Bryson Tiller announces “The Vices” album

Bryson Tiller is entering a new era—and doing it on his terms. On August 8, the multi-talented singer and rapper will release The Vices, the first installment of his upcoming double album titled Solace & The Vices. Dropping via Trapsoul/RCA Records, this project sets the stage for one of the boldest artistic moves of his career.

Known for his genre-blending style, Tiller is now embracing duality like never before. While The Vices leans heavily into high-octane energy and rap-driven delivery, its counterpart Solace—coming later this year—will explore introspection and emotional depth.

For Tiller fans, this two-part rollout offers the best of both worlds: raw expression and refined reflection.

A Gritty Soundtrack: Inside ‘The Vices’

Tiller’s The Vices marks a major pivot toward the grittier, more impulsive side of his artistry. This project brings his rap instincts to the forefront, with a production lineup stacked with industry heavyweights, including:

  • Charlie Heat (Kanye West, Denzel Curry)
  • Teddy Walton (Kendrick Lamar, Bryson Tiller, GoldLink)
  • Hitmaka (Big Sean, Tinashe, Ty Dolla $ign)
  • Gravez (6lack, Mick Jenkins)

Together, they help create a soundscape that matches Tiller’s headspace: confident, unfiltered, and hungry.

This release won’t shy away from experimentation. Expect booming 808s, moody synths, and a lyrical delivery that veers further into hip-hop territory, marking one of Tiller’s most assertive projects to date.

Solace: The Emotional Counterpart Arriving Later This Year

Where The Vices is rooted in instinct and movement, its upcoming counterpart Solace will shift gears into vulnerability. According to Tiller, this part of the double album serves as “my own personal therapy session.”

Fans can expect songs that explore:

  • Mental health and emotional clarity
  • The complexities of growth
  • The aftermath of fame and personal evolution

This dual-release concept shows the full spectrum of Tiller’s artistry. It’s a reflection of the balance between impulse and introspection—something many listeners will find both timely and relatable.

A Full-Circle Moment: 10 Years of T R A P S O U L

As Tiller prepares to drop The Vices, he’s also closing in on a milestone: the ten-year anniversary of his breakout debut album, T R A P S O U L, in October.

Released in 2015, T R A P S O U L introduced the world to a fresh new sound—one that fused moody R&B melodies with hard-hitting trap drums. That blueprint quickly became the standard for an entire wave of artists and positioned Tiller as one of the most influential voices in modern R&B.

Tracks like “Don’t,” “Exchange,” and “Rambo” helped usher in a new lane of emotionally raw, street-aware soul. As he nears this anniversary, the rollout of Solace & The Vices feels like a natural progression—a reflection on where he’s been, and a declaration of where he’s headed.

Touring With Chris Brown: Breezy Bowl XX Stadium Tour

Tiller’s big summer doesn’t stop with new music. He’s currently on the road with Chris Brown as a special guest on the Breezy Bowl XX Stadium Tour, which runs through September. The massive U.S. tour includes performances at legendary venues like:

  • Fenway Park (Boston)
  • Wrigley Field (Chicago)
  • SoFi Stadium (Los Angeles)

Also joining select dates is Summer Walker, making this one of the most stacked R&B and hip-hop lineups of the year. The stadium tour has already drawn high praise for its visuals, vocals, and chemistry between performers.

Tiller’s inclusion brings another layer of energy to the shows. His catalog—from T R A P S O U L to Anniversary—resonates with fans looking for both turn-up anthems and intimate ballads.

Bryson Tiller and Chris Brown Drop “It Depends”

As if touring together wasn’t enough, Tiller and Chris Brown recently collaborated on the smooth new single “It Depends”, which dropped last week. The track blends both artists’ strengths—Brown’s silky vocals and Tiller’s rhythmic cool—creating an addictive, mid-tempo vibe.

“It Depends” has quickly generated buzz across streaming platforms and social media, fueling anticipation for The Viceseven further.

It’s the kind of collab fans have wanted for years—and the timing couldn’t be more perfect.

A New Chapter for Bryson Tiller

Bryson Tiller’s journey has been anything but linear. After the runaway success of T R A P S O U L, he took time to focus on personal growth, fatherhood, and creative recalibration. That time away made room for deeper storytelling, and now, it’s all coming full circle with Solace & The Vices.

This new double album allows Tiller to stretch out, challenge expectations, and most importantly, speak his truth. Whether he’s rapping over booming drums or crooning over moody melodies, the Louisville native is proving that his pen—and his purpose—are stronger than ever.

What Makes This Release Evergreen?

Beyond the music, The Vices and Solace tackle universal themes that keep the content evergreen:

  • The duality of human nature—our bold sides and our soft sides
  • The power of self-reflection and emotional healing
  • The evolution of artistry over a decade
  • The push-pull between public success and private struggle

These aren’t just trends—they’re deeply personal stories that continue to resonate with fans long after the initial release.

Tiller’s Moment of Reinvention

Bryson Tiller isn’t just dropping another album—he’s telling his story in two acts. The Vices is the sound of a man on the move, ready to reintroduce himself. Solace will follow with vulnerability, honesty, and healing.

Together, they offer a rare look into the mind of an artist balancing fame, family, and self-discovery.

With a major tour underway, a decade-defining anniversary approaching, and fresh music on the way, 2025 could be Tiller’s most impactful year yet.
