Ab-Soul Drops “Threatening Nature,” Reveals Cover Art and Release Date for New Album
Ab-Soul‘s new album, DWTW, is on the way and now we have the first track, “Threatening Nature.”
Produced by PakkMusicGroup, the track features Ab-Soul rapping over a minimal backbeat with some throbbing percussion helping to set the tone.
The Top Dawg Entertainment rapper has been dropping hints all over the place that something might be coming by sharing the hashtag #DWTW with his fans across his social media accounts. The new song release follows Ab-Soul sharing the Bas-assisted video for “Braille” just last month.
All the way back in February, TDE CEO Anthony Tiffith hinted that 2016 would see an Ab-Soul album release. Soul told his fans the tracklist for his new album had been turned in over the summer, but Tiffith announced the album wasn’t finished yet as recently as October, hinting at some last-minute changes. As the final month of the year approached, fans were starting to worry that it wasn’t going to happen. Fortunately, it looks like Ab-Soul is delivering on Tiffith’s promise.
Listen to “Threatening Nature” below and look for the album to arrive this Friday, Dec. 9.
