Earl Sweatshirt took to Twitter last night to talk details of his forthcoming second album.

The 18-year-old rapper and Odd Future member posted tweet after tweet, teasing fans with brief details of the record.

Although he didn’t go as far to reveal the title or a release date, he did reveal that it would feature guests such as Pharrell Williams, The Neptunes, Frank Ocean, and Tyler, The Creator.

Amongst all sorts of ramblings, he posted: ‘You wanna know why im not in europe with the squad? I’m finishing this album.

‘I’m just trying to make pretty music. Everyone whose favorite song off EARL was epar or whatever might be pretty bummed. I anticipate a loss of fans. I also anticipate gaining some.

‘I fucking love how it sounds. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that you can hear the progression.’ before later adding: ‘What if i got kidnapped and murdered by crazy nicaraguan killers before anyone could hear it. I’d be bummed.’

The whole thing is pasted below, for those brave enough:

‘You wanna know why im not in europe with the squad? Im finishing this album. Im just trying to make pretty music. Everyone whose favorite song off EARL was epar or whatever might be pretty bummed. Everyone with 666 or KTA or some sort of stupid hashtag like “hey look im crazy” in their bio might be pretty bummed too. I anticipate a loss of fans. I also anticipate gaining some. So. You know. Yeah.
‘I hope i lose you as a fan if you only fuck with me cause i rapped about raping girls when i was 15. I fucking love how it sounds. And uhh. Thats what matters. Im gonna go out on a limb and say that you can hear the progression.

‘Christian Rich // The Neptunes // Tyler, The Creator // randomblackdude // Domo Genesis // Vince Staples // Tyler, The Creator // BBNG // Pharrell Williams // Thundercat // Ommas Keith // Frank Ocean // And Earl Sweatshirt. Thats the list of folks who did work on _____. Oh and samiyam and alchemist!!!!! Oh yeah and casey veggies!! And matt and syd.

‘What if i got kidnapped and murdered by crazy nicaraguan killers before anyone could hear it. I’d be bummed. What if tom cruise killed me for being extra’d out. Its funny cause alchemist is also better at rapping than everyone. Its actually fucked up.

‘Uzowuru just stopped me from dropping the album title.’

There we are then.
