On Twitter last night, Brown posted a 30-second audio clip with the caption XXXX, which was enough to get people talking. Brown’s last album was 2019’s excellent uknowhatimsayin¿, recorded with executive producer Q-Tip. In 2020, Brown has been relatively quiet, despite collaborations with producers Jimmy Edgar and Black Noi$e and incarcerated LA rap king Drakeo The Ruler. It feels good to think about the man holing up and marking a life milestone with a whole new album.

A 30-second Twitter audio clip is not much to go on, but it’s a good 30 seconds. In that clip, Brown raps over a strange, nearly drumless loop made up of synth-plinks and acoustic-guitar strums. In Brown’s replies, someone identified that beat: “Circuitloop,” an instrumental that the LA producer and NxWorries member Knxwledge released earlier this year. On that track, Brown sounds relatively quiet but fully dialed-in, and he namechecks Kenny Lattimore, Macklemore, and Ray Allen’s He Got Game character Jesus Shuttlesworth.



Brown turns 40 in March. XXX came out in August of 2011. It would be cool if we got a new Danny Brown album before August of 2021, but I’ll take what I can get.

I'm in.

Last album was solid but imma b real, not much replay value. It wasnt bad but just felt slightly above average. I like that he sober and happy but sometimes ppl make the best music when they on drugs n fukked up:manny:

I kinda wouldnt mind a return to XXX/1st half of Old......atrocity was too pretentiously experimental....was overrated imo

I hope Skywalker does some beats:blessed: and not Paul White....his shyt b mid for the most part:ld:
