Rick Ross is prepping his next album, Hood Billionaire, for release this fall. The new album is coming only months after the release of his previous project, Mastermind, and Rozay explained during a recent visit to “The Breakfast Club” why he wanted to get two albums out in one calendar year.
“I felt like I made two albums because it was two different feelings,” he said. “Mastermind was the type of album that I wanted to have a rich feel to it, I wanted it to have….nostalgia at the beginning, that throwback Puff feel midway through it…just certain energies.”
“This right here — this is my Geechi Liberace, there’s a gold ring on every finger, we’re holding the bottles in the sky letting the champagne run down our arm,” he said, describing the tone. “It’s just that feel-good record, a lot of 808s, real bass heavy and its gon’ feel different to you, so it’s gon’ feel like a full year from the Bawse.” He also promises another Jay Z feature on Hood Billionaire.
Ross just released “Keep Doin’ That” with R. Kelly, which he describes as a song that “the chicks gon’ be able to turn up too,” while “the bosses [can] lean on the wall a little bit.”
