Earl Sweatshirt has shared details of a new project called 'Sick!'.
The 10-song album is due to arrive on January 14 via Tan Cressida and Warner Records. As a preview, the Los Angeles rapper has dropped a slow-burning collaboration with hip hop duo Armand Hammer, Tabula Rasa, which rolls out over Sweatshirt's laid-back flow. He said:
"'Sick' is my humble offering of 10 songs recorded in the wake of the worldwide coronavirus pandemic and its subsequent lockdowns. Before the virus, I had been working on an album I named after a book I used to read with my mother (The People Could Fly). Once the lockdowns hit, people couldn’t fly anymore. A wise man said art imitates life. People were sick. The People were angry and isolated and restless. I leaned into the chaos cause it was apparent that it wasn’t going anywhere. These songs are what happened when I would come up for air. Peace and love to Zelooperz the enigma, the Armand Hammer, and my good friends Alchemist and Black Noi$e. Peace and love to u."
It follows Sweatshirt's recent Black Noi$e-produced single 2010, his first solo material in three years. His last project was 2019's 'Feet Of Clay'.
