The hip-hop world lost a rising star when Queens native, Chinx, was tragically gunned down in his car during the early morning hours of May 17. While the official release date of his posthumous album, Welcome To JFK, is this Friday, Aug. 14, Billboard got its hands on the project and few days early and the project is now available to stream. The 12-track effort features French Montana, Stack Bundles, Ty Dolla $ign, Jeremih, Nipsey Hussle and Lil Durk. "He had finally come into his own, musically," said his manager, Doug "Biggs" Ellison, via a press release. Check out the stream above and be sure to cop if you like what you hear on Friday.

For those interested in donating money to Chinx’s family to help provide financial support, a GoFundMe page is available here. Chinx was laid to rest in Queens and in lieu of flowers, the family asked for donations with the following statement:

As you can imagine, in today’s challenging economic climate, losing your primary source of income can be devastating. When that loss is due to the unexpected death, it leaves a void that can never truly be filled.

Instead of sending flowers, please consider helping the family fill part of the financial void. Your donations will help provide much needed financial stability to a family who deserves so much more than what they have been dealt. We cannot replace the warmth, charisma, wit, charm, and love that Chinx gave to not only his family, and friends, but also, his fans. We can however, help keep them focused on what really matters, and that is each other.

On behalf of the Pickens family, Mungin family and Four Kings Management, we thank you all for your love and support.
