Logic says substance rap ‘doesn’t pay the bills’

Logic reckons that his recent project Ultra 85 was a very important work for him personally, yet it did not produce the monetary reward he expected. He was en route to Detroit when he ran into TMZ journalists and revealed his plans to make more groovier, ‘turn up’ music in the style of the likes of Playboi Carti.

“What I’ve noticed is I’ve been on a run of doing super-Hip Hop music — that shit doesn’t pay the bills at all,” Logic explained.

“It’s because I made all my money before, doing pop and turn-up shit, and then I’ve been blessed enough to be a musician, to be able to make music from my heart. But next year I’mma fuck ’em up. I’m about to drop all this Playboi Carti trap, turn-up shit, and go get a bag and have fun.”

He continued, “I did my best, and I feel like it’s important to speak from the heart. But it’s okay to get money, too.”

Logic speaks high of his latest album

Logic recently released his latest album College Park and he is letting his fans know what he thinks of it. Recently speaking on his Story Time episode, the Maryland native said his album is in the same lane as Eminem’s groundbreaking 2002 film, 8 Mile.

“It’s like 8 Mile, expect it’s an album,” he said, before addressing Joe Budden’s recent statement calling for his retirement, “expect it’s not B-Rabbit, it’s B-Racial.” He continued, “It’s a good album and I think you guys are really going to like it.”

Logic‘s swan song LP has earned the Maryland rapper his 5th number 1 spot on the Billboard’s Hip Hop charts with 221,000 units. Hi previous #1s include Everybody, The Incredible True Story, Bobby Tarantino II, and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. The news is a sign of appreciation from his loyal fan base as the rapper enters retirement to embrace fatherhood. Not a bad way to go out.

The album was released to critical acclaim, ending a recent slump for the lyricist. His fans have compared No Pressure to his earlier Young, Broke & Infamous mixtapes. He welcomed a son earlier this year.

Logic is leaving music to be a great dad

Years ago, when rapping on the campus of the University of Maryland, Logic was working on making his dreams of becoming a top-notch rapper come true. He’s done just that. With five albums and over six mixtapes, the Maryland-native has dished out plenty of material for his fans. That is now coming to an end, as Logic announces his final album, produced by No I.D., No Pressure.

The album will be released on July 24th and will mark the end of Logic’s music career, as he wants to be a great father. Ironically, 11 months ago, Logic announced the birth of his newborn son with “No Pressure” freestyle. Coming full circle, we’re now getting the album, next week.
