According to Alternative Intervention Models, Earl Sweatshirt is "on his way home". Read a little of their statement below:

Malo! Why would nine artist volunteers from Alternative Intervention Models travel over 4,771 miles halfway across the world to the remote South Pacific island of Samoa?

Two words: Earl Sweatshirt.

Yes indeed, the allegedly lost and arguably most gifted young lyrical prodigy (known for over 10 million YouTube views before age 18), is on his way back home to Los Angeles where he will finish high school before launching the next phase of his widely anticipated rap career -- under the wizened guidance of Leila Steinberg, artistic mentor who famously first guided music and screen icon, Tupac Shakur.

We hear these rumors all the time. Lets hope this one is true.

Remember when Complex Magazine found Earl Sweatshirt somewhere in Samoa? Well since then, the Odd Future MC cooperated in an exclusive interview with The New Yorker. Him, along with his parents, say a few things but most importantly:

“Please listen: I am not being held against my will… Initially I was really pleased that all these people claimed that they wanted me released because I thought that translated into “they care.” So time progresses and the fan base gets bigger and the “Free Earl” chants get louder but now with the “Free Earl” chants come a barely indirect “Fuck Earl’s Mom” and in the blink of an eye my worry changes from “will there still be this hype when I get back” to “Oh shit I just inspired a widespread movement of people who are dedicated to the downfall of my mom… The only thing I need as of right now is space. I’ve still got work to do and don’t need the additional stress of fearing for my family’s physical well-being. Space means no more ‘Free Earl.'I miss home. I don’t have any definite date though. Even if I did I don’t know if I’d tell you. You’ll hear from me without a doubt when I’m ready."

Remember how I didn't understand Odd Future so it took me a while to listen to Frank Ocean? Same situation. Here's Earl Sweatshirt. I've believe he's the youngest (and missing) member of OFWGKTA at 17 but his wordplay is up there. I been watching his video for Earl (from his 2010 project, EARL) all week. Its an odd video but oddly enough, I like it. Long story short, here's some old unreleased music from dude.
