Vince Staples Drops His Last Def Jam Album ‘Dark Times’

Vince Staples has officially announced his eighth studio album, *Dark Times*. The Long Beach artist confirmed on social media that this will be his last release with Def Jam, set to drop on Friday, May 24. In his Instagram post, Staples reflected on his journey with the label, stating, “Eleven years ago, a young, uncertain version of myself was given an opportunity with Def Jam Recordings. I released my first project under their banner, *Shyne Coldchain Vol 2*, a year later. I was unsure of what to expect from the world of music, but deeply aware of what I needed: a change in my surroundings and a clear understanding of self. Ten years and seven projects later, I’ve found that clarity. Now, I share with you my final Def Jam release, *Dark Times*. 5.24.24.”

Along with the album announcement, Staples released the lead single, “Shame on the Devil.” The track, which runs for about three-and-a-half minutes, features production from Joe Harrison, Michael Uzowuru, Mino, Tyler Page, and Staples himself. The song showcases Staples’ smooth flow over a mellow beat with drums and warm guitars.
