Earl Sweatshirt, one of the most elusive members of the controversial OFWGKTA rap collective has announced the title for his new album and dropped the video to accompany his most recent song release "Chum."

Earl was infamously off the radar for a long time while the rest of Odd Future, especially members Tyler the Creator and Frank Ocean, blasted onto the mainstream hip-hop/R&B scene. Earl returned to the internet world earlier this year and released the track "Home" after hitting 50,000 Twitter followers.

He stuck to Twitter to announce both details about the new video and his upcoming album.

This albums called Doris.
