GRAMMY-nominated ATL rap duo EARTHGANG have just announced that their new album Perfect Fantasy will be out later this month on October 29th and shared that the LP’s lead single “Love You More” (featuring T-Pain) will be out on October 11th. The news arrives alongside the announcement of their two upcoming headlining shows in Mexico City (October 29th) and Tokyo (December 5th).
Heavily inspired by Japanese culture, Perfect Fantasy is the next chapter in the duo’s experimental EARTHGANG VS. The Algorithm series following the release of futuristic ROBOPHOBIA EP earlier this year, which included features from Snoop Dogg, Spillage Village, and Tommy Newport. A conceptual project that explores the effects of AI on society, Perfect Fantasy finds EARTHGANG questioning the ways advanced technologies are consuming our lives and dreaming of an alternate universe where humans could live more freely.
The LP is the latest instalment in what has been a strong year for EARTHGANG, who recently shared their Snakehips collab EP, SNAKEGANG, this summer.
Since signing to J. Cole’s Dreamville Records in 2017, EARTHGANG have emerged as the contemporary torchbearers of Afrofuturism, continuing to redefine what’s possible in hip-hop by blending sounds that challenge the status quo. After debuting on the Billboard charts with their 2019 album Mirrorland (#22 on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart), the duo have gone on to receive GRAMMY nominations for two of their songs — Best Rap Performance for “Down Bad” featuring J. Cole, JID, Bas and Young Nudy (400M+ Streams) and Best R&B Song for “Collide” with Tiana Major9 (100M+ Streams) off the Queen & Slim Soundtrack.
Winning the BET Award for Best Duo Or Group in 2022, EARTHGANG have maintained their momentum with impactful cultural moments, like creating their single “Swing” featuring Benji (35M+ Streams) for Marvel’s Spider Man 2 and a partnership with Nike for their ESSENTIALS campaign.
