Being almost 10 years ago since Wale dropped his debut album, Attention Deficit, the rapper has went on to hit a new milestone that not many can say they have seen. Over the past several months, Wale has made it known that his attention has been on completing and perfecting his newest studio LP, Shine. Even with that focus, that didn’t stop him from dropping some freebies and material from the album, along the way.
Now, an entire week earlier than previously scheduled May 5 release date, Wale has decided to unleash the new wave of sounds and energy. Comprised of 14 tracks in its entirety, Wale has even called on some help from some industry friends. Getting down on tracks with Travis Scott, Lil Wayne, Major Lazer, and more, the rapper provides a well-versed mixture of tunes that will get fans through the next year or more as Wale gives most of his focus to Shine.
More than two years since we’ve received an album from him, the wait is finally over. Taking center stage, it’s his moment to Shine. Listen to the new project on Apple Music.
