2chainz2 Chainz plans to drop his fan-oriented EP Freebase on May 5th. The project includes five new tracks and marks a return to his hardcore, street-flavored rap.

It has been a minute since the release of my album B.O.A.T.S. II: Me Time and I wanted to give something special to my fans while I record my follow-up album,” said 2 Chainz. “This is a taste of what is to come, and is most importantly, for them.

Last month, he debuted the Young Chop-produced “A-Rod” featuring French Montana, which is expected to be included on the EP.

In keeping with the fan-oriented theme, he had his social media followers submit artwork for the Freebase cover via Instagram. He narrowed down the 10,000 applicants to four before making his final decision.

The winning cover features a rare photo of Richard Pryor reclining on a bed, wearing two chain necklaces. In 1980, the stand-up comedian set himself on fire after freebasing cocaine.
