After recently signing a deal with Motown Records, beloved comedian and actor, Kevin Hart will soon be spreading his wings and busting some rhymes.

Hart is set to release an album this fall under his rap star alter-ego, Chocolate Droppa.

In an Instagram post earlier today, Hart shared a screenshot of a Billboard Music tweet announcing the deal.

He captioned the post, "If you're a rapper I suggest you run because I'm about to come for all of you suckas..." and essentially declared a war of the rhymes on every other rapper in the game.

Though Hart, 37, hasn't officially released any music before, he has shared videos online of himself rapping in the past.

The comedian posted a follow-up Instagram video to give us all a taste of the serious talent that's in store.

Watch out Drake, Future, Jay Z and 2 Chainz -- Chocolate Droppa is "about to smack all y'all on your behinds."
