As we continue to wait for an official announcement regarding Kanye West's forthcoming album Good Ass Job, we've gathered some more leaked information about the record -- this time from producer DJ Premier.
Premier, who has worked alongside hip hop's finest including Jay-Z, Alicia Keys, Black Eyed Peas and Nas, spoke with The Red Bulletin recently, discussing West and gave him props for bringing sampling back to the forefront of music:
"Well, first of all, if you look at all of Kanye West's output, he actually did a lot to bring back sampling and make it cool again, even though he's more of a mainstream artist."
Premier goes on to discuss Good Ass Job, revealing:
"His new album is strictly hard beats and rhymes. He's totally done with electro. You're gonna be surprised [by] what you hear."
Good Ass Job is tentatively scheduled for a June release.
