Killer Mike then told the host that if his new album does well, fans may be able to hear the unreleased collaboration soon. He said, “There is another Killer Mike and Dre feature and all we gotta do is make this album go No. 1 and make the guys from the label really, really happy and I’ll be back next year… It’s about 12 minutes — seven and five. Stacks rap longer." He explains, "When you handsome all the girls like you you get to rap longer.”
The artist recently told Apple Music’s Zane Lowe that chose being a rapper over being a pilot, revealing that he was previously enrolled in flight school. He ultimately decided to seriously pursue rap instead. He also told Lowe that Michael “is [his] come-home moment musically," going on to call the album his "submission to God." "It is gospel, it is soul, it is funk, it is Hip Hop," he explained. Killer Mike elaborated, saying, "I was taught morality through the Black Southern Christian Church, which gave us the civil rights movement, the abolitionist movement, which gave us some of the most beautiful music ever. And I feel like I’m honoring that and I finally figured out my place."
