Even though the winter is right around the corner, Fabolous still has summer on the mind. To promote tonight's Tidal X: 1020 Festival, Fab held a Twitter Q+A via the Tidal account and announced that he has two new projects on the way. Along with a new mixtape called Summertime Shootout, the Brooklyn MC will also drop a new project on Christmas Day. The Xmas drop marks the fourth time in his esteemed career that Fabolous will release a project on the holiday. In 2011, he released There Is No Competition 3: Death Comes in 3's, he followed that up with The S.O.U.L. Tape 3 in 2013 and last year, he released The Young OG Project. The two projects will give Fab three for the year as he dropped Friday Night Freestyles in May.
