Earl Sweatshirt Titanic

This is a busy season for Earl Sweatshirt who is jumping right into 2022 with a new album and a new tour. It was just about a month ago when news surfaced that Earl would be hitting the road with Action Bronson, The Alchemist, and Boldy James, and that tour is set to launch this month. The group of artists is slated for 15 dates that run until March, and to help kick off the live shows, Earl Sweatshirt is delivering a new album next week.

Sick! Is said to be “influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic and its subsequent lockdowns” and just ahead of its release, Earl teases his fans with a new single: “Titanic.” The track follows Sweatshirt’s November release, “2010,” and his December offering, “Tabula Rasa.”

“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’),” the rapper said in a statement. “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.”

Lyrics

[Verse: Earl Sweatshirt & Na-kel Smith]
Give it to you straight, no frills
What I think might pay the bills
Spit on the cam like Makaveli (Fuck y’all)
Came home in the 2011
Pasadena John calling me relly
Ain’t know where none of this shit was headed (I ain’t even know)
And a LAC not gon’ protect me
Bro just crashed, fucked up his Dodge
Now he shopping for another Hemi (?)
Did the dash, got outta dodge
Crashed out grandmama car
They got tipped off by a civilian (Yes sir)
Yes sir, think I already feel it
Sweatshirt, ’cause you know how revenge is best served
Cold dish (Pressure cookin’ roast)
No assist, I’m out here on a mission
Triple doublin’ offa the strips
Get ghost like I need a killer
Get ghost like a apparition
Home town hold me down like a rock
So you know how I gotta skip it (Skip, skip it)
So you know just how we living
Took it slow, saw what it could give me
Hit the road, go a mile a minute
Mask on like a supervillain
Daniel, who you in the den with? Lion
Wasn’t lying when I told
Dawg’s on the floor now ’cause I skinned ’em
On the 10, east homebound I just broke down with the camera (?)
Midtown niggas pimpin’ (You know how we get it)
Iceberg MAC kinda slim
What they couldn’t see sink the ships
Capsize mean you’s a flip (We know you)
Send a postcard from the depth
Bleed the vein ’til nothing left
You look drained, you should get some rest (Yeah, go get some rest)
You look drained, you should get some rest
