Yung Gleesh returns with ragged new single ‘Since When’

Washington DC’s Yung Gleesh is one of the city’s most undeniable talents, and he jumps right back into focus with this latest drop.

A taster of his forthcoming mixtape Cleansides Finest 3, which is set to appear on September 16, ‘Since When’ is skeletal and menacing – a far cry from the quirky club weirdness emerging from Atlanta right now.

The video – shot by Will Hoopes – shows a side of DC that’s far from the tourist-ridden streets of Pennsylvania Avenue, and relates to plenty of the themes Gleesh touched on when FACT’s US team caught up with him at this year’s SXSW.

He’s got a busy few months ahead, aside from the mixtape launch, Gleesh is heading to Reddit for an AMA with subreddit Hip Hop Heads on September 10 at 4:00pm ET, and if you’re in the Brooklyn area, he’s set to perform at this year’s Fools Gold Day Off on September 1.
