It’s been nearly a year since Detroit rapper Big Sean struck gold with his debut album Finally Famous: The Album, and already the G.O.O.D. Music rapper has become a certified Hip Hop star. Now, with his crew’s project still on the horizon, Sean reveals that fans can expect his sophomore LP in stores later this summer.
In a recent interview with Mr. Peter Parker, Sean said that his second studio album will be out sometime this summer, with a single dropping later this June. He explained that with this next project, he focused on progressing both his sound and lyrical content. Although he did say that it won’t be in short supply of chart topping smashes, he wants this project to inspire his younger fan base.
“[The album’s] already almost done,” he said. “It’s coming out this summer…we’re about to drop the first single off it this month.
He added, “I feel like this album is gonna surprise people. I remember being on my solo tour when I was in Colorado. It was cold as shit, it was snowing, and this kid was outside my bus – he was like 13 years old. He was outside all day…so my manager was like, ‘Yo, you gotta meet this kid, he’s been outside all day.’ So we brought him inside the bus…we gave him a ticket to the show…we saw him after the show and we brought him backstage, and he was crying. He was like, ‘Man, you’re my hero, dawg. I just wanna make a better life just like how you did for your mom. Anything you tell me to do I’ll do’…so when that dude was crying, that’s when I realized that when you’ve got the mic and the crowd, you gotta say something or else that moment and that time will just be forgotten about and lost, so for this one, I’m really making music…[to] progress peoples’ minds and give young people an inspiration.”

So you’re judging him on previous work? Why do haters lack reading comprehension. Why don’t you wait until his next project to judge how inspiring it is as the article clearly states?

and when its not inspiring and its more of the same trash you’ll be nowhere to be found , fuck you, always believe what these idiots say
Do you not read at all? He just said, he feels like now he has to have more to say after FF was released. You should at least give him some credit for realizing that he does have a chance to say something real and not…Ass, Ass, Ass, Ass, Ass, Ass, etc
Big Sean is dope… Glad he got inspired by his 13 year old fan, in life you have to progress and grow. Proud of Big Sean, BOY!!!! G.O.O.D MUSIC, All Day!
