Through numerous Soundcloud releases, Lil Pump became one of the stand-out artists of this year. If it's not for his music, people are aware of his name through his wild antics on social media. At 17-years-old, he stood out from other Soundcloud rappers and paved his own lane, eventually dropping his debut album Lil Pump Tape and headlining his own tour. He only dropped the tape a few weeks a go but it's looking like he'll be following that project up in the near future.

In 2017 fashion, Pump confirmed on Twitter that he has another project on the way. The tweet read, "NEW TAPE ON THE WAY," followed my an emoji of fireworks. He's yet to reveal much more information on it other than that but he's definitely working to maintain his buzz right now. Most recently, he dropped the epic video for "Gucci Gang," and shortly after that, he previewed new music produced by OG trap producer, Zaytoven. We're not sure if the Zaytoven produced single will land on the project or end up a loose single but it definitely had a refined tone to Pump's work. It was also speculated that he had a collab with Lil Yachty and Lil B on the way after a picture of the three surfaced on social media.

The release of his first project helped propel his career to another level. Lil Pump Tape landed him a number one position on the Billboard's Emerging Arists charts and also debuted on the Top R&B/Hip Hop albums and the Top Rap Albums charts at number 2.

With the release of Lil Pump Tape in October, he just kicked off his first headlining tour. The tour started on Halloween in Los Angeles before taking a little break and picking the tour back up again on Nov. 19th in Phoenix. From there, he'll be on the road for more than a month, touching  before wrapping up the tour in San Diego on December 23rd.
