Kevin Abstract by Lucas Creighton
Kevin Abstract will release it on November 3rd.
Kevin Abstract has confirmed the details of his new album Blanket.
“I wanted to make, like, a Sunny Day Real Estate, Nirvana, Modest Mouse type of record,” he said, “but I wanted it to hit like a rap album.”
His follow-up to 2019’s Arizona Baby, it’s the first since Brockhampton entered an indefinite hiatus upon the release of The Family just under a year ago.
“I understand that some of the fans are upset that no one is on the album but me,” Abstract said at the time. “Over the past few years, the members of the band began to move our separate ways, and focus on our individual careers and passions.”
“With this project, a few of us were inspired to make something new that would bring closure to the past, and set the table for all of us to finally be able to explore our individual futures. I hope you understand and enjoy the music.”
I feel like whoever is reading this – whoever has been with BROCKHAMPTON since the beginning deserves some sort of closure. The album is an attempt at that. Thanks for giving us a chance. For holding me up. Holding me down. For being everything I needed when I was just some nigga from Texas. I still am. Yeah, this show is over, but the furnace is still glowing.
