Big Sean Mixtape Announcement 2012 - YouTube

Dropping September 5th

Big Sean ‏@BigSean
We been working hard, everyday for the past 8 months... And I can honestly say that me, my label, my team are more than excited how my new album sounds. It's everything I want it to be n more. A true representation of what I stand for, what I believe in, how I live, great story telling, n great production. I took my time with it and it made all the difference. It will be coming out before the end of year and I can't fukkin wait. We'll be dropping the 1st track from the album very soon. BEFORE my album, the GOOD Music Compilation "Cruel Summer" is coming which is scheduled for next month (Sep. 18th). BUT before that...I wanted to give u guys this mixtape I have on deck, I feel now is the perfect time for it, I wanted to make sure my album was pretty much done before i gave u a mixtape. Its a completely different set of songs from my album n from the GOOD compilation and I think you'll appreciate it tho. The name of the mixtape is "Detroit" and it will be out Sept 5th.


FFOE :win:

thank mercy verse didnt help :russ:

Interestingly, I read somewhere that Sean didn't want to use that verse, and was like 'I don't wanna be doing the whole a$$ thing again' - but Ye made him use it

There's a tread about it somewhere

Wale didn't have a superstar cosign/label for his first joint, just imagine if Sean didn't come out the gate on GOOD Music with Ye,Nicki and Chris Brown on his first singles :huhldup:

Mark Ronson & Roc Nation....:yeshrug:

Is it true that your "Mercy" verse started out as a random freestyle for Kanye?

Yeah, I was really freestyling with Kanye backstage at the Watch the Throne tour and he was like, “Man, you got to say this on the record.” I was like, “Man, I ain’t about to say that. I just put out ‘A$$.’ I don’t need to be talking about no ‘ass-quake, ass-tate.’” But I just laid it to see how it sounded and then for a while, there were no other verses on “Mercy.”

It was just my verse and we were vibing to it, so it naturally fit on there. I don’t really write any of my raps down. The same, Kanye don’t write any of his raps down. Common. It’s easy that way. For me, personally, I figure I will lose some of the inspiration in the time of me writing it down or I’ll say it a certain way because I wrote it a certain way. When I go in there and do it, it’s easier for me.
