    TDE is very traditional in their rollouts. With a big interview that let the writer listen to the whole album, which is clearly finished, and a single and video tonight, this will definitely be out in June. No reason to be paranoid.

    So did he say a date or did he just say June

    I'm nervous for this man fr. I lowkey had the thought that he could end up like Mac after hearing he almost got dropped from the label but I had no idea it was still this bad

    Been going through my own s*** with d****, depression and death lately so I know this album about to hit super hard

    Single is amazing, reminds me of A Lot in the best way. It’s a perfect smoking on an empty stomach soundtrack

    Almost at the finish line. This was one hell of a (annoying) ride but I’m excited for what’s to come in these next 2 months. Just got a peek at the album cover yesterday. Things are coming together nicely finally

    Can you give a hint about the cover? Even something small like what color is on it or a comparison to other album covers?

    I know this is your shtick but it's pretty obvious from this interview that the album is releasing in June. We'll most likely get a date within the next few weeks.

    That's why everyone at TDE is so loyal to them despite TDE not being the greatest at keeping a label afloat. They really do care about their artists.

    The first song on The House is Burning is fittingly titled “Darkseid,” and it moves with a midnight-of-the-soul bounce. With beats that sound like they’ve been ripped from J Dilla’s Donuts and soaked in whisky, Rashad, once again, drags 4 a.m. despair into vivid daylight. He raps about praying, then offers the aside: “I heard they got new gods outside in this b****.” He wonders what he’s supposed to do, other than try to get rich. His pledges to keep his son safe are interspersed with handwringing laments about being scared to feel. He offers an existential rosary for the toddlers with purple hearts. Death is a familiar specter. Rashad eulogizes those destined to “die on the cardboard” and those bound to “die in the feds.” It vaguely recalls Kendrick Lamar in a Coen Bros comedy (think Tommy Johnson in O Brother, Where Art Thou?), but that comparison only makes sense because of a mutual gift for infusing life-or-death concepts with melodic lightness, a neck-snapping musicality to counter-balance the philosophical dread.

    And tomorrow someone will make a thread about how TDE is a bad label that's fumbling his career
