Earl Sweatshirt "Feet Of Clay"
FORMAT | LP
The project largely produced by Earl, features Haiti’s Mach-Hommy, emerging phenom Mavi with additional production from Alchemist and Ovrkast. FEET OF CLAY arrives after the release of Earl's Some Rap Songs LP, which earned critical acclaim from the likes of The New Yorker, Rolling Stone, The Guardian, Pitchfork, The Atlantic, NME and many more. The title FEET OF CLAY is a reference to the Bible's Book of Daniel. Said Earl of the project, “'FOC' is a collection of observations and feelings recorded during the death throes of a crumbling empire”
Earl Sweatshirt is the virtuosic byproduct of Los Angeles’ fertile ground where hip hop sowed its seeds and historic cultural movements were born. The prodigiously gifted writer, lyricist and producer grew from a zeitgeist of which contemporary collectives in hip hop today are predicated. And while most movements are fleeting as soon as they arrive, Earl pushed forward, documented his growth and self-discovery on record and cemented himself as one of the foremost culturally relevant MC’s in the game. One who never strayed away too far from his Los Angeles beat-scene roots. His debut album Doris arrived in 2013 and introduced the world to a more realized vision from him than his.
