Wiz Khalifa, Big K.R.I.T., Smoke DZA, Girl Talk Announce Album, Share New Song

Wiz Khalifa, Big K.R.I.T., Smoke DZA, and Girl Talk has just announced that they will be coming together to release a collaborative album called Full Court Press.

In addition to the announcement, the group also released a new single from the upcoming LP, “Put You On,” as well as an animated video for the track.

Full Court Press is slated to release on April 8th and will consist of 10 tracks, four of which feature all four musicians. Currensy is the lone guest appearance on the album.

“These guys all go back with each other over 10 years, so it was just a great energy in the room,” said Girl Talk about the collaboration. “I wanted to have an environment where they could do what they do best; try out a bunch of different ideas and have fun with it. Wiz, K.R.I.T., and DZA all have very different styles. As a fan of each of them, I wanted to capture what it is that draws me to their music. It’s like with my previous albums, I’m trying to take pieces of all my favorite elements and then re-contextualize it into something new.”

Khalifa called the project “a dope experience” where “all our sounds together and make a true timeless classic.”

Smoke DZA added, “Getting together with my brothers Wiz and Krit, and adding Girl Talk to the mix is a perfect combo of swag, raps, weed and lyrics that can’t be duplicated.”
