    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.”

    Cordae doesn’t want music to be judged solely from sales

    Cordae claims that he is not concerned about first-week album sales. Just a couple of days before the release of his new project The Crossroads, the rapper shared his thoughts on X (formerly Twitter) and seemed not to bother with the commercial performance of his new release.

    “Want to say this now I don’t give 1 fuck about a first week sale. It’s a very inaccurate way to calculate impact, especially with the current streaming metrics. I seen somebody do 11K first week and then do a ARENA TOUR off the same album. That’s the end of my Ted talk *2nd one.”

    He continued: “N-ggas said my last project first week numbers wasn’t good and I ended up doing a sold out headline world tour….”

    Snoop Dogg doesn’t mind other people writing music for him at this stage of his career

    Snoop Dogg recently showed up at Rap Radar Podcast where he talked about letting Cordae write for him on “We Ain’t Gotta Worry No More,” a track off his album BODR.

    “I started off writing,” Snoop said. “I started off writing for Dr. Dre, so what would I be if I didn’t allow somebody to write for me? Sometimes you gotta put yourself in the frame of letting somebody else depict a better picture for you because you can’t see everything.”

    He continued, “I feel like Whitney Houston’s best record was The Bodyguard, when the other people came in and gave her records that weren’t hers, where she could just sit back and just sing and they embodied what they thought she should be.”

    “That’s to the point in my career where I’m at now, where I’ve written so many hit records,” he continued. “It’s not about what I can write sometimes, it’s about what I can’t see that somebody else can write for me.”
