In the past few weeks, Ludacris has adopted the technique the Kanye once popularized with GOOD Fridays, putting free songs out weekly as parts of a series called IDGAF (I Don't Give A Fuck) Fridays. The quartet of songs he's released so far have been something of a return to form for Luda, who's sounding hungry and motivated alongside guests like Young Jeezy and French Montana.

Last week, we caught up with Luda and spoke about his role in the upcoming Fast & Furious 6, and luckily he had a second to discuss music and announce the release date of his anticipated new mixtape. Here's what he had to say:

"The mixtape is coming out the same day as the movie. May 24th. And then my album Ludaversal will be out sometime in the fall, around September. It's a lot of good music, and I feel great, man."
