It’s only been a month or so since Earl Sweatshirt has come back from his year-long disciplinary stay in Samoa, but he hasn’t wasted time on getting back into things.

First came a series of press interviews, then came his contribution to the Odd Future mixtape, Earl even appeared on stage with Flying Lotus at Coachella.

And now he’s set to get his very own record label, called ‘Tan Cressida’. The label will be an offshoot of Columbia, which is strange seeing as Odd Future’s own label is on Sony.

Nevertheless, things don’t seem tense between Earl and this crew as he’s already laying down plans for a collaborative LP with Tyler the Creator. Stay tuned for more news on this.

You can watch a recent segment regarding the hip-hop collective on Newsnight below, in which the BBC speculate how much records Odd Future can potentially actually sell.
