Info for Everything's Strange Here

The project – mostly recorded during quarantine – is a personal exploration for G, highlighting his wide-ranging musical sensibilities with a mix of unexpected covers and original songs. The project comes alongside the music video for “Had Enough” as well as visualizers for “Lazarus” and “In The Middle.”

The announcement follows a series of releases from the project including “Free Porn Cheap Drugs,” praised by Alternative Press as “melodically-tinged indie rock… [with] soft acoustic guitars and dreamy atmospheric tones,” and “Nostalgia Cycle” which Hypebeast described as “a softer and more intimate sound… guitar-based single features Eazy showing off his vocal chops, somberly singing…”

G dives into new genres and sounds showcasing his vocals and even taking to the piano. A welcomed left turn from the sound he’s known for, the project highlights a lesser-heard side of Gerald as an artist and musician. He produced and engineered on the majority of the project himself, while also collaborating with Ambezza, Marshmello, Austin Ward, Cole MGN, Julia Lewis, Dakari, Christoph Andersson and a few other producers and friends. Creative Director Lauren Dunn took the project to the next level, weaving a story throughout slick visuals and strong imagery.

Since March, he's taken these compelling and unique times as an opportunity to experiment in the studio and work on his Everything's Strange Here project while simultaneously continuing work on his highly anticipated upcoming album These Things Happen Too.

Earlier this month, G-Eazy released a new version of his 2017 song “Love Is Gone” featuring Drew Love, which included a new verse from rising California rapper JAHMED. The track continues to prove more relevant than ever with G rapping through striking verses that evoke images of American discord, racism and police brutality, that continue to take place today.

Throughout the entire month of June, G-Eazy has been donating ALL profits from merch sales to MBK Alliance, Campaign Zero, and Color of Change and has called on all artists to join him in donating what they can. Additionally, the rapper will be donating 20,000 masks to the Bay Area in partnership with Genies and Bella Canvas. Lyft has also partnered through their LyftUp initiative to help execute the deliveries of the masks. 15,000 masks will support people on the frontlines of the Black Lives Matter protests and 5,000 masks will support essential workers for COVID-19. He's also the first of many global superstars to sign on in support of the Black Music Action Coalition (BMAC), which was started by his manager Jamil Davis and other top leading music executives.

G-Eazy

G-Eazy

With his slicked-back hair and leather jacket, G-Eazy was known as "the James Dean of rap" when he debuted in the late 2000s. Armed with bars that detailed hedonistic excess and conflicted inner turmoil, he steadily climbed the charts in the 2010s on the strength of his hit duet with Bebe Rexha, "Me, Myself & I," from his major-label debut, 2014's These Things Happen. He repeated that success in 2017 with third album The Beautiful & Damned, which paired him with Halsey on the platinum "Him & I," and A$AP Rocky and Cardi B on the Top Four hit "No Limit."

Born Gerald Earl Gillum in Oakland, California, G-Eazy launched his career while still in college at Loyola University in New Orleans, heading up a hip-hop crew named the Bay Boyz while dropping his solo debut, The Epidemic LP, in 2009. Two years later, his mixtape The Endless Summer landed with the hit redo of Dion's "Runaround Sue." In 2012 he released his second LP, Must Be Nice, hitting the road with Hoodie Allen and joining the Vans Warped Tour. In 2014 he returned with his first major-label release, These Things Happen (RCA). As his popularity grew in the following year, he embarked on an extensive international tour and recorded his fourth album. When It's Dark Out was released in late 2015 and included a hit duet with Bebe Rexha, "Me, Myself & I." Dark would go on to peak at number five on the Billboard 200 and top the R&B/Hip-Hop chart. In the summer of 2016, while on tour with Logic, YG, and Yo Gotti, Eazy appeared on Britney Spears' comeback single "Make Me," which entered the Top 20 of the Hot 100. "Some Kind of Drug," his single featuring Marc E. Bassy, arrived at the end of the year and would enter the singles charts in early 2017. At the beginning of the year, G-Eazy also teamed up with Carnage for the EP Step Brothers.

By mid-year, he released the single "No Limit," which featured A$AP Rocky and Cardi B. The multi-platinum track climbed into the Top Five of the Hot 100, becoming his highest-charting single to date. This was followed by a second platinum chart hit, "Him & I," which featured his then-girlfriend Halsey. Both tracks were included on his third studio album, The Beautiful & Damned, which was released in December 2017. The double-disc set peaked at number three on the Billboard 200. In 2018 Eazy teamed up with Yo Gotti and YBN Nahmir for the single "1942," which appeared on the Uncle Drew soundtrack. Eazy's 2019 output included the EP B-Sides, the single "West Coast" featuring Blueface, and a bevy of features on tracks by Chris Brown, Carnage, and T-Pain. He closed the year with a second EP, Scary Nights, which recruited Moneybagg Yo, French Montana, Miguel, and others.

In 2020, he found inspiration in quarantine during the COVID-19 pandemic, taking the opportunity to try new things and reflect. The results wound up on Everything's Strange Here, a drastic shift in style that set his rap braggadocio aside in favor of introspective indie alternative pop. Singing instead of rapping, he covered the Korgis and David Bowie, while also sampling Pixies. (David Jeffries, AMG)
