As we await the release of his forthcoming album, These Days Ab-Soul releases "Stigmata," featuring Action Bronson and Philadelphia artist Asaad. TDE has promised six albums this year, announcing that fans have will have the final say as to when Soul will release his LP next month. So far, the rumoured dates are either June 3, 10, 17, and the 24th. Until then, take in the gloomy "Stigmata," produced by Rahki below. 
As Top Dawg Entertainment's Ab-Soul readies the release of his third studio album, he gives fans what they've been waiting for. "Tree Of Life" features high-powered lyricism along with a commanding beat, produced by Curtiss King. Listen to the Black Hippy member stump the competition below. 
I gotta be honest. I used to be a huge Lupe fan back in the day but I kinda wrote him off after "The Cool". Years passed and my music library expanded, burying all my favourite Lupe songs so while this recent activity doesn't indicate a "comeback", it certainly feels that way to me. It's still early 2014 and Lupe has released a couple bangers already ("Thot 97" and "$nitches"), all part of generating interest for his new album, "Tetsuo & Youth". A few minutes ago, Lupe (or, according to the watermark, Ab-Soul) was kind enough to drop "Thorns & Horns", a truly collaborative effort between the 2 wordsmiths. I'm happy that Ab-Soul didn't phone-in a verse for this as it's truly remarkable to hear them both go back & forth on the 3rd verse. Peep below. 
2014 is already gearing up to be a hell of a year, release-wise. With DZA's "Dream.ZONE.Achieve" coming out April 1st and Ab-Soul's album coming out in a "couple more months" (according to ScHoolboy Q's Q&A on Facebook), "Hearses" couldn't have come at a more opportune time. Although DZA really does his thing on this track, I have to admit I was more excited to hear Soul go the fuck in; it really made up for the lack of Ab-Soul tracks the internet has suffered as of late. Oh, did I mention that DJ Dahi creates an absolute banger of an instrumental? Peep below.
