In keeping with the trend, Earl Sweatshirt's unannounced album appeared on iTunes early this morning. Like Kendrick Lamar's, Earl's surprise release didn't exactly go according to plan. The rapper sent out a string of angry tweets directed toward his label:
I WOULD LIKE TO PERSONALLY THANK @SonyMusicGlobal 4 FUCKING UP THE ROLL OUT PROCESS OF MY SHIT. SOMEONE GOTS 2 PAY 4 THEIR MISTAKES ! #SWEAT

-- EARL (@earlxsweat) March 17, 2015DON'T TRUST IT IF IT DOESN'T COME FROM THE SOURCE
-- EARL (@earlxsweat) March 17, 2015Although his album release didn't exactly work out as flawlessly as Beyoncé's, Earl Sweatshirt shared a new track and music video, "Grief," which is as dark as the title suggests. His album also got a gloriously depressing title: I Don't Like Shit, I Don't Go Outside. According to the iTunes tracklist, Earl Sweatshirt's current tourmate Vince Staples, among others, appears on the album, out March 23. Watch the video for "Grief," above, and check out the album art, below.
