Pusha T – Fear of God II: Let Us Pray (Full Album Stream)

Honoring today’s release, Rolling Stone offers the full album stream of Pusha T’s Fear of God II: Let Us Pray. The G.O.O.D. Music representative also sat down with the magazine in order to answer a few questions. Here are some excerpts of the conversation.

Fear of God 2 builds pretty naturally on the mixtape you put out earlier this year. What was your goal for the follow-up?
My goal was actually just to put the body of work together. The new record was going to be just things that I leaked to the Internet, but I figured that the fans should get it in a better way, rather than just having to download the whole record from off of HulkShare. This is just street music. It’s for the street, it’s for the fans. As soon as the records are done, I usually just give them out anyway, to keep the energy and the intensity going.

One of the standouts is definitely “Amen” with Kanye and Jeezy. How did that track come together?
It was something that Jeezy had. These collaborations had a lot to do with fans and fan demand. Everybody, for some reason, wants to hear Clipse and Jeezy. Everyone wants to hear Clipse and Rick Ross. Who knows why? I’m gonna say I don’t know, actually. [laughs] But everybody wants to hear the spin on it, man. This project was so much about me giving people what they wanted and showing people the alliances and the affiliations. I’ve never been a solo artist, so I sort of felt like I needed to be ushered into the solo realm of music and compete with the best. These guys really came through for me.

Any idea when your full-length will come out next year? Are you done with it?
No, no, I’m not done with it. I’m definitely not done with it, but what we’re dropping first is the G.O.O.D. Music compilation. I’ve done at least seven songs for my full-length, and for the G.O.O.D. Music record, I’ve done four. I don’t know what’s going to land and what’s not going to make it on, I’ve done four thus far, and I’m pretty sure I’m doing more. Fear of God Part I and Fear of God Part II, is just the prelude.
