Earl Sweatshirt has announced the release date for his upcoming sixth album Live Laugh Love and revealed the cover art and track list.

Earl took to Instagram to post a snippet along with the release date, album art and a LeBron James meme of the NBA legend smiling through it all in disbelief of the life he’s currently living, which may explain the album title as Earl and his wife, comedian and actress Aida Osman, have recently welcomed a baby girl into their lives.


Osman posted maternity pics the couple took on her Instagram to coincide with the album announcement and included the caption that reads: “We never made it to a studio to take maternity photos but right before I got induced Thebe suggested we do self-timer in the backyard. It’s always perfect because it’s ours! Live Laugh Love everyone.”

The track list doesn’t have any features, but it does include a footnote acknowledging the producers: Theravada, Navy Blue, Black Noi$e, Child Actor and Earl himself.

Last week, according to Complex, the West Coast rapper held a listening party where he didn’t attend, but trotted out an imposter to perform some of his songs and those in attendance were given zines that included a long list of contributors that included names like actor Steven Yeun, singer Liv.e, his mother Cheryl Harris, The Alchemist, Sage Elsesser aka Navy Blue, BKTHERULA, Dave Chappelle, Donald Glover, Vince Staples, director Hiro Murai and his wife.

The last project Earl released was The Alchemist-produced Voir Dire in 2023.

Billboard Canadian Hot 100 & Billboard Canadian Albums Charts Undergo Methodology Changes for 2026

Below is an explainer on the charts’ new streaming weights.

Following the switch of the Billboard Canadian Albums chart to a new weighting methodology to match that of the United States-based Billboard 200, the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 songs chart has shifted to the updated paid to ad-supported 1:2.5 streaming ratio. This is effective with the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 chart dated Jan. 31, 2026

As previously reported, Billboard’s charts have added more weight to on-demand streaming to better reflect an increase in streaming revenue and changing consumer behaviors. As part of the change, paid/subscription on-demand streams continue to be weighted more favourably compared to ad-supported on-demand streams, with the ratio between the two tiers narrowing from 1:3 to 1:2.5 based on analysis of streaming revenue.
