Danny Brown releases album early

Danny Brown releases album 'Atrocity Exhibition' early, ahead of scheduled September 30th date.

Originally slated for Friday, September 30th, Danny Brown surprised fans around the world this afternoon during a Twitter Q&A with the early release today of his album, Atrocity Exhibition. As Danny told fans, “Yo whattup bruisers this is Atrocity Exhibition out today. Couldn’t hold it no more longer so had to get the music to the people. Love all y’all everybody check it out.” In the months leading up, Danny has teased with the Mimi Cave-directed video for “When It Rain”, streams of “Pneumonia”, posse cut “Really Doe” featuring Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul and Earl Sweatshirt.

Atrocity Exhibition offers listeners a fresh and bold take on Brown’s ruminations on life and the changes that have occurred -and those that didn’t -following the ups and downs of career success. Atrocity Exhibition is another installment in the Danny Brown biopic, following the releases of his Fool’s Gold albums XXX and Old, and collaborations with an eclectic range of artists such as Ghostface Killah, Purity Ring, Rustie, Charli XCX, E-40,the Avalanches and more.

Brown’s words can be found further amplified on this album with massive beats and production by frequent collaborator Paul White and additional contributions from Evian Christ, The Alchemist and Black Milk. Featured guest vocals come from label-mate Kelela, Cypress Hill member B-Real and South African rising act Petite Noir. Pairing his views on the irreconcilable differences between the future and the realities of the present.
