The new Clipse album is almost here.

Pusha T has confirmed that the next long-awaited Clipse album is finally done. He discussed the project and his union with No Malice while speaking with Ari Melber for Saint & Citizen’s “Saint Sessions Live” event at Art Basel in Miami. In doing so, he revealed that he already has the full album on his phone.

Push began by discussing the state of hip-hop and the next Clipse project as a whole. “There are no duos in rap today and lyric driven hip-hop lives,” he explained, as caught by Complex. “You will get to see how hip-hop and street hip-hop matures. It’s been 15 years since we dropped an album….I just think that people are going to witness greatness. This is a chemistry, this is a brotherhood, and when I say that, I mean Pharrell as well. He produced it from top to bottom." From there, he reacted to complaints about how long the release is taking. “We take long, we always take long,” he started. “People be mad but its’ okay because it’s done I promise you that it’s done. It’s in my phone.”

Push and No Malice has been hyping up the release throughout 2024. Speaking with Vulture for a recent interview, Push said of the project: “I think the album shows the supreme maturation of a rap duo. I think this is where you get the difference between taste and filler. This music is curated. This is a high taste-level piece of work.”
