Earl Sweatshirt - Live Laugh Love [Indie, Orange & Black LP]

Released in 2025 through Tan Cressida Records and Warner Records, Live Laugh Love is Earl Sweatshirt's fifth studio album. The indie exclusive edition on orange and black crush vinyl features an alternate cover art design. Initially named satirically, the album title represents Earl's growth as both an artist and human being, reflecting his new role as a father and married man. Production is primarily handled by Theravada, with additional contributions by Black Noise, Child Actor, Navy Blue, and Earl himself.

The 11-track album features no features (guest appearances), keeping the focus on Earl's unconventional flow and dense wordplay. "CRISCO," "exhaust," and "WELL DONE!" stand as key tracks, with music videos released for each. "INFATUATION" mixes metaphors like recipes, serving up reconstructed wordplay seasoned with heady poetry. "Live" cautiously raises the album's oft-revisited trope of dying on a hill before spiraling downwards with a beat-flip to match the mood. The production throughout maintains Earl's signature avant-garde approach, with hazy psychedelic elements and soul samples that melt and mutate beneath his laid-back delivery. Tracks like "gsw vs sac" and "TOURMALINE" demonstrate his evolution from the paranoid intensity of earlier work toward something more reflective and grounded.

Pressed on 140g orange and black crush colored vinyl, the indie exclusive features alternate cover art that sets it apart from the standard edition. The campaign is rooted in themes of wellness, growth, and choosing joy while staying grounded in truth. The limited edition status and unique visual treatment make it a desirable pressing for those who have followed Earl's journey from Odd Future prodigy to one of underground hip-hop's most respected voices.
