Mick Jenkins will release a new album this summer.
The Chicago rapper will drop 'The Patience' through RBC Records/BMG on August 18, following up 2021's 'Elephant In The Room'.
It's led by the new single Smoke Break-Dance, which sees Jenkins joined by Atlanta native JID over jazz-inspired production by Stoic. Head below to check out the accompanying video, directed by Andre Muir.
"As best I can be, I am a person who does everything within his power to change his situation. I think with some level of consistency, that behavior inevitably leads you to a point where you have to wait. A point where the things that now need to happen to move you forward are no longer in your control," Jenkins commented.
"I see this as a period of time in one's journey, no matter the length, where the unseen things must take place; The muscles must tear and repair, the understanding of a concept coming to you in a moment completely devoid of artistic intention. It’s through these moments where I’ve found myself being the most frustrated with patience. And this body of work sounds like that frustration."
