Platinum selling recording artist and producer Russ announces the release of his sophomore album, ZOO, available globally on September 7, 2018 via Columbia Records and Sony Music Entertainment Australia.
Adding to an already banner year for the rapper, the project is the follow up to his RIAA Certified platinum debut album, There's Really A Wolf. Collaborating with long-time friend and artist KidSuper for the cover art, Zoo is available for pre-order here. Russ has also released The Flute Song, the first track off the album. Produced by Scott Storch 'The Flute Song' can be heard here.
As one of the few artists to go Platinum with a debut album, Russ's breakout album features two double-Platinum songs and five Gold songs. The diverse 20-track album, served as the perfect showcase for his DIY approach having produced, mixed, mastered, engineered and written exclusively by Russ himself, and features both of his Billboard Hot 100-charting tracks What They Want and Losin Control.
The popularity of the album helped Russ surpass 1.1 billion audio streams in the U.S. in 2017, making him one of Nielsen Music's 30 most streamed artists of the year. His strong vision and self-belief has resulted in six sold out tours, over 676 million YouTube views, 10 million monthly listeners on Spotify, and over 2 billion plays of his vast catalog, all sung word for word by his dedicated fan base at sold-out shows across the globe.
