Soulja Boy has announced his upcoming fourth album Promise, releasing at the top of the year in 2012.

During an interview with The BoomBox, the 21-year-old revealed the project, which will serve as the follow-up to his poorly received 2010 album The DeAndre Way. "Right now I'm working on my new album," he said. "It's called Promise — my fourth album to release from Interscope Records. It'll be in stores top of 2012. I want everybody to support."

Though Spulja is often criticized for being too simplistic, he assures that the new album will convey growth. "[The album is] just really showing the growth and maturity of Soulja Boy," he continued. "It's going to be dope. It's going to be lot of great records on it, a lot of dope features, a lot of great production. I want all my fans to check it out."
