JPEGMAFIA has kept busy lately as an opening act for Linkin Park (no really), but today the rapper has shared that he has a new album set to drop in under a month. Experimental Rap will be out May 21, with the project’s first cut, “Babygirl,” arriving today. True to the album’s title, the single features about two minutes of breathless verses from the emcee before a very Linkin-Park-opener guitar riff outros the track.
Experimental Rap will serve as JPEG’s follow-up to 2024’s I Lay Down My Life for You and his album-length collaboration with Danny Brown from the year prior. Check out the new single below (with its Tha-Carter-like cover), and see a bunch of Ye-esque, dictatorship-chic photos promoting the release on the rapper’s IG announcement.
