The album follows their critically acclaimed 2018 album Elephants On Acid which Sen Dog said is a return to their roots.
“We were proud hip-hoppers back in the day and we’ve gone through it all. We’re proud to be part of the hip-hop industry. Doing a straight hip-hop joint was the way to go,” he said.
The album announcement also marks the release of another brand-new track from the group, titled ‘Bye Bye’.
Michigan-born rapper Dizzy Wright features on the track who delivers a standout verse about the cost of violence.
B-Real said “I think with this song, it’s a statement where – in a roundabout way – we speak to the politics of today.
“That we’re being lulled into this dreamworld. To try to blind us from the separation that the politicians and government create.
“Trying to put us to sleep and while we’re in this sleep state of unawareness they do whatever they want.”
Following the release of earlier tracks ‘Champion Sound’ and ‘Open Ya Mind’ in 2021, Bye Bye’ continues to elevate the Grammy nominated group’s distinctly powerful dual-vocal dynamic to new heights, with Dizzy Wright adding another element to the sound.
Back In Black sees them enter an incredible fourth decade of releases, shining a spotlight on the reason they’re consistently hailed as one of the greatest hip-hop acts of all time.
