Fetty P Franklin & DaBaby – Kirk Franklin [EP]
A late-December surprise that’s easy to run back: Fetty P Franklin and DaBaby link up for a compact joint EP called “Kirk Franklin”.
It’s a quick hit—7 songs, 14 minutes—released via GroundHawg Entertainment, and it moves with that “no filler, straight to it” mentality that fits a holiday-week drop perfectly. The title does what it’s supposed to do: it makes you do a double-take. It reads like a playful mash-up—Fetty P Franklin plus the very famous Kirk Franklin name—while also being the kind of headline that’s guaranteed to spark confusion with DaBaby’s own 2019 album “KIRK” if you’re scrolling too fast. Different project, different era—this one is strictly the Fetty P Franklin collab.
What makes this EP feel like more than a random link-up is that it’s not their first time crossing paths. Fetty previously had DaBaby on “SDA” (from FRANK (Deluxe)), and Kirk Franklin plays like they decided to double down on that connection and keep it tight instead of stretching it into a bloated tape.
Tracklist-wise, it’s seven straight co-credited cuts—“Allergic to Pollen”, “Close Friends”, “Hustlin’ Grindin’ Hustlin’”, “Leprechaun”, “Where Would I Be”, “Proof in the Puddin’”, and “Money Blue”. Even without over-reading the titles, you can tell what lane they’re aiming for: inner-circle talk, hustle talk, and punchline-ready phrasing that’s built to stick.

If you want something you can knock front-to-back in one sitting—and then immediately restart—Kirk Franklin is exactly that: a short, focused drop that feels designed for momentum more than mythology.
