Coming off the buzz of her Bootleg release, Grae joined the Okayplayer Tour last winter, where the emcee hooked up with The Roots and was asked to join their spring tour, in addition to recording a track for The Roots' recently release The Tipping Point.

Grae will also be featured on Talib Kewli's upcoming Beautiful Struggle LP, "The Badass" soundtrack, as well as a collaborate with Masta Ace and Babygrande's own Sharkey with his song "Summer in the City."

The first single from the new album is set to be a double A side consisting of "Goin' Crazy" and "U Don't Want It," produced by Midi Mafia.

The album wil also feature production from 9th Wonder.

This Week is slated to hit store shelves on September 2.
