EarthGang share ‘Amen’ featuring Musiq Soulchild alongside North American tour dates
Atlanta hip-hop duo EarthGang have released ‘Amen’ featuring R&B singer Musiq Soulchild, a new single off their upcoming album ‘Ghetto Gods’.
‘Amen”s confident beat lifts swaggering lyrics like “I’m bout to put a ring on, what you mad at me for / I ain’t tryna pressure you but who better than me boy” as its music video flickers between shots of Earthgang’s Olu and WowGr8 riding around in a car and in front of a gospel choir, among other scenes.
Watch the music video for EarthGang’s ‘Amen’ below.
EarthGang first announced the release of ‘Ghetto Gods’ in November last year with a trailer featuring a snippet of an album track and voiceover narration by 2 Chainz. However, the album failed to materialise on its designated release date of January 28, prompting the duo to release a statement on their Instagram two days later.
“Living every moment for other people can quickly become a prison,” the duo wrote. “We put our life into this Album and want it to see the light of day. Unfortunately, we can’t control everything. Our date was our date and all week we were frustrated and sad that our album wasn’t cleared.”
“We chose to keep some level of privacy as we were dealing with many feelings of disappointment, frustration, uncertainty as the moving pieces seem to never cease spinning. Think about how much this meant to you, now imagine how we feel about our music coming out that we’ve worked on through the peaks and valleys of the last years. So as we navigate this new space, balancing transparency and privacy please grant us grace.”
No new release date has been confirmed for ‘Ghetto Gods’ yet. The record is the follow-up to their 2019 debut, ‘Mirrorland’, and has been executive produced by Kawan “KP” Prather and Since The 80s. ‘Ghetto Gods’ will also feature the previously released songs ‘American Horror Story’ and ‘All Eyes On Me’.
