It’s been three and a half years since Aesop Rock released None Shall Pass. While Aesop since produced an album for FELT, 2009’s Felt 3: A Tribute To Rosie Perez, the emcee has been relatively quiet on releasing new material. This morning it was announced that Aesop and present collaborator Kimya Dawson have announced a spring tour.
