Icon Lyrics & Tracklist – Brent Faiyaz

Album Overview

Icon is the third studio album by American R&B artist Brent Faiyaz, scheduled for release on February 13, 2026 through ISO Supremacy with distribution by UnitedMasters. The project follows his 2023 mixtape Larger than Life and his critically acknowledged 2022 album Wasteland. Icon features a focused 10-track format that underscores Faiyaz’s intent to present a concise, emotionally resonant body of work rooted in contemporary R&B and soul with atmospheric production textures. Raphaeal Saadiq serves as the executive producer, with additional co-production from a range of collaborators including Chad Hugo, Benny Blanco, Dpat, Paperboy Fabe, and Tommy Richman.

The album rollout was spearheaded by the single “have to.”, released in October 2025. The track encapsulates Faiyaz’s blend of vulnerability and melodic restraint, exploring themes of longing and emotional complexity. Icon’s musical direction emphasizes minimalist production, rich vocal layering, and introspective songwriting that reflect the artist’s evolution in sonic range and narrative depth.

Musical Style and Themes

Musically, Icon builds upon Brent Faiyaz’s signature R&B and neo-soul aesthetics, incorporating elements of alternative R&B and atmospheric soundscapes. Production choices emphasize sparse but evocative instrumentation, allowing Faiyaz’s vocals and lyrical narratives to remain at the forefront. The album’s themes revolve around intimacy, identity, vulnerability, and the interplay between emotional introspection and confidence. With Raphaeal Saadiq’s executive oversight, Icon is anticipated to expand Faiyaz’s sonic palette while maintaining the mood-driven essence that has defined his previous work.

Release Information

Icon is set to release globally on February 13, 2026. In addition to digital distribution, physical editions including CD and cassette formats will be available through Faiyaz’s official channels. The album’s promotional campaign has included visual trailers and strategic singles, signaling a deliberate approach to establishing Icon’s artistic footprint ahead of its formal release.
