Rap artist Big Sean has released a new freestyle track named "Head To The Sky." The rapper shared this music unexpectedly as Black History Month comes to a close. Fans can currently listen to the freestyle exclusively through his Instagram and X social media accounts. The positive feedback suggests it may become available on streaming platforms soon. Several musicians, including Bryson Tiller and 2 Chainz, have already expressed support for the Detroit performer online.
The track runs for two minutes and fifteen seconds. During this time, Sean discusses life challenges faced by Black people both historically and today. He includes references to his family background and heritage throughout the lyrics. These personal elements make the freestyle consistent with themes from his recent album, Better Me Than You, which focused on maturity, introspection, and family relationships.
Sean explained the creation process behind "Head To The Sky" on social media. Producer Amaire Johnson modified a sample from the group Sounds of Blackness and sent it to Sean, who then recorded his verses. The rapper mentioned that the original sample always felt especially meaningful to him, describing it as inspiring, soulful, and representative of Black culture. He noted that despite working on darker musical projects recently, he appreciated how this beat provided a more uplifting feeling.
The anniversary of his "Dark Sky Paradise" album has been influencing his current studio sessions. Sean filmed the accompanying video clip during a brief period of free time in New York. The visual content was created with filmmakers credited as Kirch Films and Thomas Carmona. Fans interested in experiencing both the audio and visual components can access the complete freestyle through links provided on his social media profiles. The unexpected release has generated significant enthusiasm among his audience and fellow musicians.
