Memphis rap star Young Dolph is the fucking best. He keeps making diss songs, and people keep trying to shoot him, and he keeps surviving and then immediately releasing new albums full of diss songs. A few weeks ago, Dolph was shot multiple times at outside a Los Angeles hotel. This was the second attempt on his life this year; in February, he was shot at 100 times in Charlotte, but a bulletproof truck saved his life. And even though he got hit this time, Dolph seems to be OK, and he's got a new album coming out next week. Dolph announced the new LP Thinking Out Loud while leaving the hospital yesterday. According to The FADER, it's set to feature appearances from Gucci Mane, 2 Chainz, D.R.A.M., and Ty Dolla $ign. That'll be Dolph's third album of this calendar year, following January's Gelato and April's provacatively titled Bulletproof. Here's the video of Dolph, getting up out of a wheelchair with his arm in a sling, letting us know: Thinking Out Loud is out 10/20.
