so many rapper's careers started, peaked and ended in the time it took for earl to drop a single

Crazy how nontoxic the earl fan base is in general. Love you guys. Love you earl have a good day fam

Half of his fan base finished puberty by the time he dropped this

This beat sounds exactly like the album cover

I can't believe it was 5 year since the release of Doris and what's more surprising is that master piece was made when he was only 19.

this song is oddly comfortable

How is this beat all over the place but exactly in the right place at the same time. It’s so perfect somehow

Hits different when you climbing back up from rock bottom

It’s was a long three years but we made it boys

I love MF DOOM and his influence on Earl's style but I'm glad Earl is being experimental and veering further into his own sonic space. I like this already, and I like that it'll definitely grow on me with more listens

I spent most of my life depressed, Only thing on my mind was death, Didn’t know if my time was next.

idk if anyone will read this but I gotta write it out I discovered Earl in junior high school back when he was with Odd Future and Tyler and them boys, and I loved him the most out of all the rappers in that group. His style, his flow, his production was just so different. Life was simpler back then and so was Earl's music. In High School, he released "I don't like shit, I don't go outside" which perfectly encapsulated the low points of my life at that point, struggling to find new friends, struggling to keep up with my academics. In a weird way, it sort of helped me get by, as depressing as the music was. It felt like there was somebody that truly understood all the problems I was dealing with, and so for a while that album was all I listened to. Then he went silent for a while. I knew he was dealing with some serious shit from the content of the album as well as rumors, and so for a while I moved on and forgot about Earl. Just before graduating High School, I discovered the secret singles Earl had dropped, Wind in my sails, Quest/Power, and it flat out inspired me. Earl was in my life again. And as I started to grow and change, physically and mentally, and realize that the world is much more complex than what I previously thought it was, Earl Sweatshirt was making music again. Nowhere2go is a song so overproduced, so layered, and so sonically ornamental, yet at the same time, Earl says so few but means so much. "I gotta watch my step, I spent most of my life depressed, didn't know when my time was next, I redefined myself, first had to find it". These bars are so simple but complex at the same time. Then he released the album, and I listened to it five times in one day. It's nothing like he's ever made before, it's jumbled concise message about loss and change still gives my life direction today. I still listen to his old music, but as my life changes more and more and as I grow as a person I find myself coming back to this album. Thank y'all and bless up.

Earl that clutch deadbeat dad that come every holiday

Earl literally just gave us a type of music we didn't know we needed

Lyricism: 9/10 Beat: 10,000/10 Atmosphere: 8/10 Delivery: 10/10

beat sounds like something off adult swim

EXPERIMENTAL EARL WE HERE

Earl releasing music that doesn't make it seem that he's constantly thinking about death anymore. Tears in my eyes.

1:48 gives me goosebumps everytime i hear it. Right when you think hes finally happy he has this broken kinda hum undernesth the instrumental. like hes hiding it

this beat is beautiful, this grew on me like no other song, I love this

This song makes me feel warm. Idk. I think it's because I've missed Earl so much. If you see this comment Thebe, thank you for everything. You are an amazing musician

*THE DROUGHT IS OVER. THIS IS EARLY SEASON. ALBUM OF THE MILLENNIUM INCOMING*

The beat sound like someone whos on the edge of crying, but holding it back as hard as possible. Love it.

this hits so deep. makes me feel hopeful about life whenever im in a lonely mindset

He sounds so hopeful like he’s trying to get out of a hole.

Bruh I don’t care if it good or not it’s been 3 yrs im busting this month from this album

Shoutout to everybody same age as earl and been listening since early highschool

I found a new way to cope. There ain't no slave in my soul, but I keep them memories close by. Even when I hit a low, I still give thanks to the most high.

I don't need to go outside no more, Earl is back

I hope the whole album is experimental like this. This beat is unearthly!

Even when I hit a low, I still give thanks to the most high!

“I had to find myself” Really giving me hope. He the darkest place I’ve ever been, only 17 and feel 40. I’m scared, lost, and feel alone. Hope I get through it

Once you start playing this on repeat it gets addicting.

The chances that this dropped as I’m daytripping off a tab is remarkable. It’s like this day was chosen for me. I love all my earlysweater fans

Bothers me that whenever a popular artist makes something that sounds just the slightest bit experimental, people can't accept it's weirdness. Imagine the joy the producer felt when they made something that's truly unique and doesn't sound like any other type of existing music. As an experimental musician myself, this is the best feeling. If you can only go as far as saying that this sounds like "Aphex Twin" or the other 2 *popular* experimental artists, i don't think you've experienced how strangely euphoric "odd" sound can be.

I'm addicted to this song, everytime I listen to it, it gets better

NEED THE REST OF THE TRACK FROM VINCES ALBUM

Not the music we deserve, but the one we need

almost 3 years old... still remember the day I heard this song for the first time. Thanks earl, I probably wouldn't make it so far without your music

This shit changed my life. I didn't get it even a little bit at first but it forever expanded my taste in music.

Bro really dropped this on my birthday...

