Nick Grant Unveils I Took It Personal: Shares Album Cover and Release Date
If “Nothing’s Free” is the hard truth and “Pass It Out” the communal prescription, June 13 promises an album that refuses to separate the personal from the professional.
Nick Grant is positioning I Took It Personal as a no-frills, contract-reading manifesto that lands June 13, 2025, and is already foreshadowed by the reflective single “Nothing’s Free” and the bassy-laced teaser “Pass It Out,” slated for May 16th. Together, the two records sketch a full-length concerned with ownership, lyrical supremacy, and Southern perseverance, themes Grant has been drip-feeding across Twitter (now X), Instagram reels, and a steady trickle of grainy studio clips that double as cautionary tales for emerging rappers.
Well before that announcement, he had quietly uploaded “Nothing’s Free” to SoundCloud in mid-March, allowing the cut to marinate in fan circles before its official DSP release on April 4th, where Apple Music lists it as a four-minute single under his Infinity & Records imprint. If the first single is the hard truth and “Pass It Out” the communal prescription, June 13 promises an album that refuses to separate the personal from the professional, reminding fans, and maybe a few gatekeepers, that lyricism can still set the release calendar, not just react to it.
