Vince Staples Launches New Album ‘Dark Times’ With First Single ‘Shame on the Devil’


Vince Staples has announced his sixth album 'Dark Times,' out May 24, with the teaser music video and single 'Shame on the Devil.'

A release for the record describes it as being “a muscular and revelatory work refining elements that have been present in his catalog for the last decade: dense lyricism over lush, layered beats; wry, melancholic observations about life; finding pockets of light in an endless dark.” “I’ve seen the love for the Hive verse, amongst other things, over the last few days, and I appreciate it,” he posted on X (formerly Twitter), referring to his appearance on Early Sweatshirt’s 2013 release that recently received a surge of attention online. Dark Times tracklist: “Close Your Eyes and Swing”“Black & Blue”“Government Cheese”“Children’s Song”“Shame On the Devil”“Étouffée”“Liars”“Justin”“‘Radio’”“Nothing Matters”“Little Homies”“Freeman”“Why Won’t the Sun Come Out?”
