Global icon and hip-hop artist Waka Flocka Flame is back and better than ever with his new album Flockaveli II, set to drop in early 2018 via Entertainment One (eOne). His first solo album release in five years, the "No Hands" MC returns to his trap roots with the album's first releases "Trap My Ass Off" and "Circles."
"This is the fourth time I've made Flockaveli II," says Waka. "I lost the original version when I lost my hard drives, and then I lost two more after that. With this version of the album I just did it." Despite the delays, Waka trusted his team, DJs and fans, with the end result being the Louney G-produced club anthem "Trap My Ass Off" to kick off the release, and the super personal and autobiographical "Circles." Produced by longtime collaborator Southside, "Circles" is the EDM-infused track featuring rapper Derez Deshon. The song was the only one that survived from the original Flockaveli II. "It's the only record I have ever made that I had tears in my eyes," explains Waka. "It reminds me of all the pain I overcame." Having recorded 42 different racks, it wasn't easy for Waka and his team to get down to the final 19 to make Flockaveli II. The album features some of Waka's longtime producers including Lex Leuger, Supa Mario and C Notes, as well as newcomers TurnUP Josh.For more information on Waka Flocka Flame visit www.wakaflocka.com.
