LELO RELEASES MASTIFF : PINK TILES (DELUXE)
Detroit rising star Lelo has released Mastiff : Pink Tiles (Deluxe) alongside a new Lonewolf-directed video for “Dolla Dreams”. He expands May’s double EP from 12 songs to 19, adding four to the Mastiff side, among them the new “How It Be” and “Dolla Dreams”, and three to Pink Tiles, including the new “Fuck The Bag Up” and “OT”. On the Mastiff side, Lelo stays in his Detroit rap lane, and on Pink Tiles he pushes further into the Ghettotech-inspired half of his ever-evolving New Detroit sound. In the Lonewolf-directed music video, Lelo walks the streets with a masked woman and spits over a jazzy beat, with abstract projections behind him turning him to a dark silhouette –– joining a curated list of artists Lonewolf has directed videos for, which includes the likes of LUCKI and Brent Faiyaz. Lelo brings the new songs to Europe in December for a six-date headlining run.
Lelo posted his biggest streaming debut yet in March with “Monetize” (16M+ Streams) and put it on May’s Mastiff : Pink Tiles. Billboard named him its Up-and-Coming Hip-Hop Artist of the Month for June, a month he closed with the video single “Big Dipper”, and he headlined 13 dates on the Mastiff : Pink Tiles Tour this summer. In September he shared “Like Sunday” and “Grave Shift”, both now on the Mastiff side, then “Last Time”, which closes out Pink Tiles. On December 2nd, Lelo opens his European run at Voodoo in Warsaw, closing December 10th at Mello in Vilnius.
