Isaiah Rashad and Steven Harrington Team Up for 'The Sun’s Tirade' Special Edition

Isaiah Rashad is finally giving his 2016 sophomore effort, The Sun’s Tirade, the physical treatment it deserves via a collaboration with Los Angeles artist Steven Harrington. This exclusive 2LP gatefold release, available through Complex, marks a rare tactile moment for an album that has spent years as a digital-only staple of the TDE catalog. Harrington’s psychedelic, palm-tree-heavy aesthetic provides a sharp visual counterpoint to Rashad’s hazy, introspective Chattanooga-via-California flow. The release comes in two distinct colorways: a 'Mello' yellow and a 'Swirl' variant, both housed in Harrington’s signature cartoon-surrealist packaging. For a project that defined the mid-2010s TDE era with its blend of jazz-rap and southern grit, this pressing feels less like a simple reissue and more like a long-overdue artifact for the fans who tracked Rashad’s five-year hiatus between this record and 2021’s The House Is Burning. Quantities are limited to a strictly exclusive drop on the Complex shop, making this a high-priority target for collectors of the label's physical history.
