Pusha T may very soon be collaborating with the critically acclaimed rapper Madlib, according to a Discord AMA that he took part in. Pusha T, who last released a studio album in 2018, said that he's working on three new projects which include collaborations with rappers Madlib and Tyler, The Creator. During the Discord AMA session, Pusha T was asked when he would have a new album coming out to which he answered by saying he was "working on that right now". He further elaborated saying, "I'm actually working on three projects right now. So, you know, with everything that’s going on in the world right now, of course, we’re not all together, but I’m well in on my next project. Well, well, well, well in on the project."
He then added that the record was unlikely to feature any guest appearances, but also revealed that he is working with fellow rappers on some other material. "We’re cooking. That’s really all I can really say about it," he said of his highly-anticipated Madlib collaboration. He continued, "With producers, to me, it’s like I’m going to school so he’s just like another teacher to me." Pusha said the collaboration could release in 2020, noting that the pair already have "a hard drive full of gems".
Pusha T also talked about working with Tyler, The Creator saying he had worked on four or five out of nine beats Tyler had sent him although he wasn’t sure what the plan was for their usage at present.
