Rap or Go to the League is 2 Chainz’s fifth studio album. Its title is a reference to the misconception of the African-American community that a young man’s only option is to pursue a career as either a musician or athlete. This concept actually applies directly to Chainz, who was a high school and college basketball player before ultimately deciding to pursue a rap career. The album includes features from Kendrick Lamar, Chance the Rapper, Lil Wayne, Travis Scott, Young Thug, Ariana Grande, Kodak Black, and more. On November 20, 2018, Chainz released a two-track EP titled Hot Wings Are a Girl’s Best Friend. One of the tracks, “Girl’s Best Friend,” appears on this album. On February 19, 2019, Chainz revealed the album’s release date and announced that it would be accompanied by an exclusive interview with LeBron James, which can be viewed here.
