Pusha T’s ‘Darkest Before Dawn’ Tracklist Is Out

Pusha T is going all in on his roll out for Darkest Before Dawn, releasing the tracklist to his sophomore solo effort as well as a 20-minute documentary exclusively on Tidal. The album is set to drop a week from today (Dec. 18) and with the iTunes preorder comes new single, "Crutches, Crosses, Caskets."

In addition to the tracklist (seen below) Pusha T also linked up with the folks at Genius to annotate "M.F.T.R." Most notably, he explains his line about Tyga "lookin like a genius."

"I felt he was looking like a genius simply because it takes a lot for you to leave a situation at Cash Money— a label of prominence, with a large history of success," Push explains. "A lot of artists would have stayed in that situation and carried on with the illusion and with people just assuming that they were doing well because they were amongst that crew.

"To me, Tyga stepped out there and said, 'I ain’t have a royalty check in God knows when.' He wasn’t looking to be more famous than rich, and he was open to the world about it."

Pusha has long had tension with Cash Money, including a 2012 on-wax back and forth with Lil Wayne. He had also name dropped Baby on the previous Darkest Before Dawn single, "Untouchable."
