"Ludacris aims to return to music in 2024. The 46-year-old rapper/actor discussed why he took an eight-year-long break from music and focused on his acting career in a November 20 interview with BET.

“It was just taking a step back and getting hungry again, living some life,” he said. “’Cause when you put out music, in order for it to be organic and real, you gotta talk about what goes on in your life. So, if I had like nine consistent albums, sometimes you gotta take a step back and live some life so that you have a lot more to talk about and that’s what I was doing.”

Ludacris has not released an album since 2015’s Ludaversal. He was unsure if his next project would be an album, but he vowed to deliver new music in 2024.

“Some music projects will be coming out next year,” he said. “I don’t wanna fake, I don’t wanna stutter-step. I don’t wanna be like [André] 3000 and say, ‘I got an album coming out.’ I don’t know. It’s definitely some music coming next year, but I don’t know if it’s like an EP or an LP. We’re going to figure it out.”

Ludacris’ latest movie Dashing Through the Snow dropped on November 17. The holiday film is available to stream on Disney Plus.

Jokey joke Luda was finished in 2006. That character was finished and those fans grew up. Can he pivot to another lane/subject matter and still tap back into half them kids he raised that's grown now. It was a lot of 'em

Did u feel tjer about about Andre 3K?

Wh0ever’s cutting budgets needs to be fired , they’ve fu#ked up multiple artists career by stalling them out on new releases!

Luda top 4 out atl ALL time to me

He should of dropped "Back For The Last Time" like he planned. He even grew his hair back.

didnt't listen to it. is it worth it?

“I fill her up...Balloon"

That line really ki1led him lol.

Luda is growing his hair back nowadays...


Maybe he'll go back to the cartoonish raps that we loved him for.

I think him and Redman should do a song together.

Other than that, Luda should stick to acting considering that rap has changed since then.

Did anyone even listen to Ludaversal???

Rappers need to learn when to leave their legacy alone
