Vince Staples returns with his eighth studio album, Dark Times, which will be released this Friday, May 24th, via Blacksmith Records / Def Jam Recordings. Staples, known for his sharp lyricism and rich, layered beats, is diving deep with this one, exploring life’s darker corners while still finding those glimmers of hope.
Accompanying the album announcement is the release of a new track, ‘Shame on the Devil.‘ If you haven’t heard it yet, do yourself a favour and get on it!
‘Dark Times’ builds on the success of his 2022 album, ‘Ramona Park Broke My Heart,’ which earned rave reviews from Rolling Stone, Clash, Complex, The Fader, and Vulture. It’s safe to say expectations are high, and if the new single is any indication, Staples is about to deliver another banger.
