Phife Dawg's Final Solo Album To Be Released Next Year

(Radio.com) Phife Dawg was recording a follow up to his 2000 debut solo album, Ventilaton: Da LP before he passed away in March after complications with diabetes and that project will be released in 2017.

Phife's widow Desha Head Taylor spoke at a press conference over the weekend before the ceremony co-naming a Queens street after her late husband. During that event, she shared that he had been hard at work on his solo album before he passed away, and how his team was working equally hard to prepare it for the public.

"His solo album will be out probably sometime during the first quarter of 2017," she said. "We're working on it now. He completed his entire solo album before he transitioned, so we're excited about releasing that." (via OkayPlayer). Read more here.
