After exploding onto the music scene last year thanks to his platinum-selling record “My Shit,” and later receiving a co-sign from Drake & inking a deal with Atlantic Records last July, fast-rising Queens rapper A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie has seen a pretty meteoric rise to success over the past year or so and he's just getting started. Later this month, September 29th to be exact, the Queens rapper will release his highly anticipated debut album called The Bigger Artist, which is being led by the singles “Drowning” with Kodak Black & yesterday’s new release “Beast Mode” featuring PNB Rock & NBA Youngboy. At midnight, the album was officially made available for pre-order on iTunes, ultimately revealing the tracklist in the process.
Laced with 15 tracks in total, the follow up to last year’s TBA EP will feature guest appearances from Kodak Black, Chris Brown, Don Q, Trey Songz, PnB Rock, and YoungBoy Never Broke Again.
Speaking on the album, Boogie had the following to say about it:
“The album about to be crazy, man. September 29th. Shit is about to be different, man. I ain't gonna lie, it's gonna be different vibes, man. You see how I do love songs? It's gonna be those in there, but I threw different types of vibes in it that I don't really go on. So I got a song with Chris Brown on there, Trey Songz on there, I got 21 [Savage] on there, PnB Rock, NBA YoungBoy. It's about to be different, man. “
He later added that his previous projects are kind connected with the album, and that he's done doing mixtapes moving forward. “It’s gonna be kind of connecting to my other projects. Like, I started off throwing out Artist. I made that my first mixtape. Then, I threw out TBA, which means To Be Announced. Right now, it's The Bigger Artist. So it's all connecting. But I stopped doing that mixtape thing. I'm not really rocking with mixtapes no more. EPs and albums, that's it.”
