Earl Sweatshirt Releases Surprise Album ‘Live Laugh Love’ with Underground Heavyweights

Earl Sweatshirt quietly drops his sixth album, Live Laugh Love, on August 22, 2025.

He revealed the track list, cover art and release date on Instagram with a LeBron James meme, the kind of image that says “is this really happening?” It might be a nod to Earl and Aida Osman recently welcoming their baby girl.

Aida shared maternity photos taken with a self timer in their backyard, writing: “It’s always perfect because it’s ours! Live Laugh Love everyone.”

The album has no guest rappers, but the credits highlight Earl’s usual circle of underground collaborators: Theravada, Navy Blue, Black Noi$e, Child Actor and Earl himself.

At a listening party, Earl did not show. Instead, an imposter performed tracks while guests received zines listing contributors like Steven Yeun, Liv.e, Cheryl Harris, The Alchemist, Sage Elsesser (Navy Blue), BKTHERULA, Dave Chappelle, Donald Glover, Vince Staples, Hiro Murai and Aida Osman.
