Earl Sweatshirt was a mere 16-years-old when he was plucked from mixtape obscurity by Tyler, The Creator, to join the Odd Future crew. He’s crammed in a chunk of stuff since then, going top five in the Billboard charts, and collabs with the likes of Pharell Williams, RZA and even celebrated legal scholar Cheryl Harris (who happens to be his mum). His most recent set, Voir Dire (‘speak truth’), saw him hook up with DJ Muggs protege The Alchemist. Expect lyrical gymnastics, and support from Black Noi$e.
