Waka Flocka To Drop “Triple F Life” On June 12, Hits Road With Drake For “Club Paradise Tour”
(AllHipHop News) Warner Bros. Records and Brick Squad Monopoly have revealed a June 12 release date for Waka Flocka’s sophomore album, Triple F Life: Friends, Fans and Family.
Triple F Life: Friends, Fans and Family currently has two singles in rotation on radio – “Round Of Applause” featuring Drake, which was released last summer, and the Trey Songz-assisted “I Don’t Really Care.”
The latter is currently the #1 most-added song on radio, and there are plans to shoot a video for the single on April 10.
Triple F Life: Friends, Fans and Family is set to include features and appearances from B.O.B., Tyga, Drake, Trey Songz, Ludacris, and more. In addition, Waka Flocka has just been added to the lineup for Drake’s second U.S. run of his “Club Paradise Tour” where the Atlanta rapper will travel to 27 cities over the course of two months and perform with J. Cole, 2 Chainz, and French Montana.
Waka’s first Warner Bros. release, Flockaveli, was touted as “the most anarchic rap album of 2010” by The Washington Post, and “one of the most bracing and unforgiving Hip-Hop releases in recent memory” by The New York Times.
Flockaveli produced four hit singles including the triple platinum cut “No Hands” which featured Roscoe Dash and Wale, “Oh Lets Do It,” “Grove St. Party” and “ Hard In Da Paint.” To date, the album has sold over 300,000 copies.
Tickets and dates for the “Club Paradeise Tour” can be found at LiveNation.com. Triple F Life: Friends, Fans and Family is scheduled for a June 12 release.

VIDEO: Dee-1 Surprises Two Fans Who Missed His Harvard Show
Dire-hard Dee-1 fans Eric and Chris drove a few hours to see Dee-1 perform at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts recently.
Unfortunately, according to Dee-1’s camp, the fan-tastic duo read the concert flyer wrong and arrived several hours after the show had already ended. Being the good guy that he is, the rapper/activist didn’t send them home disappointed. Watch the video below!
