Earl's Major Label debut, coming in 2013! Earlier this year Earl Sweatshirt signed a deal with Columbia Records/Sony to have his own record label imprint, called Tan Cressida, on which 'Doris' will be released.
Of the follow-up to his 2010 debut, 'Earl', the teenager rapper has said: "I anticipate a loss of fans. I also anticipate gaining some. So. You know. Yeah… I hope i lose you as a fan if you only fuck with me cause i rapped about raping girls when i was 15… I fucking love how it sounds. And uhh. Thats what matters… Im gonna go out on a limb and say that you can hear the progression."
Earl announced the album's release date to be August 20th on Twitter. We also got the official track list and cover added.
Watch and listen to the first single from Doris, Chum, below.
Earl has come so far you hear it in chum. Lyrically he is a monster…
Should be a stellar release from DOOM’s heir.
Well said. He really is the next DOOM!
Earl is the best in the game right now, he is one of the best lyricists of all time and he’s not even 20 yet, Earl kills it on every track.
He is not even close to being one of the best lyricists of all time. Although this album is said to be a lot different than his earlier stuff you are jumping the gun big time saying he is one of the best. Let’s see how well he can rap about stuff other than rape.
Are you crazy? the kid spit pure FIRE he’s up there with HOV, Emimem, Lupe, Doom. Disagree with me now i give no fucks but 4-5 years from now we’ll see who’s right
your grammar is horrible but he is great no doubt. hes spits as much hot fire as Dylan. i will give him some time for sure. the rappers you mentioned in your reply are not what anyone with a head on their shoulders would consider the greats.(doom excluded) where is Q- tip, Del, Phife, Slug, jeru, guru, CL smooth on you list of great MCs?
open your mind to real hip hop then lets just let earl slip into that list when he is ready
deal?
y’all two nailed all the artists I would consider, i think your both right.
I agree with this guy right here (Name). Earl spits and can tell stories and is seriously one of the up and comers but one of the best lyricists of all time? With Nas, Jedi Mind, Immortal, Canibus, Black Star, CYNE, Brother Ali? C’mon now.
Amen!
Earl is good for his young age. He still needs to mature more.
you have to to be kidding with lupe on your list, right?
Ummm…have u heard any of Lupe’s mixtapes? Don’t just scratch the surface…Lupe undoubtedly has to be one of the most underrated artists
lupe just isnt big because he aint illuminati. jay z wanted to sign him but he refused.
you are an idiot
Lupe IS the greatest lyricist of all time. Put You On Game. Lupe Back. Dumb It Down. Just a few songs. His songs are conceptual. Of course people with small brains wont understand.
tell me why he hasn’t put out more then 1 really good album?
Are you kidding??? 4 Albums…..4 Grammy nominations for Best Rap Album of The Year. Are you fucking psycho.
No, he isnt psycho, he just knows that he isnt the best out there. So many other artists out there that do spit real hip hop but they never get their due
IS the most underrated artist because noone wants to hear positivity…Disappointing world. Really just the U.S. He is super loved all across the world though.
nice.
i did not once see anyone say anything about aesop rock. and your talking about “AMAZING TOP OF THE LINE HISTORY “lyricists”
Kendrick is the best because he always spits hard even when hes just featured and he grew up with a tough life and has something real to sing about.
Kendrick a bitch nigga.
nah he’s the type to go hiatus i see it happning a lot like MF
ummm no you cant compared em to em you crazy.
Don’t forget about ghostface
Eminem and HOV? they aint even the best
Actually……he has rapped about stuff other than rape and drugs, just have to find the music, the ones people don’t hear very often from him.
Kill yourself.
Not all of these newer releases are about rape…
In fact, none of these newer releases are about rape.
The only “rape”-y thing mentioned is Tyler’s verse on Sasquatch when he mentions stuffing One Direction fans in the back of his van.
you sound like an idiot sir. goodnight and don’t ever write any buffoonery like this again
Kill yourself. Earl is the best alive and better than those that are dead.
There is no way earl is better than biggie, pac, em, big L, or kendrick lamar if u wanna go new school. you must be high on somethin because even though he is pretty good, he is not on their level yet.
