All I can say is "Whoa." 

"Burgundy," the latest leak from Earl Sweatshirt's highly anticipated new album Doris, is the same sort of introspective, stomach-churning lyrical exercise we've come to expect from the Odd Future member- with one exception. Sweatshirt has cast aside the menacing rumble of beats on songs like "Hive" for a slow, spacey funk line courtesy of a resurgent Pharrell. 

Yes, that Pharrell. 

"Burgundy" calls out the recent trend of sad rap at the beginning by bashing spitters who talk on how depressed they are, before Earl lays his own problems on listeners. Over Pharrell's slowcore Earth, Wind & Fire beat (and Rev X shouting "Cut that bitch off!"), it sounds like Sweatshirt is claiming his territory.

Back off,Lil' Pain. Earl was here first.

Doris drops 8/20.
