Angel released the image in a post saying, “I really don’t feel like waiting anymore…here’s the Dirty Gold album artwork. #sorryguysatmylabel”
2. A lyric video of “A Tribe Called Red,” one of the tracks on the album…
3. …and an alternate cut on Soundcloud. (The sound is richer and she gives an intro touching on racial identity in her music.)

On Twitter, Angel said, “You guys don’t know how desperate I am for you all to have this album. I’ve been sitting on these songs for six months now and am finally tired of waiting. Patience is a virtue….until it isn’t, I suppose. Thanks for preordering it. Xxxx.”
Are you listening to Angel on Soundcloud over and over like I am? Are you a puddle on the floor yet? How about now?
Goodness, March seems like such a long time away.
Yes, an album date! I’m so excited for this – got caught up in Angel Haze after hearing her gorgeous version of “Same Love.” Thanks for the update!
March seems soooo far awayyy! I need this in mah life right meow!
ANGEL HAZE I LOVE U
Here’s to hoping I’ll have disposable income by March.
I love her and this track is sick. If I get iTunes money for Christmas I will somehow save some till March to buy this album.
Almost fell out of chair squealing in excitement just. Everyone. I AM SO EXCITED. I have been waiting so long (okay not that long not like F.L.A.G. levels of long but still).
It just got EVEN BETTER. She’s dropped the entire album on Soundcloud and stuck up all the middle fingers to her record label.

Dayum. Scratch that. Typically, as soon as I posted the album got taken down. But for those 15 minutes when all the songs were there, it was AMAZING and I don’t want to wait for 3+ months to hear it again. :(
Can’t wait! :D
