Earl Sweatshirt Announce New Album Live Laugh Love

Earl Sweatshirt is ready to reveal his next studio album. Entitled Live Laugh Love, it arrives this Friday, August 22nd.

The rapper officially announced the new release with a bizarre Instagram post that features a photo of Chris Brown, a LeBron James meme, a shot of Sweatshirt wearing wire-rimmed glasses, and a whole host of odd images. See the post here.

Sweatshirt first unveiled the new project with a wild listening party held in Los Angeles over the weekend (August 15th). According to a Complex review on Instagram, the event featured a DJ who played the new album, followed by someone wearing a Supreme hat–clearly not Earl Sweatshirt–coming out to perform Earl Sweatshirt songs. There were album-themed cocktails available (Live Whiskey, Laugh Vodka, and Love Tequila), t-shirts for sale that appeared to reveal the tracklist, and a free zine handed out that included contributions from the likes of Donald Glover, Vince Staples, Dave Chappelle, The Alchemist and others. Actor/comedian Zack Fox was there filming the proceedings, but Sweatshirt was nowhere to be seen. See the Complex post below.

Live Laugh Love will be Sweatshirt’s first full-length effort since the 2023 collaboration with The Alchemist, Voir Dire.

Sweatshirt currently only has a pair of upcoming tour dates: an appearance at the Hopscotch Music Festival 2025 in Raleigh, North Carolina, on September 4th, and a Halloween show (October 31st) at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO. Get tickets here.
