Busta Rhymes hopped on social media this morning to announce his new album is complete with a bomb snippet. So all we can say is 2022 is looking good as the hip hop’s finest are lining up to show up and show out.
Fans of Busta Rhymes know he puts his life, blood, sweat, and tears into his music. We are talking straight acceleration, no breaks. So, reading Busta Rhymes stating that “New Album Done” means everything.
Busta Rhymes Adds Another Album
This upcoming record marks the Busta Rhymes’s 11th studio album release. After a two-year break, the announcement of this release was more than welcomed. This forthcoming album is following the artist’s 2020 release, “Extinction Level Event 2: The Wrath of God.” This news is pretty incredible given the wait time between ” “Year of the Dragon” and “Extinction Level Event 2: The Wrath of God.” Fans had an eight-year wait for the last album release. But, there is no doubt no matter the wait time, if Busta Rhymes is behind the album’s mic, the wait will be worth it.
Busta the Dragon
When it comes to crafting albums, Busta Rhymes is the beast. He never gives less than his best. He’s been elevating his artistry for 30 years. Still, after all those years of work in the industry, he continues to come with his A-game. His style is untouchable beyond duplication. If ever there was a blueprint for career longevity, then Busta’s got the scrolls.
What is the Secret of Busta Rhymes’s Albums Success?
Why does Busta Rhymes has such longevity in the music industry? Because every day the sun rises, Busta Rhymes is in the studio grinding the albums. In his words,
“I go into the studio because this is what I have dedicated my life to. 30-something years of dedicating my life to the studio.”
And the dedication shows.
Busta is Authentically Appreciative
Busta isn’t one to take all the shine for himself. Instead, he recognizes the teamwork that made his dream work. So, in the best fashion, while updating the masses on his project, Busta Rhymes took a minute to give credit to Dr. Dre and DJ Kay Slay. Also noted is his initiative to preview new music produced by an industry colleague Khrysis.
Who can be mad at that!
This Album Is Not The End For Busta Rhymes
Busta Rhymes is assuring his fans and followers this album thing is far from the end. This upcoming release is only one of many to come. As he candidly admits,
“I’m already recording for the next project and the project after that and the project after that. It’s a never-ending process.”
So it is! The dragon has spoken.
Currently, no additional details on the album are available. FM Hip Hop will provide the coverage as soon as the information drops. Salute to Busta Rhymes for being the example. And may he continue to be empowered to continue to create.
