Earl Sweatshirt and The Alchemist tease new joint album with London show
It looks like Earl Sweatshirt and The Alchemist will be dropping a new joint album this week.
The producer sparked excitement for an upcoming album on Tuesday when he posted a track list on Instagram with the title 'Voir Dire'. It includes 11 songs, with titles such as '27 Braids' and 'Free the Ruler,' as well as a guest feature that was blurred out.
Fuelling the speculation, The Alchemist posted a flyer earlier today (August 23) promoting a show in London on Friday headlined by himself and Earl Sweatshirt.
“Earl Sweatshirt + The Alchemist Present: VOIR DIRE,” reads the poster. “Location: Jazz Cafe, 5 Parkway, London NW1 7PG, UK. Aug 25 22:30 – 03:00.”
The Jazz Cafe’s website doesn’t mention the new album, but it does promise a “once in a lifetime party” featuring a “finely curated lineup of local heroes and global giants,” while also telling attendees to “expect the unexpected.”
The show follows Earl Sweatshirt’s concert at KOKO on Friday evening celebrating the 10th anniversary of his debut album 'Doris'.
'Voir Dire' will mark Sweatshirt and Alchemist’s first full-length album, and the rapper's latest album since 2022’s 'Sick!'. Alchemist’s previous collaborative projects include works with June (The Great Escape), Curren$y (Continuance), Roc Marciano (The Elephant Man's Bones) and Freddie Gibbs (Alfredo).
