In 2018,
Young Dolph remained steadfastly independent, turning down a major-label offer worth $22 million. Determined to stick with his own Paper Route Empire, his growing success helped prove that a major record deal was entirely unnecessary.
Role Model is a testament to his perseverance; the charismatic rapper hopes to encourage his audience to work hard and become even better than their role models. The album features guest appearances from
Snoop Dogg ("I Think I Can Fly"),
Offset ("Break the Bank"), and
Kash Doll ("Whole World"), and reached number 15 on the Billboard 200,
Dolph's highest ranking on the chart to date. ~ Paul Simpson
