MMG rapper Wale recently announced that he will release a mixtape titled Festivus prior to his forthcoming album, The Album About Nothing.
In a new promotional visual released by Complex, Wale ponders his next move in the studio. The Gifted rapper acknowledges his peers J. Cole and Nicki Minaj releasing albums this year while he flips through a variety of channels on a television.
Throughout the clip, the voices of several Seinfeld cast members can be heard intertwining with Wale’s poetic thoughts. As Wale turns the channel to a Seinfeld episode, the origin of his mixtape’s title can be observed.
Festivus spawned from a Seinfeld show in which Jerry and the cast come up with a fictional holiday. Wale has chosen to release his mixtape on December 23, the same day the characters celebrated Festivus.
