The Pharrell-produced album, the duo’s first in 16 years, is out July 11
Clipse’s long-awaited fourth studio album, Let God Sort Em Out, is coming on July 11. The Virginia duo of brothers Malice and Pusha T announced the project on Instagram, ending the long wait for fans who’ve been awaiting a follow-up to their 2009 Til The Casket Drops album. Let God Sort Em Out is entirely produced by Pharrell Williams, who crafted the group’s previous three albums. While Clipse signed to Def Jam for the album last year, it’s now being distributed and marketed by Roc Nation. The album cover is designed by artist and designer KAWS, who also designed the art for Clipse’s last project.
LP, CD, and Digital Pre-Orders (as well as KAWS-designed merch) for the album are available at LetGodSortEmOut.com
The release date reveal comes days after announcing that the project’s lead single, “Ace Trumpets,” would be released tonight at midnight. Let God Sort Em Out has been speculated about since the duo announced the project last June, and gave Rolling Stone in-depth details about the project, which Pusha T has called a “masterpiece.”

While the group had been on pause since 2010, rumors of a new album had spread since Malice, who changed his name to No Malice in 2013 then changed it back for this album, rapped “I might whisper in his ear, ‘Bury all of them’/Light another tiki torch and carry it again” on “I Pray For You.” The track is from Pusha T’s 2022 It’s Almost Dry album. Malice told Rolling Stone that after temporarily ending Clipse in 2010, he felt okay to reprise the group after his father told him he was being “too hard on [himself]” just days before his death. Malice rapped about the moment on “Birds Don’t Sing,” a eulogy to his and Pusha’s parents, which debuted at Paris Fashion Week 2024. (The brothers’s mother passed in November of 2021.)
Since last summer, speculation and anticipation have risen for the album, which Push has repeatedly said was waiting on a particular verse from an artist to be completed. Fan speculation has centered on Kendrick Lamar or Jay-Z being the mystery man. Chatter about the latter artist being the guest intensified when the Clipse uploaded a photo of themselves at the Roc Nation office earlier this week.
