Big Sean Taps Eminem, Migos, & Jhené Aiko for 'I Decided.'
The countdown is on for Big Sean’s I Decided. Before the album drops on Friday (Feb. 3), the Detroit spitter has revealed the highly-anticipated tracklisting.
The follow-up to 2015’s Dark Sky Paradise will include an appearance from fellow Motor City wordsmith Eminem, who pops up on “No Favors.” The only other rappers on the project are Migos, who appear on “Sacrifices.”
As far as singers, Jeremih (“Light”), The-Dream (“Sunday Morning Jetpack”), and Sean’s girlfriend and TWENTY88 partner Jhené Aiko (“Same Time Pt. 1”) show up. Finally, Flint Chozen Choir and Starrah round out the album’s guests on the closer, “Bigger Than Me.”

Sean revealed the partial guest list in recent weeks. For instance, the Detroit rapper said Em brought something unique to “No Favors.”
“Eminem was the only person I heard that could be on that song,” he told Beats 1. “It reminded me of why I am such an Eminem fan. It reminded me of why I fell in love with Eminem’s work. He’s unique. He’s special. When I first heard him, I feel like he was bringing new flows to the game. When he did this verse, it brought that feeling right back to me like, ‘Wow. This is a brand new energy.’ All the things he said were so necessary for the album…That’s what I was happy about. I’m glad that he addressed things, conceptually, that necessarily weren’t addressed. Super thoughtful.”
Sean Don has a busy week ahead. After making his debut on “Saturday Night Live” earlier this month, he will perform for the first time on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” tomorrow (Jan. 31) and return to “The Tonight Show” for a performance on Feb. 2.
