Big Sean Teases Next Album With New Collaborative Track With Ye

Big Sean recently hopped on an Instagram Live to share a snippet from his new album. Almost four years since the release of his previous album Detroit 2, the 36-year-old rapper took to Instagram to reveal to his fans that he is working on his sixth studio album. Amongst the tracks he is working on is a Ye-produced track titled "Fighting Fires."

Playing the unreleased track that is rumored to possibly appear on the upcoming Vultures 2 album from Ye and Ty Dolla$ign, Big Sean said that this would be the new album would feature some of the "best music" he's ever made. The artist also teased to fans that he might "just drop that bitch sooner than y'all think" and that in reality, he "really probably got two albums" worth of songs to release. He also told fans that it has been a difficult process but it is some of his best work, "You know what I love about this album? It’s so many different sides of me. It's multi-fucking-faceted, just like me. I meditate every morning, but I also got straps in the studio—not them straps; I keep guns. [This album] really represents what the f**k I've been going through for these past couple of years."

On the creative process, he admitted, "I've been having a hard f**king time, dawg, I'm. not gon' lie." He added, "Been in this bitch trying to finish an album and I'm kinda tired of overthinking it...And by the way, n***a, like me, I've been trying to be on some sober shit so a n***a out here raw-dogging his emotions, bro." He continued to share, "or no reason, either. I just stopped drinking in 2022 ’cause that shit was just fucking me up. Any of y'all who got like issues with shit, mentally, that motherf**king alcohol...it's a depressant so if you dealing with any anxiety like me, I always be thinking about what I gotta do, how I gotta do it, what’s next et cetera. N***a stay away from that alcohol, boy." During the Live, Big Sean also talked about fatherhood and how his and Jhené Aiko's son has been on tour with her and how that has been affecting him, "Actually, while he's been on the road with his mom, this is the longest I've not seen him. And that shit really, truthfully has been fucking me up super bad. Very bad, like very, very, just hard and depressing, you know? And like I said, that's another reason I quit drinking, 'cause shit, if you got a ounce of any that type shit, bro, that alcohol will bring it out of you, even like days after, for real. Alcohol is a depressant, you know, just like a lot of drugs are, so it gets you hooked, bro."
