It’s Not Dry Yet

Pusha T And Jay-Z Cook Up A Fresh Batch Of Searing Bars On ‘Neck And Wrist’

by

It’s only a matter of time until Pusha T finally releases his anticipated fourth album, tentatively titled It’s Not Dry Yet. He’s spent all of 2022 promoting it through his own music or guest features, with both proving that he hasn’t lost a step and that he’s ready to enter his name into the Best Rap Album of 2022 conversation. So far this year, Pusha T has released the Kanye West and 88 Keys-produced “Diet Coke,” along with a video that features him beside West. He’s also contributed to Nigo’s recent album I Know Nigo! both as a solo act and as a member of Clipse, his rap duo with brother No Malice.

Now, Pusha T’s back with another presumed single from It’s Not Dry Yet and it features quite the heavyweight rapper. He and Jay-Z have reunited for their new song “Neck And Wrist.” It’s their first track since their 2016 release “Drug Dealers Anonymous.” As expected, “Neck And Wrist,” which is produced by Pharrell, includes raps focused on Pusha’s favorite topic while both rappers also take a moment to flex about their careers.

The new song arrives after Pusha T teamed up with Arby’s for a ruthless diss track, one that was reportedly worth over $8 million in advertising money, aimed at McDonald’s. As for Jay-Z, he’s set to co-produce the upcoming Netflix film Teddy, which will also be directed by Kid Cudi.

It appears that Pusha T is dangerously close to releasing his fourth solo album, which is reportedly titled It’s Not Dry Yet. So far we’ve received one single: the Kanye West- and 88 Keys-produced “Diet Coke.” Pusha also dropped a video for the track and it features an appearance from Kanye, who dances beside him throughout the visual. More recently, Pusha teamed up with DJ and fashion designer Nigo for their new song “Hear Me Clearly.” After the song was officially released, Pusha shared a devastating comment that he received from Pharrell.

“Fun Fact: @pharrell heard this song and told me ‘it’s cool, but I don’t want you to be a mixtape rapper for the rest of your life,’” Pusha wrote in an Instagram post. “I was devastated. He then flew me to Miami and proceeded to produce the first half of the best album of the year.” He concluded, “Moral of the story…always ‘push’ your friends to be greater, even when they’re the greatest.”

Pusha previously confirmed that Pharrell and Chad Hugo, who make up the famed duo The Neptunes, and Kanye West will produce his next album. The Neptunes will produce the first half while Kanye will take on the second. West previously produced Pusha’s first solo album My Name Is My Name, while The Neptunes produced albums by Clipse, the former hip-hop duo of which Pusha was a part alongside his brother No Malice. Pusha also revealed that the album will contain a feature from Jay-Z.
