Aminé has unleashed his highly-anticipated new album Limbo. Stream it below with Apple Music and Spotify.
The Portland, OR rapper has been the talk of the hip-hop water cooler since his 2016 single “Caroline”. Aminé wasn’t just vibing on the Caroline of OutKast’s “Roses”; he was channelling the outlandish spirit of André 3000, and energizing rap with his wacky glee. Aminé followed up his debut album Good For You with the 2018 mixtape ONEPOINTFIVE, a darker effort that found the MC exposing his depression while occasionally dipping a toe into the contemporary trap scene. Limbo is his second official studio album.
His budget has certainly had a come-up: Limbo features contributions from Young Thug, Vince Staples, Slowthai, J.I.D, Injury Reserve, Summer Walker, and Charlie Wilson. In a recent interview with Complex, Aminé spoke about how far he’d come and the difficulties of making it as a SoundCloud rapper.
“Just being a kid in your bedroom, I would just upload ideas to SoundCloud, and I was very naive… Being that DIY kid in your bedroom is scary, it’s depressing. I don’t know. I feel like the only thing you can do is work harder than everyone else. Don’t be lazy, ’cause there’s always going to be a kid working harder than you.”
