Yung Lean comes through with another single.

It's crazy to think that Yung Lean dropped his first mixtape in 2013. Since then, he's already dropped two albums, an EP and another mixtape. While he may not carry the same level of hype as he did prior to his debut album, he's still been consistently dropping music and feeding his fans what they've wanted from him. He just dropped his mixtape, Frost God, at the tail end of 2016. Recently, he revealed that his upcoming album, Strangers is due out on November 10th. With that, he shares another single off of the project, "Hunting My Own Skin."

"Hunting In My Own Skin" keeps in vein of what we're familiar with from Yung Lean. It's experimental, it's cloudy, it's laced in auto-tune. The song features Lean flexing his melodies over some dreamy production. The hook has a Future-feel to it at some points, mainly from the little ad-libs he adds here and there. Overall, it's a solid effort from Lean and is definitely a nice little glimpse as to what to expect from his upcoming project.

Earlier in the month, he announced he'd be dropping a new album along with the dates for his upcoming "Winter Tour". Shortly after that, he released the single "Red Bottom Sky." Now, he's revealed the track list for the album. The fourteen song tracklist doesn't appear to have any guest appearances on it. Stranger is available for pre-order and will drop through Year0001.

Quotable Lyrics
Sitting on the field, snakes through the money tracks
Breaking in and entering, bitch we popping tags
Keep the fire burning off a blunt like candle wax
Burning down your money 'til it ain't nothing to stacks
