Overview

• In the Apple Music 1 conversation posted Monday, she frames the album’s central question as whether drama pursues her or originates with her.
• She says she was born with an "anointed light" that draws intense reactions and can unsettle people.
• Discussing industry tension, she claims some female rappers "can't stand" her and compares them to "sophomores" while calling herself a "senior."
• She declares she is done trying to be unproblematic and that her "cockiness is being born again," signaling a sharper, less conciliatory persona.
• Due September 19, the album follows singles including "Imaginary Playerz," which samples Jay-Z’s 1997 track and, she says, received his personal green light at 4:44 p.m., as she also cites recent writer’s block and strain with Offset shaping this era.
