Logic hosted his first
Twitch livestream late Thursday night. The rapper became the first musician to sign an exclusive streaming deal with the platform earlier this week. His pre-album live stream amassed 105k live viewers and was a #1 trend on

Logic has released his final album (according to his socials) album,
No Pressure. The LP was executive-produced by
No I.D.; longtime Logic collaborator/producer
6IX was involved in the album's production.
Logic also announced in a tweet that he'll be retiring from music after releasing this project. Contrary to that notion, it was revealed on Monday that the rapper signed an exclusive streaming (video game) deal with
Twitch, rumored to be worth seven figures. He's already set up streaming sessions to promote and play part of the new album ahead of its release this week.
No Pressure follows 2019's
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, which debuted at #1 on the
HITS Top 50. In 2019, Logic also released the novel,
Supermarket, which made him the first hip-hop MC to author a #1 fiction novel on the
New York TImes Bestseller fiction list.
