While on the sets of his new video for ‘Marvin Gaye & Chardonnay‘, Big Sean was interviewed by Black Book Mag where they discussed, amongst other things, his plans for the next album. He hints that the sophomore disc will be out in less than a year and that the title will start with Finally Famous again.
Now that you’re officially ‘finally famous,’ will the Finally Famous title stick around?
I’ve been ‘finally famous’ since I was 17, but I just had to let the world know. It’s a lifestyle, it’s a way of living, I’m not saying it in the sense of “yeaah I’m famous,” I’m saying it in the sense of getting recognized for doing what I do, and I put “finally” in front of it because we worked our asses off. I think I’m going to call the next album Finally Famous with a subtitle. Just like I did the first three mixtapes with Finally Famous, I might do the first three albums as Finally Famous as well.Do you have the drive and discipline to become the “biggest artist on earth?”
Hell yeah I do. I’m gonna prove myself man, I’m gonna go hard. I’m gonna have a new album in less than a year, a new mixtape out in a couple weeks, and I’m still doing other tapes for other people. I’m gonna be that rapper. When I was looking at Biggie and Pac coming up, I wanted to be like them, and I’m going to be like for the younger generation. Somebody’s got to step up and do it.