Mixing that new flow with a beat as all over the place with this... I think this is just the beginning folks. Earl will meet all expectations

This shit speaks to my soul I don’t know how he does it.

“I be with Mike and Med, nowadays I be with sage and with sixpress, ya dig” MIKE, Medhane, and Sixpress from Slums are who really influenced this song. It’s also produced by press too, check them out

"I found a new way to cope, It ain't no slave in my soul, But I keep the memories close by, Even when I hit a low, I still give thanks to the most high", As somebody with depression, this track is almost therapeutic. Thanks Earl for finally officially releasing this!

Man when you are depressed listening to this it’s like there is hope at the end

This song hits harder than any song I’ve heard. It’s beyond tears, it’s pain...

Man this beat and song all is so strong

listen to it a few times in headphones if you dont like it. i didnt at first. at all. then i listened again and heard all the pain in his voice. his dad just passed not too long ago. this song is mature. dark, but not overtly. think about how different this sounds from all the other rap that is currently popular. everyone from OF went in their own direction. i personally love this track now and cant wait to hear the new record. yeah.

Ugh... All I can say is... I love you earl. Glad you're back

It's beautiful to see Thebe progress as an artist. I remember being in 8th grade listening to IDLSIDGO like clockwork. I feel like Earl's albums could serve as place markers in my life. "Tryna refine this shit, I redefined myself"

I was 18 when i first heard this song and at the time i was working a job i hated and going through some rough times. Im about to 24 and man I could cry from the amount of growth that has happened in my life. If you're young remember to keep your head up and don't let yourself sink too deep into the mud you'll get out some day.

Seems like Earl's biggest influence went from MF DOOM to Viper, still slaps

This is it chief

This song brings me to the brink of tears every damn time I listen to it and I’ve heard it around 100 times .

Craziest beat I’ve ever heard honestly.

I loved Solace, so while I love earl and I hate he is upset and he had a rough year, I love this sound. Ashame this won’t be a hit with the public but the critics are gonna love this

The sampling is wild on this gem

I love his flow on this ... my god

Ade Hakim did his thing on this beat, it sounds so perfect, but all over the place at the same time. Love it

The juxtaposition of his subject matter of peace against the chaotic, noisy beat makes us question whether his peaceful mindstate is real or a facade. What a genius.

Earl looks like janitor in the picture but he sounds like a prophet from the planet Neptune 🙏🏼

I feel earl and it pisses me off people won’t ever be able to feel me

this just makes sense to me. its not "experimental" its from the heart

Is it only me or did it grow on anyone else

Bruh first listen I was like “ehh it’s ok” Now It’s so addicting bruh lmfaooo

Maaan my father was passing away and this was my mantra....R.I.P. Rodney

Even when I hit a low I still give thanks 2 the Most High🙏🏽💯

spent most of my life depressed only thing on my mind was death

production is insane

Dude I've been bumping this track nonstop for days... I need more music that sounds like this.

It's amazing how even though he keeps it simple on this song he makes every word count

Earl annihilates everything he touches

Sounds like an interlude to his album. The build up is real! I FEEEEEEEL IT COMINGGGGGGG *Chills*

I found a new way to cope

this shit is poetry

I love the expiremental beat. It's interesting to hear the beat and how it goes all over the place. it also makes it nice to listen to while high...

LIFE IS GOOD BOYS LIFE IS REALLY GOOD HOPE EVERYONE STAYIN BLESSED N EATING GOOD MUCH LOVE

I found a new way to cope, it ain’t no slave in my soul 💯

this beat is INSANE

Did this man just say he gives praise to the most high? Lol a we got a different Earl here

One of the most gifted ears in the game. Flow. Beat. Lyrics.. Synced into a signature sound..

never been lost I remember Nowhere2go New shit consumed quick it perishable embed it with gold it shall never get old.

This song is beautiful in the most depressing way.

*CANT WAIT FOR THE ALBUM AFTER THIS WE LIVE PEOPLE*

very experimental I like it alot 🔥🔥🔥

This sounds like paper shredders working all at once while a monk is meditating

pure magic, this song sounds like deep crying. Thank you Thebe for giving me a new true sound.

Thanks for blessing my morning Earl. How are you feeling today?

😤😤😤 i fw it, can’t wait until we recieve a full length project to experience his growth

Earl, you genius, people are not ready for this

Everyone will always be looking forward to that new Earl album.

I’m currently in Virginia for my Military Annual Training and bro I’ve been hella stressed for two weeks and hearing that my favorite rapper is releasing a new album made my entire week Bro I can’t wait for you to drop this 👍🏽

To any one who isn’t hot about this track. Listen to it again with some headphones! 10/10 Sweatshirt!

I played this over 80 times in the last 2 days *Edit: this instrumental go hard asf. I'm still here*

When I first heard this, I thought it was wack. Now it's one of the best tracks on the album for me

Love from South Africa😢😙 waiting for the project, welcome back Thebe😢

Beat sounds like something Flying Lotus would make. I'm digging it👌

This song grew on me so much to the point where I'd say that it's one of my favorite songs of all time

i continue to listen to this song, and it gets better everytime. Masterpiece
