Fans have missed G-Eazy as he took a break from music after going through one of the most devastating experiences of his life. Supporters shouldn't wait no more as the rapper just dropped a new song and will release a new album later this year.
Speaking in an interview with Billboard, the 33-year-old hip-hop artist admitted that he went through a lot of personal issues after his mother passed away.
In addition, he also felt "burn out" with his career as he and his team started touring and releasing music without a record label, adding, "That level of grind catches up to you."
Fortunately for the rapper, he found his way back into music and will not stop anytime soon, saying, "I just needed that step back. Once that spark hit it was like, 'Yeah, it's over. We found it. Now y'all are in trouble.'"

G-Eazy Mom's Death
G-Eazy was devastated when his mother, Suzanne Olmsted, passed away in November 2021. Months later she died, the rapper released a song inspired by his mom titled "Angel."
In a statement, the musician revealed that the track is about "trying to connect to somebody who you've lost in this physical realm." (via People Magazine)
While recording the song, the "Good Life" rapper said he felt the presence of his mom's energy dancing to the chorus of his new track.
Since his mother loved the arts when she was still alive, G-Eazy worked on starting a scholarship program in her honor together with The Dandelion Scholarship.
The organization will give $15,000 to one U.S. arts major every year.
