NEW YORK, NY (May 10, 2024) — Kickstarting another era with a bang, critically acclaimed multiplatinum Florida spitter Ski Mask The Slump God unleashes an incendiary and infectious new single and music video entitled “Headrush” out now via Victor Victor Worldwide/Republic Records. It also heralds the impending arrival of his anxiously awaited new album, 11th Dimension, coming soon!
 
On the track, a gritty distorted guitar riff sets the groove off, raging through the beat with moshpit-primed nu metal energy to spare. Ski Mask The Slump God sounds right at home over this apocalyptic bounce as his frenetic flow leaves the production in flames. Out of the ashes, he grins with next-level confidence and charisma, proceeding to christen himself, “An evil genius, got the world in the palm of my hand.” In the accompanying music video Ski’s unapologetic spirit shines amongst rare art collectibles and he roams through NIGO’s mansion in Japan.


 
This year, Ski Mask The Slump God ignited a renaissance with the stunning and striking “Shibuya. In less than a month, it has already posted up over 12 million cumulative streams and nearly 4 million YouTube views on the music video. Plus, it earned widespread acclaim. XXL named it one of “The 13 Best New Hip-Hop Songs This Week, and UPROXX attested, “He maintains his brash, rough delivery — making it feel that although he’s been away for a minute, it’s like he never left.” Meanwhile, HYPEBEAST praised it as a “bass-banging cut.
 
His Halloween banger “OOGA BOOGA!” landed like a hurricane in 2022. Thus far, it has gathered nearly 55 million Spotify streams in addition to earning critical acclaim. Applauded as “spooky” by The FADERLyrical Lemonade went on to rave, “From the moment that you press play and hear this groovy + upbeat instrumental, you’re instantly locked in,” going on to add, “Ski Mask has a history of doing damage over beats like this, and this release is no exception.”  
 
Get ready for a whole lot more music from Ski Mask The Slump God soon. It is now officially 11th Dimension season!

ABOUT SKI MASK THE SLUMP GOD:
Ski Mask The Slump God has broken boundaries, busted expectations, and blazed a trail of his own as a lyrical virtuoso, cinematic storyteller, and culture-shifting force of nature. As one of the architects of Florida’s 21st century hip-hop revolution, he persists as an uncompromising, unpredictable, and undeniable rap outlier. After a prolific hot streak of celebrated mixtapes, he catapulted to the forefront of the mainstream with his full-length debut album, Stokeley [Victor Victor Worldwide/Republic Records] in 2018. It captured #6 on the Billboard Top 200 and went gold. Thus far, he has unleashed a string of subversive anthems, including the double-platinum “Faucet Failure” and the platinum bangers—“Catch Me Outside, “Take A Step Back, “Nuketown, “Babywipe, and “Foot Fungus.” Beyond many now-legendary collaborations with the late XXXTentacion, he also joined forces with J. Cole’s DreamVille for the platinum “Costa Rica” and DJ SchemeDanny Towers, and Lil Yachty on a gold single, “How You Feel?” and the platinum single, “E-Er.” Along the way, he sold out countless headline shows, crisscrossed the country in arenas co-headlining with the $uicide Boy$ and the late Juice WRLD, and graced the bills of top festivals. 2021’s Sin City The Mixtape saw him firing on all cylinders. It bowed in the Top 20 of the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart and Top 40 of the Top 200 anchored by “The Matrix” and “Dr. Seuss. With billions of streams and praise from PitchforkHYPEBEASTComplex, and more to his name, Ski Mask The Slump God only continues to forge ahead, leaving everything behind him in flames. Enduring the loss of two of his best friends, he hasn’t put out another album in order to process grief, but he remained busy, nonetheless. The MC ignited Halloween 2022 with “OOGA BOOGA!,” hailed by The FADER as an “early-fall classic.” During 2023, he kept busy by lending his razor-sharp skills to everyone from Trippie Redd and SXMPRA to Danny Towers before lyrically taking no prisoners again on 2024’s “Fly Away”—the opener of Lyrical Lemonade’s blockbuster All Is Yellow. Now, he returns with his first solo single in two years, “Shibuya, kickstarting the next era of Ski Mask The Slump God
