New single “In My Soul” out now too

Full album 11-17-2026

Tearing up writing this caption. I’ve been laboring over this album for a little over 3 years & there were moments I was unsure this would even see the light of day of I’ll be real with you. I thought I didn’t resonate with these songs at one point. I think that self-consciousness came from life lifing in 2025, but 2026 has been very enlightening and a getting back on track. Thank you to Messiah Musik for being a genuine human being on top of producing some of the illest rap songs on planet earth. To @cunabear + Beartooth for being a true rag tag group of found family who stand on their morals and authenticity, no matter what. To @shemar.alexander for the countless phone calls and texts back and forth about this album and its mixes, helping me hold my imposter syndrome at a minimum when I needed hope + helping me become a engineer and artist in the long run. To @microsedose / @cvsketgirl for being with me through a bulk of this albums creation— probably the most grueling creation process I’ve had. This album is about coping with the fact that I graduated to a world that doesn’t care for the writers, ecstatics, and the “real weirdos” (word to @rhyslangston on that last one). There’s a lot of molting in molten, and genuinely this album is basically an audio interpretation of me going through a hell, where I’m being burnt alive and by the end of it, I’m found with “nerves over my eyes and veins over my skin” (word to Lamantia), though still alive and through the worst of it.

This is technically my 3rd album in the span of my like 20 something projects I’ve created, alongside “Scabbed Over Stars On My Ex-Haired Chest” (2020) + “WON’T HIDE THE MADNESS” (2021), and if I look at the bigger picture, this is a trilogy of albums in a lot of ways. Lots more to say but show some love! Link in bio ❤️

I ordered a small batch of vinyl for my most-recent rap album, “EREMITION”, that I could distribute direct-to-consumer for a cheaper price instead of having to ask folks to rely on international shipping fees & extended wait-times.

Every copy will be signed & numbered, & comes with:
x1 Flash Drive containing the Instrumentals + Music Videos from the album
x1 Custom pack of cunabear Joint Papers [1 1/4", 100% Hemp Paper]
x1 Collectivle Artwork Trading Card
x1 Pack of Stickers

I think that, while for the foreseeable future I’ll continue to offer the vinyl records in my catalog as they are for folks who miss out on a record’s initial run, I’ll be transitioning to this format for future roll-outs so that the cheaper, more feature-filled offer is available upfront.

The Bear Cub Fan Club gets early access to everything!
Sign-up for as little as $1/month @ cunabear.com/supporters

@beartoothcollective forever 🤘🏾🐻🦷💙
S/o @elasticstage for making vinyl available and affordable for independent artists 🙏🏾

“GHOST BROADCAST” (Music Video), from the self-produced @cunabear album, “EREMITION”, released on September 1st 2026 via @beartoothcollective

“This song is about the cyclical nature of learning life-lessons, making mistakes, and making sure we don’t let those mistakes define us as we grow, transition, and navigate the world around us. It’s an observational perspective on adaptability.”

Enormous shoutouts to @thatdopeshft for seeing hearing and understanding my work in a way not many folks do. The homie wrote some amazing kind and insightful words about my latest album, “EREMITION”, and I’d really appreciate it if you took some time to read his carefully written words.
Even beyond the context of this review of my work, Nuggs & The Shfters are a community of Hip-Hop journalism and analysis that I hold in high-regard and that @beartoothcollective are proud supporters of!

Definitely run up their Patreon, Website / Newsletter, & YouTube channel! They deserve to be seen and heard, f’sho!

Thank you all again for supporting the new album! If you have the time, spin the record back a time or two, purchase a copy if you feel so inclined to support ya boy directly!

There’s a new music video coming out on 9/20/2026 (It’s dropping EARLY on my website for paid Bear Cub Fan Club members! 👀) & a limited edition run of wax is on its way to the crib so I can package and ship them ASAP (Again, goodies come out even earlier for website members!)

I hope you’ve been enjoying the first two singles to @messiah_musik and I new album, “The Only Way Forward is Through” out this fall. We’ve been working on this album since February 2023, right after the release of my project “THE LOVE GARDEN ZENDO.” @bloodmoneyperez texted me about a week after I dropped that mixtape with praises, and asked if I’d want to connect w Messiah Musik and make an album for his label. This project and my friendship w Messiah would never have happened had it not been for Bloodmoney and the relationship they had already had. I will forever be grateful to Bloodmoney for giving me this opportunity to get to know one of my favorite producers of all time. Right before I dropped LOVE GARDEN, I was at one of those crossroads where I didn’t really know what direction I wanted to go musically. I wanted to take a break from multi producer projects, and told myself if I did another full length anything, it would have to be w a bucket list producer. It’s a weird moment that I’m still coming to terms with. This project represents so much I’ll get into later, but these two songs themselves represent two of the early breakthrough moments that got me in the flow this album sits in. Shoutout @logandotjpg for helping me put the finishing touches on everything and @beartoothcollective for always holding me down.

The homie @mizerin.noise from @shadedcastle is printing up my design for me, only black on white for now, and only for 2 weeks. I’ll be adding lyrics to the Bandcamp description later this week, and the songs will be everywhere but Spotify in 2 weeks as well. I have some more surprises in store before we drop the tracklist, cover art, and release date on you. Until then, go support the songs on Bandcamp and watch tthe lyric video for “Dreamin’” here on Instagram or on YouTube. Links in bio :)

Happy Bandcamp Friday. If you make a purchase on Bandcamp, I will get all of your dollar. Normally, Bandcamp has fees, but since 2020, they’ve hosted these “Bandcamp Fridays” to get us artists a little more money in our pockets. I don’t have anything new I’m dropping today, but you can find merch for past projects over there + a bunch of digital releases. My most recent is a 3 song EP for $1 I dropped in June, called “Talking to myself” ft production by @bridgeofsand @lunarordietrying @re_choice . My last mixtape “Feeling more, the seasons were as uncertain as I” dropped last November and is still pay what you want, so if you want to download it for free or pay for it for a buck, I appreciate any listens. There’s a live album from earlier this year, my last album/mixtape experiment from 2023, my last proper albums from 2021.. the first single to my new album called “Dreamin’” prod @messiah_musik has also been up since March 2025, with a b side of “MADNESSSUITE” prod @shemar.alexander , which is a song of some tracks from my first album “WONT HIDE THE MADNESS” reimagined over shemar’s immaculate soundscape. I haven’t wanted to advertise “Dreamin’” as the first single to my next album until I knew when I was going to drop it. That mayyy be revealed next Bandcamp Friday, on September 4th, but you’ll definitely get a new single around then + some details on the new album…

If you don’t want to support me, consider supporting some great projects on Bandcamp, which I’ve included as slides on this post. A lot of homies, some people I’m just fans of. Don’t forget about streaming too, even though this is Bandcamp Friday.. I have a lot of friends like @its_krissoap @noservicehq whose new projects aren’t on Bandcamp but are AMAZING + not seeing a pre order for the new @logandotjpg EP but that’s okay!

I’ll be outside tonight if you want to join me (Slides 2 + 3) … Im also going to also be archiving a lot of, if not all of my posts on this page (temporarily) to do some hyping for this new album. I’ll talk to you soon though ❤️ still writing and planning out my blog + updating my website. started a new job canvassing too which has been fruitful. I hope you’re doing good!
