Mase Speaks On Upcoming Album- Now We Even

Mase has been on and off the hip hop scene since he retired in 1999. He came back in 2004 still under Diddy, then he was with  50 Cent around 2005, then he disappeared again, and then came back around 2009, and disappeared again. But the last 2 years, it seems like he is really here to stay now. My problem with Mase is that he can't deliver at his full potential unless he removes the barrier of being called a gospel rapper. He needs to drop the 'pastor mase' title, and just rap about life. He can still preach without being to preachy...you get what I mean? He can deliver a positive message without coming off as someone that is 'holier than thou.' I am a Mase fan, and would love to here the old Mase flow, but with some positive message.

Check out what he has to say about his upcoming album (Now We Even) with a series of tweets-

“No abbreviations use #NOWWEEVEN that’s the only conversation I’m having. y€$ #NOWWEEVEN is the album title… Lets make it happen!!! Right now I’m listening to all my early freestyles & songs… This got to be something special. A couple free shows & visits #NOWWEEVEN. I’m listening also to Life after Death, All Eyes On Me and Reasonable Doubt… Just so u know what I’m thinking. #NOWWEEVEN.

@iamdiddy should be on MY album unless he gets saved and leave music… LM_ _ O #NOWWEEVEN. TO ME @Mr_Camron IS HOMETEAM. SO “NO” we don’t have any beefs.
