"Smith admits he’s now allowing himself the space to lean into his authenticity (or, in his words, “I’m granting myself the freedom to not give a **** when I don’t give a ****"). Part of that sounds like it's in the music he’s cooking up. It’s still an extremely shadowy project, but he described one record he’s working on called “The Mountaintop.” “The idea is...I’ve been to the top of money, I’ve had all the sex that I’ve ever wanted, I’ve had all of the adoration,” he said. “I’ve been to the top of all those material world mountains and nothing makes you happy other than being useful to others. That’s it. That’s the only thing that ever will satisfy that thing, is that what you’re doing is useful.”"

I got the tidal trial just to listen to this. It’s one of the best interviews he’s ever done...lots of JJFP and music talk... they had a different theme song for fpoba done by someone else and 3 days before jeff came up with that.

jive rejected the first he’s the dj album they submitted..so they went back and did parents, nightmare etc and then they ended up combining the two albums..

will is cursing because nov 6 his dad died then nov 7 trump was elected and it changed his mindset on things..

he has 7 songs and is aiming for 14 for the new album..

he has a lot to say on the new album..

he wants to make music that helps people

Well basically I don't have a problem with him cursing because he's grown but it's just the principle that he built a rap career off of being a family friendly rapper, I believe a core fan base will get turned off, now if this sounds like the average pop rap album I'm gonna be turned off too...

In other words I could live with cursing if it's like a krs album but if it sounds like a drake album I ain't bumping it n I'm sure his core fans feel the same will should be true to real hip hop do an album with Jeff n f what these pop rappers are doing they're just as lame as trump
