Warren G To Drop New Single “Life Is Beautiful”, Announces EP “On The Way”

Rapper Warren G is set to drop his new single Life is Beautiful on Super Bowl Sunday, as part of his new EP which is still in the works. The Long Beach native made the announcement on Instagram Sunday, with the caption “Life Is Beautiful 2/13/22 Single Off The Upcoming Ep,” confirming that a new project is on the way.

The release date of Super Bowl Sunday shouldn’t come as a surprise, since Warren G’s stepbrother Dr. Dre will be performing at the halftime show. Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, and Mary J. Blige will also be performing.

Warren G took to social media to tease his own Super Bowl LVI event as part of a collaboration with the NFL. “About to drop something special #SBLVI Sunday in collaboration with @NFL,” he wrote. “Check out #ThisIsLA on @NFLGameday Morning at 9AM ET on @NFLNetwork @icecube @warreng @xzibit @bigboy”.

In another post, Warren G shared a snippet of the video for Life Is Beautiful, with the cautionary lyrics “Life is beautiful, Don’t ever say you can’t try,” he raps. “Doing evil like you can’t die, cuz evil out here tryna murder everybody.” The icon also warned, “You do a murder, you get murdered next.”
