Cordae shares inspiration behind new album
Cordae reveals the main inspiration behind his new album, The Crossroads.
On Thursday (November 14), a day before the album’s release, Cordae took to social media to discuss its creation process, which is centered around a piece of advice he received from Lil Wayne.
“The Crossroads is finally out tonight,” the post read. “My whole mantra while making this body of work has been push that pen, push that pen.
“The GOAT, Wayne, gave me great advice that I put on a whiteboard, ‘Treat every song like it’s people’s first time hearing you.’ And that was the standard we followed while making this joint.”
The former YBN collective member advised his fans to “listen to it from top to bottom in its order.”
“[B]ut honestly a lot of you n-ggas don’t follow instructions anyway,” he added, “so please just enjoy and pay attention.”
