Tay-K's album MONSTERSUNDERMYBED is due Friday, November 13, at 12:00 AM ET, according to the official pre-save page. The title is stylized in one word on the official materials.
The album is his first full-length since 2017's SantanaWorld, and it is set to arrive through RR4L Worldwide, Create Music Group, and Broke, per a press release from Audible Treats. The release describes a 16-track project and names Maxo Kream and 1900Rugrat as guests, with Maxo Kream appearing on the song "Princess." The cover art is based on a painting by Mr Ewok One, from a design by Tay-K, who is also credited with creative direction.
The official TAY-K SoundCloud account posted F**K U on November 5 at 12:20 PM ET, with production credited to ARKMAN, 2C, and John Cunningham. Complex reports that the song is available exclusively on SoundCloud.
The FADER and Complex both report that the album took about three years and came together from prison, with Tay-K working by phone with producers including John Cunningham and Warpstr. Both outlets, citing the press release, quote him saying he hopes the album will "reclaim his right to artistic expression that was manipulated by the justice system."
Tay-K, whose legal name is Taymor McIntyre, is currently incarcerated. In July 2019, a Fort Worth jury sentenced him to 55 years in prison for the 2016 murder of Ethan Walker during a home invasion, with concurrent sentences on three aggravated robbery counts, per CBS Texas. In April 2025, a San Antonio jury sentenced him to 80 years in prison for the murder of Mark Anthony Saldivar. Judge Stephanie Boyd said that sentence will run concurrently with the 55 year sentence, per KSAT.
What we don't know yet
The release time of 12:00 AM ET comes from the official pre-save page, and we have not seen independent confirmation that every platform will have the album at that moment. It is also unconfirmed whether F**K U will be added to the album later. Complex reports that the Saldivar case is being appealed. We did not independently confirm that filing.
MONSTERSUNDERMYBED is due on streaming at 12:00 AM ET Friday. Tell us what you think in the CXM Discord.
