Slaughterhouse has gone through plenty of push backs for their sophomore effort, but they have all been with good intentions. The group’s recently released single “My Life” is very different from the display of potent rhymes in “Hammer Dance.” In a recent interview, Joe Budden says he wants to continue building off a “larger” sound, adding that the album should be pushed back to develop it more.

"I'm hoping it gets pushed back to July," he said. "I feel like when it's your major label debut, more time, in this instance we're only talking about two and a half weeks, that is important to me. The more time the better. It's more time to prepare."

Budden described the sound of the album as “big” and “triumphant.” “My Life” was a small offering that fans can expect from the Slaughterhouse machine.

"If you listen to 'My Life,' that sounds grand,” he said. “The music, the feel, that is the theme to me... it's big. It's triumphant. It's introspective. It's really good and it flows well."

Their Shady Records debut is currently scheduled to drop on June 12.
