BROCKHAMPTON is postponing the release of their final album to 2022.
Kevin Abstract and Henock “HK” Sileshi both took to Twitter to confirm the news shortly after the former announced that the group is looking for new members. “our next and final album as brockhampton has been pushed back and will not be released until next year,” Abstract wrote in a separate tweet, while HK gave a possible explanation to the delay: “pushing the album back to see how these new members we’re scouting make it thru tryouts.”
Abstract revealed in April that BROCKHAMPTON is set to release two albums this year — the first being ROADRUNNER: NEW LIGHT, NEW MACHINE — and that “these will be our last.” He added in May, “we all love each other and we wanna continue making the best music we can everybody just getting a lil older and got a lot to say outside of group projects. we’ve dedicated the last ten years of our lives to making music together this next project we’re just doing what’s rite.”
Stay tuned for more info on the final BROCKHAMPTON record.
