Clipse Releases First Album in 15 Years Featuring Kendrick Lamar, Pharrell

After a 16-year hiatus, Virginia hip-hop duo Clipse, comprised of brothers Pusha T and Malice, have reunited to release their fourth studio album, Let God Sort Em Out. The 13-track album, produced entirely by Pharrell Williams and recorded at the Louis Vuitton headquarters in Paris, features prominent guest appearances including Kendrick Lamar, Tyler, the Creator, Nas, John Legend, and The-Dream. A key point of contention during production was Def Jam's opposition to Kendrick Lamar's feature on "Chains & Whips," which ultimately led to Clipse buying out their contract and partnering with Roc Nation for distribution. The album art was designed by artist Kaws, and the project includes lead singles such as "Ace Trumpets" and a sequel to "So Be It," where Pusha T targets Travis Scott. The record reflects on the duo’s experiences over the past decade and a half while maintaining their signature style with modern elements, supported by Pharrell's inspired production. Clipse aims for this release to be revolutionary in rap and hopes it will earn them recognition on the Grammy Awards red carpet.
