Mura Masa's returned with his official follow-up to 2020's R.Y.C. Earlier today, Mura Masa shared his new project, Demon Time, an 11-song opus that dives into hyperpop and early 2000s nostalgia. The effort boasts appearances from Lil Uzi Vert, BAYLI, Skillibeng, Pa Salieu, Channel Tres, Shygirl, PinkPantherss, slowthai and more.

During a conversation with Consequence Of Sound, he explained how the early 2000s inspired the project unintentionally.

"I think the kind of late ’90s and early 2000s is really interesting, because I think back then it was still possible to imagine a really futuristic idea of what was going to happen in a positive way. But now, it’s like, ‘Oh, Mark Zuckerberg says that you can go to Target in the Metaverse and that’s supposed to be interesting’ or like, climate change being the biggest human catastrophe of all time — that’s the future," he said.

Check the project out below.
