About

EARTHGANG’s third proper album, <i>Mirrorland</i>, comes just two short months after their label Dreamville’s much-celebrated <i>Revenge of the Dreamers III</i> compilation. The recording sessions for that project, as documented by the camp themselves, seemed more like friends hanging out than MCs going to work. For <i>Mirrorland</i>, however, the duo is all business, reclaiming the space they once made for labelmates and collaborators to deliver a more concentrated storyline of their lives as young hip-hop outcasts. “Everybody’s trapping/Everybody’s hard/Everybody’s fucking/Everybody’s broad,” they declare with audible boredom on “LaLa Challenge.” On “UP,” they revel in finding success while moving outside of typical hip-hop circles, and then they come back around to offer fans an alternative to the status quo on “This Side.” They’ve tapped just a handful of guests to help tell the tale, most notably Young Thug, T-Pain, and Kehlani—artists whose voices are similarly distinctive—all while making music under a name that declares them to be proudly of this world.
