It’s been a long road to the top for Big Sean, but now, after a host of hit mixtapes, the Detroit rapper is finally getting his chance at stardom this June 21st with Finally Famous: The Album. In a recent video interview, Sean discussed how he approached his G.O.O.D. Music debut and its latest single “I Do It.” 
“Man, Finally Famous: The Album, I’m very excited about that shit,” he said. “You’ve got your whole life to work on your first album. All the stuff I’ve been through and all the stuff I’ve seen coming from the westside of Detroit, it’s unreal…What I’m proud of is that every song has its own life. Shit’s not the same, each song is different, especially the song ‘I Do It.’ I fucked with that because it is what it is; it’s not trying to be some other shit. It’s like a go hard song, like ‘Man, I do this shit. This is what I do,’ and I feel like that’s one of my taglines, so it was perfect for me. I feel like every great rapper [has a tagline]…so I feel like ‘I do it’ is that for me.”
Big Sean also discussed how he and producers No I.D. and the Legendary Traxster collaborated on “I Do It.” He explained that the title and concept came out of a cacthphrase that he threw around while in the studio with I.D. and Traxster.
“It was some real easy shit,” he explained. “I came through the stu[dio], and [the] motherfuckers hanging around me, and all I say is ‘Do it’ and ‘Boy,’ and all that silly shit…I kept saying that shit one day, and No I.D. was like, ‘Man, that’s the song.’ The next day I came in, the beat was done, and I was like, ‘Damn, y’all motherfuckers are really trying to do this’…’I Do It’ is definitely a song that has its own life, so I’m happy motherfuckers get to check it out.”

kanye setting sean up to fail its not a good like for him to come out the same time as wayne I’d rather he push the album back get a bigger buzzz and then drop then he wont have any excuses
He’s with Good Music so I don’t expect him to release a hip pop album…but then again…he is new to the mainstream and we all know what happens to new artists that go mainstream…*cough* Wiz *cough* garbage debut *cough*
Hi Hater!!!
I don’t think he’s that good. Not hating. I just don’t really see any extreme talent. Only thing he got it seems is his flow, which I think is pretty good. But his lyrics are sub-par.
GARBAGE BUBBLE GUM RAPPER WACK LIKE DRAKE MUSIC FOR COLLEGE WHITE GIRLS
I don’t see it with Big Sean. I tried. I listened to the mixtapes and just wasn’t impressed at all. But, I hope he does great though with this album.
Can’t wait till Finally Famous comes out. He may not be the best lyricist around but he’s got the charisma to back it up. Def supporting this dude.
So I guess music is more of a beauty pageant than a musical artform these days huh?
I think his album will be very average. His mixtapes were good but nothing special and this guy seems like a sellout to me.
