Since the release of his solo-debut, My Name Is My Name, in 2013 we didnt hear too much from Pusha T. We expected the follow-up project, King Push, in 2014 but we never even gotten an expected release date. So 2014 closed out Pusha T-less, no album, mixtape, very few interviews, not even a single. Then 2015 rolled around and it seemed as if it would be a repeat of the prior year. HOWEVER, with only two months left in the calendar year of 2015, Kanye West appointed Pusha T as the new President of G.O.O.D. Music and that really got the ball rolling. Since being named the new President of G.O.O.D. Music, Pusha has gone on to release a new Addidas King Push EQT shoe, a prelude album (King Push – Darkest Before Dawn) to hold fans over until the release of King Push (expected next year), and a Jay-Z funded film to accompany Darkest Before Dawn. So, it's safe to say that after a quiet year Pusha T is definitely flooding the streets with material leading up to his sophmore release King Push.
What better way to close-out a strong ending of a year than with a short film to accompany your album? Darkest Before Dawn is a short film directed by Kid Art that captures the downfall of three local drug dealers who try to make their way back to the top of the drug dealing game. The films stars Pusha T, Rotimi (hit-series Power), Natalya Rudakova (Transporter 3), George Katt, & Joe Gioco (Goodfellas). Watch the film below.