Kendrick is overrated. His own album is pretty decent but any time hes featured he makes an ass of himself. I wouldn’t go as far as saying earl is the best right now but hes definitely up there and doesn’t deserve to be shit on.
Pretty decent? lol and go listen to section 80 better than any of earl’s work and I’m a fan of both.
word. kendrick = most overrated rapper of all time
loll
lol are you now satisfied with kendrick as a feature?
lol
i agreed with you till you mentioned kendrick lamar his music its ok but hes a fag
Big L was a great freestyler and had some good songs but only put up there with the other BIgs and pac because he died I like him but Earl is def better than L and Kendrick is sick but def overrated as timcakes said
Kendrick is overrated. He has good beats, but lyrical value? -10/+10
Sing About Me, I’m Dying of Thirst has more “lyrical value” than anything Earl has ever done. Those are some soulful lyrics. Fuck Your Ethnicity, Kush and Corinthians and Art of Peer Pressure are just as substantial. He’s a great storyteller, MC and has an ear for beats.
your just plain fuckin retarded
*You’re
And you forgot to end your sentence with a punctuation mark. Now that I’ve schooled you, I’m off to fuck your bitch.
u dont listen to kendrick lamar
Better than biggie and pac, two of the most overrated hip hop artists of all time, only reason any one holds them on the level is because they died before they could sell out. Kendrick is okay but defiantly doesn’t have the raw talent of Earl. Em and Big L are defiantly better lyricists. But you sir are one of those people who when asked about there top 10 favorite rappers probably just drop dead rappers names. “My top 10 is big L, big pun, biggie, pac,..” etc etc.
He is better than Pac as far as technicality goes. Way to pick the most stereotypical “rap greats” choices too, no 12 year old with 0 knowledge of rap could’ve done better.
im sorry lol but Eminem and immortal technique are still alive lmao earl has mad skills and he is clever but not good enough for that title and even dead rappers? and it depends what dead rappers you are referring to
Eminem is a crybaby as nigga, boo hoo he miss his daughter and hate his wife, he need to grow up.
Earl kills every track, period.
Lol bruh how does Earl’s ass taste? You’ve been over here sayin how Godly he raps but yet Em, Biggie, Logic, Jay-Z etc destroy him. Look I like earl & im excited to go cop his album on tuesday, but I hate middle schooler dick riders like yourself. Eminem is the goat on debating on that. Earl got killed on Rusty by Tyler. Damn bruh go back to your shine & worship Earl so more.
thank you!
Okay half of Jay.Z albums sucked, ESPECIALLY MCHG & American Gangster. I like Slim Shady, I hate Eminem; they aren’t the same egos. Logic, I fucks with him, he hella dope, right below Earl though. Biggie….FOH. Pac?….FOH.
eminem is the best rapper hands down, earl is okay. ima cop this album but just wait till em drops his shit, youll see how much of a “crybaby ass nigga” he is
Earl’s great and all, but almost everytime he does a song with Vince Staples, Vince’s verse kills Earl’s
FOH. Nigga, Earl didn’t even finish his verse on Tyler, the Creator’s song “Rusty” AND he STILL killed Tyler AND Domo. I’ma slap ya grandma for that stupid ass comment.
Tyler’s verse on Rusty is one of the best verses i’ve ever heard. Don’t get ahead of yourself.
asap rocky
drake
kendrick lamar
eminem
schoolboy q
mac miller
big sean
royce da 5’9
ace hood…
like what the fuck are you on? i can name about 20 more rappers better than earl and 10 more rappers that died that are better than him
WTF! Big Sean, Mac Miller, Drake, ASAP, and Ace Hood are nowhere close to Earl!
your crazy! Big Sean is good as shit and his album will destroy earls, i just listened to earls album and its okay. but joey badass is the best lyricist, not earl. he needs to step it up, like kendrick lamar was sayin in control.
Hol up, hol up, hol up, HOL UP!
Big Sean, he is greatness and so is Mac Miller, but Drake, ASAP & Ace Hood?
Drake= type of nigga that’ll fuck yo girl and try to get y’all back together.
