The TV On The Radio collaboration previews an album examining addiction, relationships and male loneliness.
Soul Glo have released ‘Ppl Worried’, bringing TV On The Radio’s Tunde Adebimpe into the Philadelphia hardcore band’s next album campaign.
The track is the second preview of NA I’M GON GRAB ALLAT, due on 15 January 2027 through Epitaph Records. The band’s official album listing credits Adebimpe on the song, which follows the earlier single ‘February Theory’.
As Consequence reports, Pierce Jordan takes the first verse and Adebimpe the second, with the pair also sharing a call-and-response section. A lyric video accompanies the release.
The song addresses addiction and the strain it places on relationships. That theme runs into a wider concern on the album: how men treat the people who care about them.
In an earlier album statement reproduced by BroadwayWorld in September, Jordan described the record as “largely about failures, mine and others, in my relationships with different men in my life”. The statement places resentment, drug abuse and anxieties around relationships alongside an examination of male loneliness.
Adebimpe is part of a wider group of contributors. The published album credits also list Tati Salazar, Eugene Robinson, Mannequin Pussy’s Colins “Bear” Regisford, Bbymutha and MIKE. That spread brings voices from hardcore, experimental rock and hip-hop into Soul Glo’s orbit. Jordan has made guest appearances of his own, joining Playytime’s Obioma Ugonna on Zulu’s ‘Where I’m From’ in 2023.
Those connections make sense for a band whose sound already moves between several worlds. Epitaph’s artist profile describes a mixture of hardcore punk, screamo, noise and hip-hop, with Jordan’s lyrics confronting racism, trauma and survival.
The new album follows 2022’s Diaspora Problems. Its official listing names Philadelphia’s Foto Club as the recording location, with GG Guerra handling production and engineering, Evan Bernard assisting and Steve Evetts mixing.
‘Ppl Worried’ and ‘February Theory’ are available now, with the complete record set to follow in January. For listeners coming in through Adebimpe, there are two tracks ready to explore before the rest of the guest list comes into focus.
