Earl Sweatshirt, MIKE And Surf Gang have teamed up for a collaborative single, Leadbelly.
The hazy, lo-fi hip hop track serves as the latest preview of the Los Angeles and New York rappers' recently announced collaborative double-sided LP, 'POMPEII // UTILITY', due out on April 3 via 10k/Tan Cressida Records.
Announced earlier this month and produced entirely by New York collective Surf Gang (Harrison, evilgiane, Elipropperr and Flea Diamonds), the project features MIKE on the first half of the album (POMPEII) and Earl Sweatshirt on the second (UTILITY). It'll also include the previously shared lead double single, the MIKE-featuring Minty, and the Earl-featuring Earth.
The long-time collaborators and friends will also tour together this summer with their Home On The Range Tour, which kicks off with a performance in Mexico City and new shows across Australia and New Zealand in April and May, followed by previously scheduled US, European and UK dates between June and September.
The US run features support from Harrison of Surf Gang, as do their shows in Glasgow, Dublin, Nottingham, London, Bristol, Brighton, Paris and Tilburg. The Poland OFF Festival date will be a solo performance from Earl Sweatshirt, while MIKE with the Band of the Century will appear at We Out Here in Salisbury, the Paris date at Bourse De Commerce, and All Points East in London supporting Tyler, The Creator.
Tickets for their new Australian and New Zealand shows go on general sale at 9am local time on Friday (March 27).
Earl Sweatshirt's latest album was last year's 'Live Laugh Love', while MIKE collaborated with producer Tony Seltzer for 'Pinball II', also released last year.
