00:02 ♪ Oh, what up y'all ♪
00:08 When I made the statement about Food & Liquor
00:10 getting pushed back because of the leak,
00:12 it was more for the company's sake,
00:14 you know, what Atlantic might do, you know what I'm saying?
00:16 When they look at it, 'cause normally when an album
00:18 leak or something like that, like,
00:19 they'll take time to push it back and see,
00:21 especially being so early, like,
00:22 leaking two and a half months, you know what I'm saying,
00:25 before the album comes out.
00:26 So it was just a statement to make
00:29 for my fans to set 'em up, like,
00:30 yo, the album might get pushed back, you know,
00:32 but had a meeting on it, you know,
00:35 did some little damage control and stuff like that,
00:36 so it's still scheduled for June 27th in the US,
00:39 June 26th in the UK.
