“I’ve been locked in with No I.D. That’s my sh-t. I grew up on Beans, Kiss, Cam, and sh-t like that. So, that’s my sound,” East told Billboard in May. “I call this the turn-up times. I don’t care about all that. You can’t wake up and want to do that 24 hours. So, I wanna be that dude that’s creating music for those real life situations.”

The Nas protégé let loose the Hate Me Now tape in 2015 and then returned in 2016 with Kairi Chanel.

East is currently pushing his single “Perfect” featuring Chris Brown.
