Danny Brown is still red hot on new song “Winter”

The track was released as a SoundCloud exclusive.

August 22, 2022

Since the release of 2019's uknowwhatimsayin, Danny Brown has entered internet mogul mode. He started a podcast called The Danny Brown Show, became a Twitch streamer, and, more significantly, helped steer his label Bruiser Brigade into a genuine force in hip-hop with excellent releases from Zelooperz and Bruiser Wolf. Brown's return to music has come in fits and starts – a one-off single on a Bruiser Brigade compilation here, a BROCKHAMPTON feature there – and while we still don't have a definitive return set, today there's a new Danny Brown song called "Winter." The track, produced by Brown himself, rides a ghostly sample and thundering 808s as Brown keeps his flow close in pace and tone to a string of ignited firecrackers. It's a welcome reminder that, despite a hiatus, there's still no artist filling the Danny Brown-shaped void in hip-hop.
