Ahead of his performance this weekend on Saturday Night Live, Big Sean has revealed his upcoming album I Decided. will feature Emine, Jhené Aiko, The-Dream and Metro Boomin.
The Detroit emcee shared the news Wednesday in an appearance on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 radio show, in which he also revealed he played the album for André 3000 in advance.
“Eminem was the only person I heard that could be on ['No Favors'],” Sean told Lowe, adding: "It reminded me of why I fell in love with Eminem’s work.”
While Kanye West isn't officially featured on the record, Sean revealed he has an uncredited cameo on the previously released song "Bounce Back," which includes portions of Ye singing in the background.
Sean "He’s given me a sense of work ethic that can’t be beat. He’s given me a sense of perfection of just making sure it’s the best. It’s not the best until it’s out, the best it can be. That’s my brother right there. That’s the one who saw the potential in me and stuck with me. He took me under his wing."
Elsewhere in the interview, Big Sean also explained the absence of "No More Interviews" on the album, revealing his label contract limits the amount of songs he can include.
I Decided., one of Variance's 50 Albums to Watch for in 2017, is out on Feb. 3.
