Mick Jenkins | A Murder of Crows

With A Murder of Crows, Mick Jenkins and British producer EMIL deliver an 11-track collaboration that feels dark, cinematic, and uncompromising.  Jenkins brings his signature lyricism—mixing introspection, social critique, and poetic imagery—while EMIL’s production provides moody backdrops rooted in jazz texture, subtle electronics, and a restrained but immersive atmosphere. 

From the opener “Dream Catchers”, where Jenkins reflects on fractured connections, to “Words I Should’ve Said”(featuring ENNY), the album moves through personal accountability, pressure, and quiet resolve.  Standout tracks like “Workers’ Comp” and “Pundits (YAPPERS)” sharpen the focus outward—critiquing entitlement and armchair voices—with precision and restraint.  The title Coco Gauff track is one of the more aggressive moments, combining dense wordplay with urgent energy.  The closing “Bigger Than Ever” ends on a note of quiet triumph, asserting growth and perspective after struggle. 

Released September 19, 2025 via EVEN and later on streaming platforms, A Murder of Crows marks a compelling new chapter in Jenkins’ discography—one driven by mature reflection, musical depth, and the power of stark truth.
