In the latest of this year’s successes for T.I., Grand Hustle Entertainment is teaming up with Interscope Records to release the upcoming debut album from rapper Yung LA.

Discovered by rapper Young Dro in 2006 and signed to Grand Hustle in 2007, Yung LA has garnered a healthy buzz among fans with his single “Ain’t I.”

This project, titled Futuristic Leland, is said to reflect “what we do in Atlanta, but I’m putting the hip hop in it.”


Also says Yung LA … “Each song will be different, I may be swag rapping, but I’ma hit you with bars too,” said Yung LA, who admitted the album is “a new way of hip hop and a new way to express it.” “There’s nothing I can say that the next man hasn’t said, it’s just the way I say mine and the way I paint the same picture with different colors.”

Billboard albums and singles chart toppers, business alliances with Killer Mike and Big Boi, partnering with Interscope… this guy (T.I.) doesn’t stop. 50 Cent is not the only “success junkie”.

Yung LA’s Futuristic Leland , which will include appearances from T.I. and other Grand Hustle artists are slated to hit stores in early 2009.
