Zelooperz has announced his new album ‘Pin Breakers,’ set to release on November 13 via Earl Sweatshirt’s Tan Cressida label. The drop will be his first on the label, following a run on the ‘Live Laugh Love’ tour with Earl in 2025. The lead single “Beautician” is out now. Danny Brown, who co-founded the Detroit hip-hop collective Bruiser Brigade with Zelooperz, is the sole feature on the project. The album was produced entirely by Black Noi$e. The two recorded it daily at Detroit’s Bruiser House in 2017, completed it in 2019, and then left it buried on a discarded hard drive for years before it was rediscovered. Now we finally get to hear it. The title came from a bowling trip where @ZelooperZ threw a ball hard enough to dislocate his shoulder, which forced him to take six months off. According to a press release, the album plays on both “the physical act of breaking pins and the freedom of breaking the pen, allowing ideas to flow without restriction.” “You can’t appreciate the good days without the pain from the bad ones,” he shared.
