“When you have the mentality that you gotta stay hungry, gotta stay on people’s necks, gotta stay hot and all of that, you kinda neglect yourself a little bit,” the rapper recently told Angie Martinez. “I did that for like, years and years and years and years and then all of a sudden it really started catching up with me and I realized, man, I can’t even deliver my best if I’m not nowhere close to my best. So, I just needed to take some time for myself.”

In a reflective New Year’s post, Big Sean shared that 2020 is about to be a crazy year. “Thank u for a decade that changed my life,” he began. “Through the the ups n downs I managed to do the impossible where I’m from n became one of the top selling hip hop artists of the decade, 52 million records sold n counting, ain’t even dropped no project in the last couple years. Like I said on my 1st album ‘never made da crowds fans, I made them all fam’. N I apologize for the distance n lack of communication but life is life. 2020 we back goin hard tho, f*ck all dat otha sh*t ??.” Are you ready for the Sean Don takeover?
