Vince Staples Prepping ‘Dark Times’ Album, Drops Contemplative ‘Shame on the Devil’ Video
Vince Staples will drop his next album, 'Dark Times,' on Friday (May 24), previewed by the contemplative single, 'Shame on the Devil.'
The 13-track collection is described in a release as “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.” The other side of the screen portrays the shadows of a woman and a child arguing in a room with a man in profile who, at one point, removes the halo hovering over his head as Staples rap/sings, “Shame on the devil/ I’m touched by an angel/ The lord made me special.” “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?”
