The rapper Big Sean has announced that the release date of his new album, Better Me Than You, has been rescheduled, so his fans will have to wait a little bit longer than they had anticipated.

Sean revealed the information in the Instagram post’s comments area on Monday, August 5.

He wrote, “BETTER ME THAN YOU ALBUM SOON!” in the caption.

In response, one user brought up Sean’s earlier August 9 publication date: “Why are you saying album soon when it’s not supposed to come out on the 9th?!”

“I gotta push it just a little bit,” Sean retorted. The music is finished, but planning listening parties, performances, and other activities can take an extra week or two.

Sean is taking in life lessons from one of the biggest actors in the world, Will Smith, while he completes the Better Me Than You rollout.

The Oscar-winning actor shares some wise words with the Detroit MC in a video of the two speaking that was uploaded on Sean’s TikTok. The actor has worked in the entertainment business for many years.

I refer to it as the “cliff top”—the point at which you transcend beyond the corporeal world. The opposite of rock bottom is cliff top. Sean nods attentively and listens intently as Smith warns him, “You need to get your shit together or you die, when somebody hits rock bottom and can go no lower.”

“The only options available to you are to find God or perish because there is nothing else in this world.”

The rapper commented, “@WillSmith dropping [gem emoji]’s,” under the video.

Big Sean made his acting debut in BET’s Twenties, which was written and created by Lena Waithe, following in the footsteps of Will Smith. In the 2023 House Party revival, he made another appearance as himself.

The 36-year-old has also been deeply engrossed in spirituality lately, and he just revealed that he is the author of a book on mental health.

To help people realize their greatest potential, the book Go Higher focuses on five disciplines for achievement, inner serenity, and purpose.
