Embers To Ashes

Description

Everlast makes his big return with *Embers to Ashes*, his eighth album and first in eight years. This raw and introspective collection captures a life shaped by hard-learned lessons, unexpected turns, and moments of triumph and loss. Produced by Yelawolf, mixed by Chris Lord-Alge, and recorded in Nashville with contributions from lyricist David Ray (Jelly Roll, Teddy Swims), this 2024 release presents him at his most candid and emotionally direct. Everlast is a familiar figure. It's not just that he recorded one of hip-hop's biggest hits in 1992 with "Jump Around" as part of House of Pain, nor that he created the empathy anthem "What It's Like" from his triple-platinum album *Whitey Ford Sings the Blues*. It's also not the GRAMMY nominations or his win with Santana. It's the way he redefined the relationship between rap, blues, and rock, and the humanity he has always brought to that sound. For over three decades, he has documented life as he has lived it—from humble highs to devastating lows—and with *Embers to Ashes*, that perspective resonates more deeply than ever. With a new album on the horizon, GRAMMY-winning artist Everlast returns with his powerful new single, "Stones." This track delves deep into themes of guilt and regret, tracing an emotional arc from self-deprecation to personal healing, and ultimately, to forgiveness. Raw, reflective, and deeply personal, "Stones" offers a first glimpse into this new chapter, a bold step forward that balances vulnerability and resilience. This song is a new example of how Everlast skillfully weaves the thread that connects all lives through the shared realities that each of us experiences, no matter who we are or where we come from.
