Last year was iLoveMakonnen's breakout year, earning him a Grammy nomination for the Drake version of "Tuesday." On the red carpet, he's asked about his debut album, which he says should come out in June or July. If what he said holds true, Makonnen definitely won't go down as a one-hit wonder.
First, Makonnen says he's been working with Diplo and Skrillex, so expect the project to contain a few EDM bangers. As you can see in the above photo, Makonnen was a special guest at Diplo and Skrillex's MSG NYE party. On the rap side, he mentions his Drake, his OVO boss, and Snoop Dogg, who recently had Makonnen on his GGN talk show. He then casually name-drops Rihanna, saying they haven't hit the studio yet, but they've been working on ideas.
With a guestlist like this, anticipation is already sky-high for Makonnen's debut. Watch the interview below.
