Earl Sweatshirt has broken his musical silence in a big way. The Odd Future member announced last week that his depressingly titled album is 'I Don't Like S**t, I Don't Go Outside.' The dark and lyrically sophisticated album is an intimate view inside the mind and personality of Sweatshirt over the past two years, who according to the 'Doris' rapper has not been outside in quite some time, explaining, "I haven been outside in a minute / I been living what I wrote." The new album, which you can stream on Spotify, is largely devoid of features, but it does feature the talents of Vince Staples, Wiki, Na'kel and Da$h. -

Earl Sweatshirt Interviews Mike Tyson, and It's Fantastic
Bi-annual "Humanity" magazine went above and beyond with its latest interview selection. As it noted in the introduction, Mike Tyson has been interviewed, profiled and written about from every angle, so to do another piece with him via the publication probably would not yield anything interesting. Looking to step outside the box, it asked Odd Future member Thebe Neruda Kgositsile, better known as Earl Sweatshirt — if he would interview Mike Tyson. Both parties agreed to do the interview, and it may be the best thing you read all day, via Complex. Tyson dishes some blunt advice on being young and dumb to the 20-year-old Sweatshirt: Mike: I mean, you're pretty much an idiot at 20. Earl: Right, that's what I feel like. I got to 20, and I — Mike: You're not an idiot, but you are. You don't really think you're an idiot, but you are. Earl: Right. Mike: But you don't think it. Like you're in agreement, but you're an idiot. -

With holiday-themed LPs, sweaters and everything in between dropping out of the sky from your favorite musicians, it was time for Red Bull Music to amass their massive pool of talent for a special, end-of-the-year/holiday giveaway. Red Bull Music has launched a new campaign 20Before15, where it will give away songs from 20 of the wide range of artists it has supported and help grow over the past few years. There is a small caveat to the giveaway: There will only be 1,000 versions of each song given away, so you have to act quickly to get your copy. According to the press release, artists to be included in the giveaway spree include eclectic producer/DJ TOKiMONSTA, Odd Future member Earl Sweatshirt, psychedelic tropical bass group Dengue Dengue Dengue and Lebanese blue rock duo The Wanton Bishops. TOKiMONSTA kicked off the spree yesterday with her new tune "Pinching" alongside Snoop Dogg-approved Polish singer Iza Lach, known professionally as Iza.

The song for today has not been announced yet, so stay tuned to the Red Bull 20Before15 page for your chance to get a quality, free, new track from an up-and-coming act. -

Earl Sweatshirt Shares Weird New Song "45" [LISTEN]
Odd Future member Earl Sweatshirt has shared a new track titled “45,” which you can check out below. The Alchemist-produced track is typical Earl, rhyming over a dark, grimy beat without any sort of hook or refrain. The track runs at an incredibly short 1:16, leading Consequence of Sound to speculate that this is just the first half of the actual song, though a more experimentally-minded rapper like Earl could easily be recording an entire album of brief songs like this, similar to Madvillainy. -
