However, earlier this week, while promoting new single “On Up” on Instagram, he said the album was coming “soon.” When a fan asked him, “Why you saying album soon like it’s not suppose to drop on the 9th?” Sean blamed scheduling issues for having to push the album back. “I gotta push it just a lil’ bit. Music done, but jus organizing listening events, shows etc. Might need an extra week or 2 to plan,” he replied.
Some fans tried to blame his former label boss Ye (formerly Kanye West), but Big Sean went on Instagram Live to clear those rumors up, assuring fans, “I know he ain’t do that s—t. I love Ye. Without him, there would be no me.”
He added: “I been there since Graduation. I got to study, contribute, give energy to every project. 808s, Beautiful Twisted… I know he wouldn’t do that, that’s trash. So whoever did do that, just know it did f—k me up”

Although, the album isn’t coming this week, Sean has been feeding his fans. He’s released the singles “Yes” and “On Up,” so far, and he’s teased a song with The Alchemist and killed an On the Radar freestyle over Aaliyah’s “If Your Girl Only Knew.”
Some fans thought he was dissing Kendrick with the lines, “I got better things to do than find someone to beef with/ Or else I’m off the deep end/This game will take you either way, you know it’s offense-defense,” but he quickly cleared the speculation up. “Yall goin wit so many narratives, im talking to da haters who just keep finding something to point out they dont like bout me,” he wrote in a since-deleted tweet. “Its not even worth explaining tho im a just focus on the music.”
