As indicated by B.o.B’s early Thursday (May 11) Twitter post, his new album Ether was delivered right on time. “ETHER drops @ midnight!!! #ETHER,” he captioned a photo of the album art.
Previously released singles from the 12-track project included “4 Lit” featuring Ty Dolla $ign and T.I., but the album also has several other high-profile guest spots such as Young Thug, Big K.R.I.T., CeeLo Green, Usher and Lil Wayne.

Marking his first album since 2013’s Underground Luxury, B.o.B is making his return with the announcement of his forthcoming album, ETHER, which is expected to arrive on May 12. The Decatur, Georgia artist, born Bobby Ray Simmons, Jr., revealed the cover art via his Instagram account early Wednesday (April 5) and also dropped the first single “4 Lit” featuring Ty Dolla $ign and T.I.
The project serves as his inaugural independent album since his split with Grand Hustle/Atlantic Records. B.o.B was with the label for a decade and released albums such as his 2010 debut B.o.B Presents: The Adventures of Bobby Ray, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and 2012’s Strange Clouds.

When did Bobby Ray become infatuated with elephants?
Bob proves that anyone can make it in music, no matter how retarded and shit at music you are
He shoulda named it “Takeover”. Now he’s gonna flop and be broke like Nas.
says someone who never left their hood and/or never understood what a musicians Networth can be. Read a book b
Ask Russell Simmons
At least when this releases, he won’t get emotional over it then release a really bad album called “Super Ugly”, then wait another year to release an album called the “Blueprint 2”, because he was still emotional over Ether even though he said in “Takeover” that was the only salvo he needed to win.
You can’t have mediocre songs and bars on an album called Ether…just saying…He’s going to have to bring it.
don’t worry, he won’t lol
RUSHMORE – Cannabisativa
Dropping 4-20-17
Way better then some washed up Boner Thugs album
Dont know what y’all smoking on all his lps have been on point dude got mad skills on the Mic can’t wait to see if he brings it again one of the few southern mcs that actually talk about something positive in there rhymes
His 3 albums were pretty good.
Then he kinda went flat earth left….
Hope he brings his A game once again.
Dude has talent.
B.o.B usually has pretty good albums, but I don’t think it was a good idea to name the album Ether.
That gotta be the shittiest cover of all time.
TRASHHHH. fuck biters, i don’t care who it is. this is an unspoken heard. Nas even dissed Jay for using The Blueprint which KRS One had used years before. Obviously for shock value but it’s All around wack. Plus that’s a weak ass cover lol i sound like a hater. but yes, i hate biters. go Bite Mike Ock!!!
The Ether thing seems whack, but if this album is worth anything at all we won’t remember it for being named after the recent diss track.
The recent track was called “Shether”
I think shankhole is a bit of a noob to hip hop. I was devastated reading that comment…like pause
THIS FOOL’S CAREER IS AS FLAT AS THE EARTH HE LIVES IN!!!! LOL!!!! SHOULD’VE STUCK WITH POP OVER RAP!!!! DUMMY!!!!
The elephant’s wearing a gas mask because the album is gonna be a load of elephant shit.
Yeah he used to be good, then he went pop and then after he became irrelevant he came up with stupid bullshit conspiracy theories just for the sake of attention. Bet this albums full of those.
B.o.B got talent, but he’s been losing me over the past few years. I fuck with his first two albums, Underground Luxury was kinda ehh. Hope he can bounce back with the new one.
i hope this album is as weird and insane as he is. if there’s not a flat earth track on here i am going to wipe my ass with it and ruin my horrid ass hole.
One rapper who was good but now is as weird as fxck!! Just from the album cover art, its weird! LOL!
He might be the most overrated rapper of this generation. his albums have one or two decent songs, the rest are fillers.
How do you come from making a conscious album like AIR to this elephant dung!!.. man he titled the album Ether and all am hearing are trap ish..should have listened to his fans on fan mail haha!
no genre!
Who the fuck came up with that headline? Makes it sound like he dropped an entire album dissing The Game, the actual rapper
Isn’t this the same rapper that got owned by Neil DeGrasse Tyson for saying the world is flat ?
“On the game” lol yo, this site really went to shit
Yeah it’s crazy.
lol this album is terrible, which is a first for this guy.
Lil’ Wayne on that ET song!!! FUEGO!!!
This is the Wayne we all like!
He dropped 2 albums since Underground Luxury…..#Decatur #StandUp
