Jay Rock has finished working on his third album. The Top Dawg Entertainment artist stopped by The Real After Party show to promote the Black Panther soundtrack and ended up speaking about his highly anticipated solo project.
“The album is done,” Rock said around the 2:20 mark of the interview. “I just had a minor little setback. For those who don’t know, I was in an accident. I was just healing up. When I healed up, I just locked in, in the studio.”
When asked if the LP would be released in 2018, Rock assured fans it would be arriving this year. According to him, the album has already been mixed and samples are getting cleared.
“Fo’ sho, it’s coming,” he said. “It’s already done. It’s mixed up. It’s ready to go. It’s still like … you know, the business side, as far as getting things cleared and things of that nature. But it’s ready to go, though.”
Around the eight-minute mark, the album was brought up once again. Rock confirmed that Kendrick Lamar would appear on the LP and named some of the producers, which include Cardo and Sounwave, before speaking highly of the final product.
“The sound is crazy,” he noted. “I don’t wanna too much talk about it. I just wanna drop it and let it go from there. Trust me, y’all won’t be disappointed.”

Jay rock is too underated
Jay Rock the humblest dude in TDE. Gumbo is my shit!
So TDE only disappoints you, but you still go on a TDE article to talk shit? Fuck outta here!
Nothing wrong with Def Squad. They represented just like Rock is doing. Same goes for Timberland as he produced hits for lyricists like Jay Z. Use other examples fam. Not those that uplift the culture like Jay Rock doing.
I agree Schoolboy Q is ass too just like that loser with the eye disease who always wear sunglasses he ass too. Safe to say all of TDE is ass.
True everyone other than Kendrick and i hated his last album also but all the rest was Just hyped off his success
West coast gangster shit
TDE’s weakest link
I dunno they all preatty fuckin weark.
worst rapper of the last 10 years, he only good on features
How can you see his face?
He actually had a I just had Sex face
I love Trailer Park Boys
For those saying he is TDE weakest link yall sound dumb…All of TDE artist dope. and UNIQUE……. I think Jay Rock and his production choices can be suspect at times. but he is dope. right now im diggin TDE singers over the rappers except for Kendrick …SZA, Sir and Lance doper… they need to to keep expanding singers….. there is a rennaisance of new dope young singers coming like the 90’s when Erykah, Lauryn Maxwell D”angelo came……West Coast rap back on the way out again
You can thank Toronto for that
If he had dr dre to produce his whole albim that would be great.
Jay Rock is dope
Actually my fav TDE Artist
Hes just a True West coast rapper, I dig that
I think he just need to find a great producer.if dr dre can produce a album for him i think that would be dope
Jay Rock is the weakest link from TDE. He is like the U-God or Sheek Louch from TDE. Not enough talent and poor choice of beats. Give it up rapping aint your thing
And hip-hop aint your thing lil man. Don’t speak when you don’t know what you’re speaking on.
He better than sheek.he nice he can rap.his last album he improved
He’s not better then sheek both garbage tho
Jay rock is dope. His debut years ago had amazing beat selection, better than Q or Dot.
.
Dope, his last projects were fire.
I’m a fan of jay rock he can spit he might not be lyrically as the other be he can rap
Love Jay Rock. His first album was great with some dope beats. not a big fan of the second album though… But he’s a great rapper. Still diggin’ his verse on the “Gang Bang Anyway” song from The Game’s album Documentary 2.
Jay Rock is weak he has some OK music and that’s only because of good production
Q > Kendrick > Jay Rock
Jay Rock is damn near the best from TDE!
90059 was a classic so underrated. I’m listening to Redemption right now and this shit is straight fire! Rock is still growing! I’m sorry if y’all think that he’s trash, nine times out of ten you think Lil Pump is the ?!
