Aesop Rock drops his next video/single "Pizza Alley"

Aesop Rock, one of underground hip-hop’s most enduring and illuminating talents, has just shared a second single leading into the release of his new album Spirit World Field Guide (set for release on November 13 via Rhymesayers)

“Pizza Alley” picks up right where previous track “The Gates” left off, pulling listeners deeper into a broadening narrative that is rife with increasingly unhinged and hallucinatory imagery and animations, an apt parallel to the song’s lyrically labyrinthian paean to the album’s titular world. 

The collection, arguably the most expansive and ambitious work in the verbose MC/producer’s storied career, is a concept album of sorts; a guide to an upside-down world revealed across 21 insightful chapters of firsthand know-how of the terrain, wildlife, and social customs of our parallel universe. The world explored on the album bears a lot of similarities to our own, especially in its current state. 

The free-floating anxiety, the looming existential dread, the paranoia and suspicion that define our moment? It’s all familiar turf for Aesop. The path through the Spirit World is the path to freedom, and while Aesop will show you the way, he won’t hold your hand. He can’t. 

We all have to take this journey ourselves. There aren’t any shortcuts, but if you keep your ears open you will find the way.

"Spirit World Field Guide" is out on 13th November- https://rse.lnk.to/SpiritWorldFieldGuide
