Earl is the debut mixtape by Odd Future member Earl Sweatshirt. It was released as a free digital download on March 31, 2010, on the Odd Future website.
Earl started recording for “Earl” when he was only 15 years old. The mixtape received critical acclaim upon its release, and helped propel Earl into the Odd Future spotlight.
The mixtape has many themes of murder, violence, and sexual harassment in it. The album cover depicts a woman with her face twisted, which is symbolic of Earl’s mind during the making of this project. This led to a series of bad decisions on Earl’s part, and ultimately led to his mother sending him to boarding school in Samoa.
