He said, ā€œThemā€™ in my album title, is anyone that ever didnā€™t believe [in me] at any point in time.

ā€œThe way the name of this album came up is because one random day, I just went on my Twitter [page], and I started scrolling down to my old tweets. I wanted to see what the first tweet I ever tweeted was, for some strange reason.

ā€œAnd then it just sent me down this rabbit hole, where Iā€™m just looking at everything I ever said. Iā€™m like, wow! Itā€™s crazy. I really did say all these sh*ts that is happening now. And that kind of made me to name my album, ā€˜I Told Themā€™.

The album would be released on Friday, August 25, 2023.
