“I think I’m a throw a bbq 4 real that we can all end summer wit, cause this song give me that feeling! BETTER ME THAN YOU ALBUM SOON!,” he captioned a visualizer of the single.

One fan questioned Sean’s wording with, “Why u saying album soon like it’s not suppose to drop on the 9th !!!???!??” The 36-year-old responded, “i gotta push it just a lil bit. Music done but jus organizing listening events, shows etc. might need a extra week or 2 to plan.”

Last month, fans speculated that the album was leaked by Kanye West (a.k.a Ye), which Sean debunked.

“I know he ain’t do that sh*t. I love Ye. Without him, there would be no me,” he admitted during an Instagram Live in July.

“I been there since Graduation . I got to study, contribute, give energy to every project. 808s , Beautiful Twisted … I know he wouldn’t do that, that’s trash,” he added. “So whoever did do that, just know it did f**k me up.”

Big Sean recently dropped the video to “On Up” which is dedicated to his and Jhene Aiko’s son Noah.

The visual was directed by Lawrence Lamont, Noah’s God Father, and shot in the POV of the baby. The visual shows Sean and Jhené getting the baby from his crib and showing what a full day is like. Sean can be seen taking Noah for a walk, feeding him, and watching him take his first steps.
