In just a few years, Logic’s fanbase had grown immensely and he was climbing the hip-hop success ladder with four well-received mixtapes. In April of 2013, Logic announced that he signed with Def Jam Recordings and with help of No I.D., a producer of Def Jam, Logic released his first studio album, Under Pressure, in 2014. His first studio album was a great success selling over 75,000 copies on the very first week as well as being #2 on the Billboard Top Hip-Hop/R&B Chart. Just after a couple of months following his first album, Logic had already announced that he would be releasing his second album in the fall of 2015. This album was described as a “motion picture sci-fi epic”, with it taking place in the future as the main characters are traveling to a new planet while playing Logic’s new album.
In November of 2015, Logic released the second album, The Incredible True Story, which debuted at the #1 spot on the Billboard Top Hip-Hop/R&B Chart as well as debuting at #3 on the Billboard 200. In the following year, Logic released, Bobby Tarantino, which was his newest mixtape since his Young Sinatra trilogy in 2013. In 2017, Logic announced his third studio album, Everybody. Logic talked about how he originally titled the album AfricAryaN, due to “being black and white, and seeing life from two sides.” In this album, he speaks about “everybody’s struggles,” such as issues and topics including depression, suicide, mental health, violence, racism, drug abuse, and religion. The album debuted at the #1 spot on the US Billboard 200 as well as selling over 200,000 copies. From the album, the single “1-80” went triple platinum. This single is titled after the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline phone number. Logic describes the song as someone calling the hotline and that they want to commit suicide. Not only this single, but each song from this album speaks about issues that plague society. In a recent interview, when asked about any upcoming projects, Logic said that his next album, which will be his fourth, will be his final one.
