Shy Glizzy dropped a video for “Volcano” last month and now he announces his new album Covered N’ Blood.
The Glizzy Gang rapper took to his Instagram account with the artwork and a release date of April 19th.
Shy Glizzy said this in an interview about the project:
“It’s a deep, deep album. It’s a really deep album. A lot of my music is like a diary. This one is about what I’ve been going through the last few months.”
He added this about the passing of Nipsey Hussle:
“I hope more people can learn from his example, being entrepreneurs and moving differently out here, being more careful. My mission has always been bigger than music. I feel similar to Nipsey because I’ve always stayed around my people, stayed independent and everyone in the game wanted to sign me, just like Nipsey. I stayed Glizzy Gang, I’m the CEO of my own company. I ain’t signed to nobody. I can’t fall as long as I’m in control. That’s what I respect most about him, independence and leadership. That’s how I’ve always been. R.I.P. Nipsey.”
Covered N’ Blood follows Glizzy’s 2018 body of work Fully Loaded, which contains 19 songs and features Young Thug, NBA YoungBoy, Lil Uzi Vert, Rick Ross, Smokepurpp, Gunna, Lil Durk, and more. The Washington rapper’s new LP will have only two guest appearances.
