I don't even care that we have to wait that long. I mean we waited 2 years, 3 more months won't hurt. Plus we have a lot of promo (& possible features) coming up to keep us satisfied until the album drops.
What's bothering me is this:
1. She is releasing on a friday
2. She is releasing when Anaconda & BB are done slaying, and releasing 3 singles before the album is too much imo
3. I wanted the date reveal to be more special. Not Billboard or beatsbydre announcing it
However, she could release the winter urban-R&B smash just before the album which would be ideal if she's releasing that late.
