DAME D.O.L.L.A Did Not Reference The Olympics In Forthcoming Project

On Friday morning, Damian Lillard dropped his latest single, ‘The Juice,’ featuring Jane Handcock. Lillard was on the schedule as one of the Team USA players, who was speaking after practice. Team USA Basketball, both men’s and women’s, will be playing in the Gold Medal games this weekend.
During the interview session, Lillard was asked if there were any Olympic lyrics on his new project.
“It was about done before I came here. It was in its finishing stages. So, I didn’t reference anything, but there might be something coming from this, though. I can definitely tell you that, and it’s definitely something to look out for,” says Lillard.
Last month, I asked if Lillard had created music during the Olympics.
“I did a lot of recording before this past season & towards the end of its for this project coming soon. I have just been managing it, and make sure it gets mixed & mastered, the features & cover art. I did record some new stuff in Vegas,” said Lillard.
Lillard’s fourth album is set to be released on August 20th via his Front Page label, and you pre-order the project on Apple Music now.
Team USA Men’s Basketball will take on France in the Gold Medal game.
