Shabazz Palaces' eighth album as Sub Pop's LOSER edition on metallic silver vinyl. Out October 23, 2026.
Sub Pop's LOSER edition on metallic silver vinyl. It's Shabazz Palaces' eighth studio album, the latest from Ishmael Butler, the former Butterfly of Digable Planets and Sub Pop's first hip-hop signing.
Ishmael Butler has been bending hip-hop out of shape since his Digable Planets days, and Shabazz Palaces, his Seattle project since 2009, is where he does it most freely. Working as Palaceer Lazaro, usually with longtime collaborator Erik Blood, he mixes rap with electronic production, jazz, funk and a good deal of science fiction.
It's a Style Sport opens with "Ahh World (I Won the Alpha Bet)" and moves through "Jheri Curl Jump", "Deadstock Dude" and "Money Can't Save Your Mind" before landing on "From One Future to Another". Sub Pop counts it as the eighth studio album, after Black Up, Lese Majesty, the two Quazarz records and The Don of Diamond Dreams. The titles alone suggest a man having a very good time with a thesaurus.
