HOPSIN RETIRING FROM THE RAP GAME?

American Rapper Hopsin has recently been trolling the hell out of all his fans by saying he was going to be retiring from “The rap game” and moving to Australia. When Hopsin announced his retirement via social media, fans were literally devastated to hear the news. Hopsin then put a video out on Youtube with other Funk Volume artist Jarren Benton. The two artists basically created a spoof of a scene from the new film "dumb and dumber to" that was recently released starring Jeff Daniels and Jim Carrie as the main actors. In the scene Jarren walks up to Hopsin sitting in a wheelchair and confronts him about his recent announcement of his retirement, Hopsin replies back saying “Gotcha”. He then goes on to explain that he was fooling us the whole time and announces the release of the new album entitled “Pound Syndrome”. Although Hopsin has not released the album quite yet, he says that it is complete and should be released sometime in 2015.  Hopsin said later on, "I'm extremely happy to announce that I have already completed my 2015 album "Pound Syndrome" for you guys! I didn't wanna tell anyone I was working on it because I didn't want ANY pressure at all. The Funk Volume team is about to come strong as fuck! Shout out to @threekingsdr for the artwork! #PoundSyndrome#FV2015.”

        Check out the video Hopsin made with Jarren Benton above.

I’ll be keeping you up to date on any new information about the album and it’s release, until then let me know what you think about how Hopsin went about releasing the album. Was this a good way to announce the album release? What are you guys expecting the album to be like?
