Aesop Rock Unleashes Cerebral Barrage On New Single “Send Help”

Aesop Rock continues to prove why he’s in a lyrical league of his own with “Send Help,” the second single from his upcoming album Black Hole Superette, due out later this month. Known for his dense wordplay and masterful rhyme structures, Aesop doesn’t hold back here—delivering a layered, cerebral flow that demands multiple listens to fully unpack. Despite the title, he’s not calling for assistance—he’s putting rappers on notice. “Send Help” plays like a lyrical gauntlet, with Aesop weaving through abstract concepts, vivid imagery, and rhythmic complexity like only he can. The production matches his intensity, serving up a moody, off-kilter backdrop that lets every bar land with precision. Fans of his past work will feel right at home, while newcomers are in for a crash course in technical rap wizardry. “Send Help” sets the tone for what looks to be another deeply thematic and sonically adventurous project from one of underground hip-hop’s most revered figures.
