Sho Baraka To Tell "The Narrative" On Humble Beast Debut Album

Humble Beast’s newest signee, Sho Baraka, announced his debut album on the label, The Narrative, yesterday (October 7).

The Los Angeles-bred MC is set to drop the 14-track project October 21. Sho enlists Lecrae, fellow Humble Beast artist Jackie Hill Perry and more to tell the story of Black America in a timeline format, complete with Kanye West tribute.

Sho Baraka was a founding member of Reach Records before leaving and independently releasing his Talented Xth LP in 2013.

He is set to go on travel with labelmate Propaganda on the Spotlight Tour this fall as the duo explores the role of the church in facing social justice issues. Each stop will feature music from Sho’s new project.
