Big Sean is another hip-hop singer who rose to great heights in the last few years and now he has a huge fan following which is waiting for his fourth studio album entitled ''I Decided.'' This album is all set to be released on Feb. 3.
He sang two songs from his upcoming album on Jan. 21 on the TV show ''Saturday Night Live.'' The first track "Bounce Back" has already become a popular number. According to The Detroit News, the rapper performed on a smoky stage. The second single which he sang "Sunday Morning Jetpack," seems to be inspired by Kanye West's album ''The Life of Pablo.''
Sean has a long association with West. He had signed with West's GOOD music in 2007 and they have rapped in numerous songs together. West had a guest appearance on the first album of Sean and they rapped together in another single ''Mercy'' which was released on April 6, 2012. Sean and West had sung this song for the compilation album ''Cruel Summer'' of GOOD Music. Pusha T and southern rapper 2 Chainz too were a part of this single too.
The fans of Sean are very happy with this news as his third studio album ''TWENTY88'' in collaboration with Jhené Aiko was released on Apr. 1, 2016. And within a year one more album is on its way. His inclusion in Rihanna's ''Anti World Tour'' signifies his growing popularity as a singer.
According to Rolling Stone, the singer was in a reflective mood and he added on the chorus, "Thank you God for all my setbacks. 'Cause he the reason I'm able to give back. This feels like my Sunday morning jetpack. Feel like I sent the prayers up and got blessed back."
If the fans look at his musical journey, it has not been very smooth. His first studio album ''Finally Famous'' was released on June 28, 2011, after going through a lot of troubled waters. Before his solo album was released, he was already famous in the hip hop arena through his mixtape entitled ''Finally Famous: The Mixtape'' which featured Bun B, Chip tha Ripper, Curren$y, Tyga, Drake, Mike Posner, Chuck Inglish, Asher Roth, Dom Kennedy and Chiddy Bang.
His second mixtape hosted by Mick Boogie was called ''UKNOWBIGSEAN'' and was released on April 16, 2009. It had three popular songs of Sean including "Million Dollars", "Get'cha Some" and "Supa Dupa." His third mixtape was released on Aug. 31, 2010 was called ''Finally Famous Vol. 3: BIG.''
Meanwhile, Sean had gained so much of popularity that he decided to release his second studio album ''Hall of Fame,'' on Aug. 27, 2013. Finally his third studio album ''Dark Sky Paradise'' took him to the pinnacles of success and he debuted atop the Billboard 200 rankings. This was his first No.1 album which made him a household name worldwide. This album was released on Feb. 24, 2015, and ever since, Sean has been churning one album each year.
He has successfully completed three world tours ''I Am Finally Famous Tour'' in 2011, ''Detroit Tour'' and ''Hall of Fame Tour'' in 2014 and the fans can expect to hear him live again after his fourth studio album is released and he wears his traveler's shoes one more time.
Until the album is released, listen to the new track ''Bounce Back.''
