After roughly six years, we can officially say that Ab-Soul is back.
His first full-length album since 2016’s Do What Thou Wilt., Soulo will release his fifth album Herbert on December 16. Described as “leaving the conspiracy theories he’s known for behind while emphasizing his musicality,” this project is shaping up to be his most personal work to date.
Following the previous releases “Hollandaise,” “Moonshooter” and “Do Better,” Soul shares the album’s latest focus track “Gang’Nem” with Fre$h. On the track — and accompanying visual treatment — he pays homage to his roots in Carson, CA, detailing where he’s from and the lifestyle he grew up around.
Welcome back!
