Back in 2018, Swedish artist Yung Lean shared his mixtape Poison Ivy, a followup to 2017's full-length Strangers. On Friday (May 15), Yung Lean returned his latest project Starz, a 16-track offering that's said to be connected to his rock side project, Jonatan Leandoer127. He's worked with artists like Travis Scott and Frank Ocean in the past, but on Starz he stands alone aside from his solo feature from Ariel Pink on the title track.

Yung Lean has garnered worldwide attention and millions of fans who can't get enough of his sullen, and often forlorn exterior. Of Starz, Yung Lean told Kaleidoscope magazine that this is his “best work yet” adding, "It’s like The Smiths, like Gorillaz. It is big, and it is beautiful.” Stream Starz and let us know what you think.
