Joyner Lucas: The lyrical rap heavyweight reveals the process behind dropping his random fire
There’s no doubt - Joyner Lucas is nice-nice when it comes to the wordplay, putting out fire singles, must-see music videos and of course full-fledged studio albums. But rarely do you get the chance to get into his state of mind with the creative process - well, until now, of course.
Joyner Lucas explains his state of mind with putting out new tunes
Lucas hit up his Instagram page to keep things 100 with how he’s releasing new audio gems. Instead of fluffing up his words, Joyner detailed his motivation behind putting out songs seemingly at a moment’s notice.
‘Here’s the truth. I started the album over 2 years ago. I finished it about 5 months ago. Wanted to create something different than the typical joyner so I started experimenting. I dropped a few records and a lot of the feedback I was getting wasnt too good. I realized that over 70% of the music on there was a little too left field. After hearing some of your feedback on a few joints I decided to scrap the album and restart over again and that’s what I been doing. I had a lot of features from artists i feel you wouldn’t have wanted to hear me collaborate with.
So now I am creating the album in real time and I’m constantly adding to it. I’m listening to your opinions on what you don’t like and what you like and im scrapping things and replacing it with other things that I know you will love. I know you’re frustrated with the wait and I apologize. I love going againts the grain and doing things in an unconventional way. I wanna say I love and appreciate everyone of my supporters who have been supporting me.
Thank you for all the continued love and for going so hard for me. Pause. ♥️❤️ I’m going to continue to release records at random until I feel like it’s complete. I promise when I drop I will leave a lot of unreleased records on there. I love you and I’m sorry.. #NOTNOWIMBUSY’
