Pusha T Talks Fear Of God Mixtape, Album & More On Shade 45

Earlier today, I had the opportunity to sit beside DJ Wonder and AJ The ManChild on Shade 45. Pusha T, who appeared to be in excellent spirits, was the special guest. We jumped right into the conversation which centered around everything from the new year to music to everything in between.

Pusha T talks about his New Years plans that went awry. More importantly, he went in depth about the vibe around his career since signing with G.O.O.D. Music. The album – which will feature production from Kanye, Swizz, Pharrell and more – is set to drop this fall, but in the meantime we can expect to see the Fear Of God mixtape next month. He promises it will be well worth the wait with old instrumentals, new ones and original production. To quote Pusha, he’s “taking that whole dynamic of  the ’95 mixtape competitive spirit and just going in on everything.”

The Virginia native proclaims none of the tracks from his mixtape will not appear his album and hopes this will expose him to fans from all walks of life. As far as the relationship with his brother Malice is concerned, they are “not breaking up” and he even sheds light on their recent touring in Australia and how much love they received. Lastly, he addresses why he has donned the name “Slander P.”
