HARDY, Morgan Wallen & Post Malone To Pay Tribute To Joe Diffie With ‘HIXTAPE VOL. 3’

HARDY, Morgan Wallen and Post Malone are set to pay tribute to Joe Diffie with HIXTAPE VOL. 3 after having paid homage to the late legend earlier with covers of two of his biggest hits during the 2023 CMA Awards.

HARDY announced details of the upcoming third installment of his HIXTAPE collaborative album series after the live CMA Awards broadcast on Wednesday night (November 8).

Joe’s oldest son Parker Diffie said the third iteration of HIXTAPE will utilize 2006 master recordings of Diffie’s greatest hits in tandem with all new recordings from some of country music’s biggest stars and more.

HIXTAPE VOL. 3: DIFFTAPE, which will pay homage to songs from Diffie’s wide-ranging musical catalog, will arrive on March 29, 2024.

“The Diffie Estate is thrilled to partner with Big Loud and HARDY in preserving and revitalizing Joe Diffie’s musical legacy,” says a statement from Diffie’s estate. “With their shared excitement and passion, this collaboration promises to carry on the incredible journey of a true legend.”

“I’m super excited about DIFFTAPE. I think it’s a one-of-a-kind project, and we’re the first people to do something like this,” HARDY added. “Especially having the original recordings and the fact that we have his family’s blessing to do it, it’s all really special.”
