Statik Selektah has tried his hand at just about everything hip-hop has to offer throughout his eight-album career. For his ninth album, Billboard can confirm on Wednesday (March 4) that the superproducer will be exclusively teaming up with Mass Appeal.
“Mass Appeal and I have always seen eye to eye with how hip-hop should be represented, and this album is another chapter in that,” Statik Selektah tells Billboard of the new endeavor, which will be titled The Balancing Act. “Bringing my management team at Roc Nation in with Mass Appeal is aligning two of the most authentic brands in hip-hop to ever do it.”
TBA is slated to be a star-studded affair, with appearances expected from Nas, Griselda, Joey Bada$$, 2 Chainz, Dave East, Method Man, and more. “The collaborations are already really powerful,” he adds. “I’m sure rounding out the album, it will get even more special.”
In the meantime, Selektah is still holding down his spot hosting Shade 45’s ShowOff Radio every Thursday night on the Sirius XM airwaves.
Look for The Balancing Act to release this summer.
