Over the summer, the seasoned songwriter delivered the second single "No Apologies" with Ye followed by his surprise collaboration with YNW Melly. The incarcerated Florida rapper, who's currently in jail awaiting his murder retrial, recorded his verse for "Overdose" shortly before he was arrested in February 2019. Cons recruited the rapper's younger brother YNW BSlime to star in the music video and still maintains his relationship with Melly's family to this day.

After ghostwriting for Yeezy and several other artists, Consequence shifted his focus to an up-and-comer with plenty of potential: his son Caiden Mills. Caiden The Crownholder has been rapping pretty much since he could speak. Cons helped launch his son's career when he was 4 years old by featuring the toddler on his single "That Dude" from his 2016 EP A Good Comeback Story. From there, Caiden evolved into a popular MC who's still building his following while under his dad's wing. He released several solo singles in recent years including "The Money Got Me Singing" and "Phase 2." Nearly a decade after his debut, Caiden finally earned his first formal placement on his father's new album on their special track, "The Chase Pt. 3."

Consequence's new batch of hits is just the beginning of what he's got in store for the future. During our conversation, he breaks down the making of several songs from the project like his collaboration with his son, "Relationship Advice" with Chris Rock and Alex Isley plus others. He also teases new music from the deluxe version — including a fresh collaboration with Chuck D of Public Enemy — as well as a collaborative project with Caiden and more. Later on, he touches on A Tribe Called Quest's induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and what's next for him.
