    Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music label will release its Cruel Summer compilation on September 4. Pusha T, who is signed with the label, previously said the disc would be out in August but it looks like fans will still get the summer disc just before the end of the season.

    The album has been so far heralded by single “Mercy,” which features West, Big Sean, Pusha T and 2 Chainz. The label has offered up new single, “New God Flow,” which features West and Pusha, today along with the album announcement. The track, produced by West, is now available digitally as well as on West’s website here.

    Cruel Summer, a compilation disc from the artists on the label, is a companion piece for a film of the same name, which debuted at Cannes earlier this year. The album has been described as “the musical companion and inspiration for West’s acclaimed 7-Screen cinematic experience.” More details on the album are set to emerge in the coming weeks.

    G.O.O.D. Music is currently on the cover of Complex’s August/September issue. In the piece 2 Chainz discusses his affiliation with the label, confirming that he is not actually signed as of now. The rapper said, “I’m not officially signed, paperwork-wise, to G.O.O.D. Music. But I have a great rapport with ‘Ye. He called me before Watch the Throne came out.” Pusha also reveals that West and Jay-Z hit “N*ggas in Paris” was intended for him, but he ended up passing on Hit-Boy’s beat. Kid Cudi confirmed, “He ain’t lying. I thought Pusha had that beat. I heard that three or four times, and it wasn’t for him.”
