Vince Staples has shared details of his first album in three years.
The self-titled follow-up to 2018's 'FM!' will arrive on July 9 via Blacksmith Recordings/Motown Records and feature the new single Law Of Averages among its 10 tracks.
The chilled, minimal cut rolls out over a muted beat and comes with a cinematic video shot in Staples' area of Long Beach, California, with direction by Kid. Studio. Talking about the Kenny Beats-produced record, the rapper said:
"It really gives much more information about me that wasn't out there before. That’s why I went with that title. I feel like I've been trying to tell the same story. As you go on in life, your point of view changes. This is another take on myself that I might not have had before."
"I'm a mind more than I am an entertainer to a lot of people," he added. "I appreciate that my fanbase is willing to go on this ride with me. I’m ready to diversify what we’re doing and see how we affect the world."
