Sean Don is giving fans a sample.
Big Sean is ready to share his new album with fans. The rapper has been through a lot to get Better Me Than You made. He had to struggle through album leaks, personal setbacks, and health scares. He even considered delaying the album and reworking what he already had. In a recent Instagram Live, however, Big Sean confirmed that he would be giving the album to the fans in its original form. It turns out, Sean is giving us two new songs in advance as well. The rapper shocked Soundcloud users on Wednesday night by dropping a pair of Better Me Than You standouts.
The first song, “Fighting Fires” was teased as a Kanye West collab. Big Sean previewed the song way back in July, but West is no longer on it. The new version gives fans an update on where the rapper is at in his life. Big Sean raps hard over a soulful, drumless beat, reflecting on his career and how he stacks up against peers. It has a mature feel, which aligns with the way that Big Sean has been moving during the Better Me Than You rollout. It really seems like he’s moving differently than he was when he was younger. A song like “Fighting Fires” is sonic proof.
