Vince Staples maneuvers through the world in a way that is unique to him. He’s quiet, yet when he does speak, the “War Ready” rapper is loud.
For instance, during a press run for his new album, Big Fish Theory — released today (June 23) — the Long Beach, Cali’ rapper told Trevor Noah that he enjoys trolling white people.
With that, Staples’ sophomore effort is here for our digestion. The 12-track project features Ty Dolla $ign and Kendrick Lamar and producers Sekoff, Brady, GTA, Sophie and more.
In a recent Tweet, the Def Jam artist said this his album is high art and features do not increase sales.
THEY WANNA KNOW THE FEATURES SAID ITS GONNA HELP THE SALES!!! NIGGAS KNOW THE BIG FISH NOT WORRIED BOUT SALES HE MAKING THAT HIGH ART.

Also, the 23-year-old rapper released the visuals to his Ty-Dolla $ign-assisted “Rain Come Down.”
Big Fish Theory is a follow-up to Staples’ 2015 debut album Summertime ’06.
