Pusha T's It's Almost Dry is finally here. The VA rap star's latest has been one of the year's most anticipated projects. The album boasts production from Kanye West and Pharrell Williams, and includes the singles "Diet Coke" with West, and the Pharrell-produced "Neck & Wrist" featuring Jay-Z.

"I’m trying to become the Martin Scorsese of street rap," Pusha told INTERVIEW. "I want that brand." In that same conversation, Pusha addressed those who criticize him for still making coke raps after two decades of music.

"I have to tune it out," he explained. "Everything that’s being done right now is all out of love, all out of the competitive spirit, out of the honest act of living a lifestyle. My parents told me rap wouldn’t last 20 years."
