G.O.O.D. Music’s Big Sean and Metro Boomin have some serious tunes on deck. The hip-hop duo are bridging their talent and putting together a new album called Double or Nothing.
While details are scarce, the rap star and hitmaker’s unexpected surprise release is expected to arrive sooner than later.
“To try to do it all by yourself — that’s the ego talking,” says Big Sean, pacing around one of the recording studios in a stylish rented house in Venice, Calif., near the ocean. He and superproducer Metro Boomin are playing songs from their joint album, Double or Nothing (coming soon), and they’re feeding off each other’s energy: Metro will scrunch up his face at certain lines of Sean’s, while the rapper will let out a spontaneous “Woo!” when Metro’s beats drop in.

Earlier this week, reports surfaced about Sean dropping millions on a California mansion.
The rapper made moves this week to buy the 7 bed, 8 bath, 11,000 sq. ft. Beverly Hills palace previously owned by the GNR guitarist. The pad’s been on the market since Perla, Slash’s ex, filed for divorce in 2014. Big Sean’s dropping $8.7 mil for the crib — a steal considering Slash originally listed it for around $11 mil and dropped it to $9.5 mil last year. (TMZ)
Recently, Sean’s girlfriend Jhené Aiko talked about feeling uncomfortable performing alongside her potential future hubby.
Maintaining a relationship with the rapper while balancing their demanding schedules is easy, she insists. “We trust each other, so there’s nothing to worry about,” Aiko says. “With cell phones, it’s easier. It’s like, ‘I love you, goodnight. Good morning, I love you, TTYL.’” Recently, the two performed the Trip song “Moments” on The Tonight Show, and their chemistry crackled. “It’s strange performing with him, because I think he’s so attractive that it’s weird for me to sing to him. I still have a crush on him,” she says. (Nylon)
Last month, pics surfaced of Jhené allegedly getting Sean’s portrait tattooed onto her body.
