Offset opens up about his upcoming solo album.
Now that Quavo and Takeoff have both dropped their solo albums, fans are patiently awaiting the arrival of Offset’s solo project. On December 14th the special day will arrive, but in the meantime, Set shares some details on the forthcoming album.
While speaking to Billboard, Set revealed the album will be feature-free, and something that he wants his fans to remember forever, and not just temporarily. According to Cardi B’s husband, the album will focus on real life events that have transpired, and not just money and fancy cars and clothes.
“I’m talking about relevant situations that have occurred over the last 18 or 24 months, like me being in the crash, my kids, my family time and me being married. There’s different parts of my life. The ups and downs of being in music, the feeling of people doubting me and being the underdog to becoming the big dog.”
“I’m not really talking too much about Pateks and Lambos because it’s not relatable. That’s almost like bubblegum rap now, how the people are accepting it. They just get two days of playing it, then it’s over with. This can last and people can feel it.”
“I’m really pushing my album to be a playlist and not an album, because a playlist is consistently being played for moves, exercises, and different things. With Spotify and all the streaming services, it’s all about who got the biggest playlist. So I was focused on making my album like a playlist. The format of what an album is in the books, isn’t what’s going on in 2019.”
“When I say I want a playlist vibe, I’m still giving you content with the songs — real shit that’s going on. It’s an album of what I’ve been going through here and there and what got me to this point.”
At the end of the day, Offset says he just wants the album to be successful, “I just want to do big numbers. To me, I don’t give a damn about anything but numbers.”
