On October 1, Eric Bellinger will release his mixtape Choose Up Season. The nine tracks were inspired by the single life and include “Awkward” featuring The Game, on which he explores the uncomfortable post break-up feelings of his previous relationships.

“Eric is definitely one of the hottest young talents in R&B,” said Game. “We’ve done a few records already, including my current single ‘Or Nah.’ Don’t sleep on this guy.”

The L.A. singer-songwriter has also contributed to five songs off Chris Brown’s new album X.
