Last week, Bryson Tiller dropped his sophomore album, True to Self, a month earlier than expected. In a recent interview with Billboard, Pen Griffey reveals the reason behind the decision. “I’ve been ready to get the music to the fans as soon as possible, so why not?,” Tiller said. “I can’t take the credit for that.