A$AP= nothing but a typical pothead that says to be “different’ than other pothead rappers
Ace Hood= Idk why the fuck you mentioned him, just go headbutt a knife for that.
hahaha you named mac miller and drake better than earl on lyrical ability. you are a faggot with an 8th grade IQ
haha your funny as shit yo, just watch. earls album is ass nigga, so both of you go head butt a dick you dick licking mothafuckaaaaaaa
Name them.
yeah your retarded, clearly earl is better than shitty rappers like k-lama
Bro, do you even listen to music? Krizz Kaliko is the best in the game. Bar none. Now, Lyricism?? Strange Music, Inc. holds that title. This little boy still needs experience. when he’s 4 or 5 albums deep (none of that mixtape shit), then maybe we can consider him a factor.
Wonder why noone liked your comment. Obviously need to expand your realm. Start with Lupe’s “The Cool” the only concept album ever in hip-hop… Just saying…
Oh, cool, someone who has never heard of Dr. Octagon
Or A Prince Among Thieves, Deltron 3030, Black Trash, GKMC etc.
MM.. FOOD?
Not best in game right now but top 5 lyricist for sure. Lupe is what I hope Earl evolves into within 5 years. Earl is still young so only time will tell.
I think Doris is a top 3 album of year. Gonna be tough to top Production and concept of “Wolf”. Regardless in my opinion this has been Odd Future’s year.
Wolf was essentially trash (at least when you consider the fact that it is supposed to be a rap album… and every verse he spits on it is trash).
What good is a well-produced rap album if the rapping sucks? Tyler’s verse on Sasquatch is better than anything he spit on Wolf.
not the best bruh but he is raw the best in the game is Kendrick Lamar hands down
not the best kendrick lamar is the best but earl is 2nd
Cant wait til this drops. Earl has the potential to make this my favorite album ever.
cant wait for this, chum was so good
earl is rap nigga
yup
i WANT DIS
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anRkutaPS9w NEW EARL TRACK WITH TYLER – “Whoa”
New single off this album “Whoa” it is a awesome track that features Earl Sweatshirt of course and Tyler, The Creator. The Song is definitely different then the first single “Chum” and has a closer feeling to his 2010 stuff like Tyler says at the start of the song.
Parts of the new album were previewed at an Earl x Flying Lotus show including “whoa” a few days before its official release as the second single off the LP and “burgundy”, a previously unreleased or nearly unobtainable cooperation with Pharell of N.E.R.D. fame.
Also, so far this album seems to be Earl/EarlWolf… ♥eata€===$
Whoa is sounding dope af. I hope the album doesn’t disappoint. I have high hopes for Earl! Probably the only person I can see in the game after OF loses relevance.
Tyler will produce I think. Hodgy and Domo are both under rated
Domo seriously impressed me on Tyler’s song “Rusty”… would really like to see him do well

Lol. It’s nowhere on the internet.
this was posted before wolf came out, and has all of wolfs songs right, pls link me to this place
The only reason why a made an account for, yep, doris.
what?! what about nas, big l, stack bundles, kendrick lamar, joey bada$$, common, or vado?
common and kendrick, yes. what should i be listening to by joey bada$$? hasn’t impressed me yet
Earl is the only rapper I’m blown away by lyrically
then you probably havent listened to MF doom, aesop rock, jay-z and a lot of others haha. Earl is amazing no doubt though
Doom Yes..Aesop, dope, Jay Z..Uhhhhhhhh, has been.
Jay-Z lyrically is trash…Show me something where he aint bragging about money. Post-2003
Jay Z Blue
still the only thing you could find
Is there any rumours about a possible release date?
I’d guess it will be sometime this summer. He finishes his tour with tyler in may and goes around festivals during the summer which would lead to a solo tour after the release of the album by the end of august.
It seems that the entire world is waiting to hear this kid. Not only was his debut raps on Earl (album) shockingly good and lyrically mesmerizing, but his hype parade has just been gathering momentum waiting for his official studio release. Make no mistake, Doris is going to shock, awe and capture the hip hop world.
What more need be said in praise and demand of Earl? Definitely high on my list of things to look forward to this year.
Where can I get the song ” HIVE ” ?
He just released it on itunes.
