Drake Announces Release Date And Apple Exclusive For Views From The 6

Today in Tha Wire Drizzy has finally announced the released date for his new album, 'Views From The 6.' The fourth studio album from Drake drops April 29. HOWEVER according to reports for the first seven days it'll only be available on Apple Music's iTunes. After that is free game for everyone else.

No surprise there, beings in 2015, Drake signed a $19 million deal with the tech giant. So as one could expect, just about everything he does will go through Apple. His duet project with Future, 'What A Time To Be Alive,' dropped via Apple, plus he's currently running his OVO Sound show on Apple's Beat 1 radio now as well.

Be on the lookout, Drizzy's 'Views From The 6' is coming at the end of the month!

In other news another project on the way is a special duet album featuring Faith Evans and the late Notorious B.I.G. Faith sat down with Hip Hollywood to give and update on the LP.

Faith said the album will be reminiscent of the Natalie and Nat King Cole duet album, 'Unforgettable.' She also revealed that the album would feature unreleased music too. So I for one can't wait to hear it. Speaking of which, there's is no word on when the 'King & I' will be released. So far the project is in it's last stages and all we know is it's possible that'll drop before the end of the year.

By the way, B.I.G. is scheduled to make a few appearances between now and then. Word has it the iconic late rapper's hologram is going to make it's rounds in music videos, even a couple of concerts before it's all over with. Matter of fact the word "hologram" is becoming obsolete. The new term is Humagram. That's right! Technology has come a long way since the Tupac rocked the mic and performed at the 2012 Coachella Festival.

The Notorious B.I.G. Humagram tour is coming soon and it's got the green for his mom, who says it's been a long time coming.

“This project has been a long-time coming, and it is very special to me,” Ms. Wallace told Billboard Magazine. “Words can’t even capture how elated I am for the world to finally see my son again on stage and beyond. Christopher’s impact and legacy will not only live through his past work, but also the new experiences which have been made possible through ARHT Media.”

Recently, Biggie’s daughter claimed Diddy “does nothing for her family,” despite a celebration planned for the late rapper at the Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on May 20th next month. I wouldn't be surprised if the “B.I.G. Humagram” pops up at Puff Daddy’s Bad Boy family reunion at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on May 20th. With it being his birthday it would defiantly be fitting.

Time will tell and I will be there to keep you posted. For all things entertainment tune into Tha Wire twice a day, every weekday at 12:50 p.m. and 3:35 p.m. on The Peoples Station 107 Jamz.
