DMV-by-way-of-Sacramento rapper Camden Malik has released his new album, 40 Acres, via 10k Global. Executive produced by MIKE and SURF GANG’s Eliproperr, the 11-track project brings together the distinctive regional rap sounds of Sacramento and New York City.
Having grown up between the two coasts, Malik draws on both musical traditions while exploring survival, personal sacrifice, and his ambitions as an artist. Recorded across New York, Chicago, Baltimore, and Earl Sweatshirt’s Los Angeles studio, the album features appearances from Lerado Khalil, Niontay, Cletus Strap, and Rockitneedspace.
A longtime member of MIKE’s creative circle and a high school friend of the rapper, Malik has previously collaborated with Vic Spencer and GRIMM Doza, while earning recognition from Pitchfork for his track “Wit My Hands.”
Led by singles “What U On” and “Immediately,” 40 Acres follows September’s collaborative project with Panamera P, You Can’t Land A Plane Anywhere, continuing a productive year for the emerging rapper.
