9th Wonder has teased some new music with Larry June, revealing he’s sent him enough beats for a full project.
The veteran producer took to X (formerly Twitter) on Monday (May 20) to respond to a fan who wrote on the platform: “We need a @9thwonder and @LarryJuneTFM project.”
9th then revealed that he’s sent Larry June around 20 beats, but it’s unclear if they have any plans to release music together.
“I’ve sent him beats,” he wrote. “About a 20 piece.”

Larry June is no stranger to releasing collaborative projects with producers having previously teamed up with the likes of The Alchemist, Cardo, Harry Fraud, Sledgren and Cookin’ Soul over the years.
The Bay Area rapper has also worked with other big name beatmakers including Swizz Beatz, Jake One and DJ Khalil.
Larry released his last project The Night Shift with Cardo in November, which followed The Great Escape with The Alchemist in March last year.
During an interview with Complex in May 2023, he talked about his collaborative relationship with The Alchemist and other high-profile producers.
“I’ve worked with a lot of producers that have big presences like that, too, like Cardo and Harry Fraud,” he said. “Al was different, though, because he had a very particular sound and I did, too.
“So, at first, I came in there kind of like, ‘Shit! How we gonna do this? Should I rap, like, super Hip Hop? Because, you know, he’s a legend.’ But I said, ‘Fuck it! I’m gonna do me.’ So I brought my world into his world and we created a sound that we can do over and over again.”
Larry June also explained his mindset when it comes to creating music with a single producer.
“When I do music with one producer, I like to create a sound that I can always come back to,” he said. “If you listen to my catalogue, you will hear different pockets on different tapes because I’m bringing my world into their world because it’s a collaborative project.”
He added: “It’s just one rapper, one producer, so it’s like we’re creating a pasta. It might not sound like my solo album.”
