It’s a welcoming sight too see August Alsina back in good health and doing interviews again. Its been about 4 years since his last project, but recently he jumped back on the scene with his latest EP “Forever and a Day,” which can be streamed on all platforms.
August hasn’t really been one for the interviews even early on in his career, but he became less noticeable the more ill he became. He had to deal with many ailments such as vision problems, kidney problems, and immune system problems. Many of these things played a role for his disappearance, but the major reason why he went ghost on us was that he and his label Def Jam were having problems with releasing his music. August last single on Def Jam was in 2017 “Don’t Matter” which lead to speculations that a new album was coming. But soon after August took to social media to vent about his frustration with his label.
But two years have passed and now August is releasing music independently, and he’s doing a pretty good job. In the interview, August opens up about recently losing his sister to cancer and having to father his three nieces now. While also figuring out a way to rise back to dominance in the music industry. You can check out the video down below to hear him have an emotional conservation about everything going on in his life.
