Earlier this year Woodie Smalls invited an American team of an engineer and producers to Nice Recordings Studio in Antwerp, Belgium.
One of those producers was multi-platinum and Grammy winning producer Mike Hector (@kendricklamar, @wizkhalifa, @denzelcurryph, @24hrs, @idk, @killy, @wale, @unotheactivist, @nessly). The engineer is named Clinton “Headache” Walker III – who worked on Kanye’s newest project and Nipsey Hussle’s latest track ‘Racks in the Middle’.

Add a GOOSE piano sample to this and you get Woodie Smalls’ first official radio single this year: ‘Pending’.

ABOUT THE SINGLE
There is more pressure and expectations than ever before on young people. To look good, be successful, change the world all by yourself, ... While most people have the feeling they haven’t figured anything out yet. Woodie’s message to his fans: you are not alone in this, it is not the end it is just the start. You will be fine.

WOODIE EXPLAINS
“I’m not Doctor Phill who’s going to take away all your problems.
Neither is the song about me and my issues (in the past & now) or very big world issues.
Instead it’s about: coming together and forget about everything for a second, and get turned.
About dealing with your own issue, which feels like the end of the world to you. However small it might seem to the outside world.
It’s about the fact that I understand what young people today (like my fans) are going through. Giving those people a voice and a place to belong.”
