Amir Obe announced plans to drop a series of EPs leading up to his debut album. Over the past few months, Amir Obe has kept his word and released two EPs as part of his Can't Be A ____ Here series. The rapper dropped off his single "Famous" at the beginning of the month and over the weekend, he blessed fans with the third chapter of his EP series.
Amir Obe is back with Can't Be A ____ Here: Chapter 3. The singer took a step back from the spotlight for a moment so his latest EP series is like a reintroduction to some of his fans who've been out of the loop. Amir Obe recently spoke to us about the process behind his EP series. The singer revealed that he had 10 tracks already created, but decided to break it down for fans.
"I'm taking you the journey as it was created," he said. "You're going to hear it as it was made. I think it's a perfect segue into the debut album."
Peep the new project below.
