Ludaversal is the upcoming eighth studio album by rapper Ludacris. Its release date is September 11, 2012 through Disturbing tha Peace and Def Jam Recordings. Sometime during August 2010, Ludacris tweeted from his official account that he was back in the studio with The Neptunes working on his upcoming eighth studio album, Ludaversal, his sequel album to Theater of the Mind. In July 2011, according to his Facebook, he recently went to Paris, France to work on Ludaversal. In an interview with Fuse, “Ludaversal” is said to be “totally stand alone, complete concept of its own.” Ludacris released the lead single off of his album, “Jingalin” in May 2012. Jingalin’ is a Da Internz produced track and is also the lead single off Ludacris’ album. The song samples LL Cool J‘s classic Jingling Baby. Ludacris films throws out a quick music video for his freestyle over Ca$h Out’s hit single, “Cashin’ Out.” Check out the official music video below after the jump…
Video Synopsis: The music video was shot and produced by Rico Malique and Ludacris. We see the Atlanta rap star jump behind the wheel of his slick Ferrari as he tears up the streets and spits about how much cash he has also how much he can stunt on you. Typical. By the end of the music video, Ludacris makes his way to a local strip club, of course with stacks of cash on hand. He sits near center stage and he makes it rain, as a few hot strippers work the pole to his single “Jingalin’.”
In the short video above, Fuse sat down with Ludacris at Bonnaroo, before his awesome set that included a full live band. Ludacris called “All Around the World” “extraordinary.” About Bieber, Ludacris says, “He’s progressing, man, he’s not a kid anymore! His records are starting to reflect that. He’s a hard worker, he’s definitely into the culture. When I heard the record, I instantly loved it. I’m waiting to get the confirmations on doing the video, but I’m sure there’s a video in the plans.” It is also believed that Kanye West, Ne-Yo, Young Jeezy, Justin Bieber and Nelly will also make a contribution to the effort on his upcoming album.
