{"product_id":"isaiah-rashad-its-been-awful-2lp","title":"Isaiah Rashad - IT'S BEEN AWFUL [2LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eIsaiah Rashad ends a five-year wait with IT'S BEEN AWFUL, a hazy, soul-soaked third album that arrives here as a 2LP set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2026, it is his first full-length since The House Is Burning in 2021, and talk of a new record had circulated for years before he finally announced it. Rashad has pointed to Prince and OutKast's Stankonia and The Love Below as touchstones, and that spirit of genre-blurring Southern funk runs right through it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoy in Red reunites him with longtime TDE labelmate SZA, their chemistry as easy as ever, while Cameras pulls Dominic Fike into his woozy orbit. Ain't Givin' Up builds on a Khruangbin sample, and 719 Freestyle closes the album with a loose, unguarded flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross 16 tracks, Rashad's drowsy, melodic delivery glides over warm bass and slow-rolling drums, with producers including Kal Banx, Jansport J and Julian Sintonia shaping a sound that feels both laid-back and quietly intense.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCritics welcomed it as one of the strongest records of his career, and on vinyl its unhurried pacing makes for a deeply rewarding front-to-back listen. Put it on late, let it play through, and the album's title starts to sound more like a wry joke than a complaint.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67761159045410,"sku":"093624858096","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/2080\/8994\/files\/Isaiah_Rashad-ITS_BEEN_AWFUL_2LP.jpg?v=1794306039","url":"https:\/\/soulfulvinyl.com\/products\/isaiah-rashad-its-been-awful-2lp","provider":"Soulful Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
