Danny Brown's "Old" Available For Free Stream
Detroit rapper, Danny Brown, recently released a stream of his new album, "Old," on Spotify. This highly anticipated album will be officially released on Fools Gold Records, October 8th, while Brown was digitally featured on the front page of Complex Magazine earlier today.
The 19-track album features appearances from Purity Ring, Ab-Soul, Schoolboy Q, A$AP Rocky, and more, along with production from Rustie, Dark Q Freaker, and A-Trak.
Rapping about anything from his favorite sandwich bread to watching a crack head light up his pipe, "Old," is an emblematic representation of the emerging nu-skool style of hip-hop. Reminiscent of rap’s freshest odd-balls such as Joey Badass and A$AP Rocky, this fresh new take on hip-hop rises up from the ranks of the many faceless trap-rap producers on the scene.
At 30 years-old Brown’s distinctive style emerges from a colorful array of dark and painful first hand experiences. Brown's life has been haunted by drugs being consumed and sold, creating a sense of depravity that evokes a new kind of heart pounding high.
"On, 'Torture,' I rap about seeing my uncle smoke rocks off a stove when I was 7... My whole family, one way or another, had something to do with drugs," said Brown in the Complex Magazine article.
Danny Brown is currently finishing up a tour with Action Bronson and Trash Talk, and will be back in New York on November 22nd at Terminal 5 with Sleigh Bells and Doldrums. Below is the official video for "Dip", a track off the new album.
