Wale sat down with Sway to talk about The Gifted due out June 25th (tentatively), working with Stokely Wilson of Mint Condition and his love for Seinfield and comedy.
Comedy’s art, man. The ability to make somebody feel something: that’s art,” Wale said. “However you look at it, whether you’re an author, a painter, a singer, a rapper, a spoken-word artist — art. So I see the art in the show. I see the art in the dialogue in the show, how you can conceptualize some of the conversations that they have on that show. It’s a lot of genius that goes into that, and I appreciate it.
Wale joined Power 105.1′s The Breakfast Club to speak on a number of things including how he earned $5 million last year, the Toronto Raptors announcer confrontation, his upcoming album The Gifted, upcoming business ventures, and more.

Wale went the usual “MMG grandiose video to announce the album” route to, well, announce that his new album The Gifted will (tentatively) drops June 25th.
