6lack's LP Becomes Personal Journey, Ditches DJ Drama
24 May
Summary
- 6lack initially planned an R&B mixtape with DJ Drama.
- Personal life events shifted the project's direction.
- He ultimately chose to narrate his own story.

R&B singer and rapper 6lack recently unveiled his latest LP, 'Love Is the New Gangsta.' This project marks a significant departure from 6lack's original vision for the release.
Initially, 6lack collaborated with the renowned mixtape host DJ Drama, aiming to create an R&B-infused Gangsta Grillz mixtape. This collaboration involved DJ Drama providing ad-libs as the project took shape.
However, life events turned deeply personal and reflective for 6lack during the creative process. This emotional shift led him to conclude that he alone should narrate the story of his album, leading to the final LP format.
