Young Fathers Announce New Album, Stream “Rain Or Shine”

February 3rd, 2015

Scottish experimental hip-hop group Young Fathers received critical acclaim for last year’s Dead, an eleven-track LP that won the trio the 2014 Mercury Prize. To follow up in 2015, they’ve announced the release of their newest effort, White Men Are Black Men Too, releasing April 7 on Big Dada, and a tour in April.

Following the announcement, Young Fathers streamed a track from White Men, titled “Rain Or Shine,” which you can stream while you check out if the group are headed your way below. “Rain Or Shine” is a poppy, energetic taste of what’s to come with an infectious backing track, and it’s safe to say fans of Dead will be pleased with the new song.
