Rapper, songwriter, producer and entrepreneur
YelaWolf announced his album, Ghetto Cowboy, will be released exclusively on his
YouTube Channel Halloween night, available everywhere at midnight November 1. His sixth studio album will be the first project to be released through his own independent label
Slumerican Records, an extension of his lifestyle and culture brand with retail headquarters based in Nashville, TN. Ghetto Cowboy is available to
pre-order now.
“This Ghetto Cowboy album has been the most gratifying to me as an artist being that it’s my first indie release on my own label. I have no one to answer to and that can be a scary responsibility. After Love Story, Trial By Fire and then Trunk Muzik 3, I feel like I got a well-rounded project that speaks to all the fans; hip hop, rock’n’roll, and southern fans alike. I ain’t reinventing the wheel here, just doing what I love to do, doing what I think is dope and original. I never want to stop challenging the genre or the listener or become complacent or settled cause that’s boring as f_<# to me and the fans. G.C. is unapologetic, brutally honest and at times completely vulnerable. I leave it all out there. Take it or leave it.“ – YelaWolf
To celebrate the announce, Wolf just dropped another
video for the lead track “Unnatural Born Killer,”in addition to the
official released in August. Meanwhile, the album will be supported with the 28-date GHETTO COWBOY TOUR kicking off next week on October 9 in Grand Junction, CO, before wrapping November 24 in Louisville, KY. The tour will also make stops in Los Angeles on October 22, Toronto on November 7, New York City on November 12, and Chicago on November 19.
Wolf recently hosted his 3rd Annual Devil’s Pass Bike Run, held for the first time in Texas, where he rode with fans from city to city before performing each night. The Alabama native also held bottle signings across the state for his award-winning Creek Water Whiskey to celebrate its release in Texas.
