As his character Jamal Lyon gets closer to releasing his album, Jussie's album has come to a halt in real life. Sway asked him about the status of it on Sunday's magenta carpet, and Jussie says he's just learning to be patient. He did reveal one song that will DEF show up on his new project though.
There's more good news for the Alien: Covenant star. He's set to direct an episode of "Empire" in the upcoming fourth season. Woot! Since the powers that be loved his directorial job on his own "F.U.W." vid, they tapped him to flex his skills on the hit Fox show.
Congrats Jussie!
