has said a Toliver feature is on Between You and Me. You can track Toliver’s year on the TSNVWRLD Don Toliver hub.

When will SoFaygo Between You and Me come out?

There is no release date. SoFaygo’s past rollouts give a useful pattern: he dated Pink Heartz about three and a half weeks ahead, alongside four singles on October 17, 2022, and announced MANIA exactly three weeks before release, with a simple “Mania 11/21” Instagram post on October 31, 2025. If he repeats that approach, fans can expect only a few weeks of notice once a date is set.

The signals to watch are an official cover or title card on SoFaygo’s Instagram, a pre-save link on streaming platforms, a lead single credited to him as the main artist, and dates for the second MANIA tour leg. This is a developing story, and TSNVWRLD will update this page as SoFaygo or Cactus Jack confirm details.
