According to Fake Shore Drive, Twista is currently in Los Angeles working on The Dark Horse with frequent collaborator and fellow Chi-Town Hip Hop alum the Legendary Traxster. A picture of the two working in the studio on the project can be seen above. Twista also took to Twitter to confirm the news that he has begun work on ninth solo album.

3) Show & A.G. are back in the studio! Working together on their upcoming album “Mug Shot Music”. They already leaked one track “Suspended Animation” from the album to get the people warmed up.
