Sudan Archives is set to release her third album, titled 'THE BPM', on October 17, 2025, via Stones Throw Records, featuring a mix of electronic and dance influences inspired by her roots in Michigan and Illinois.

The album includes the previously released single 'DEAD' and two new tracks, 'MY TYPE' and 'YEA YEA YEA', which showcase her evolving sound—'MY TYPE' being a confident rap anthem and 'YEA YEA YEA' shifting from psychedelic house to deep R&B.

Leading up to the release, Sudan Archives shared a double single with 'MY TYPE' and 'YEA YEA YEA', following the earlier release of 'DEAD' in 2025, giving fans a taste of her high-energy, sensual, and futuristic sound.

In her new album, she introduces a persona called Gadget Girl, reflecting her embrace of technology in her music, which she credits for her creative breakthroughs, especially with her first iPad and electric violin.

This persona symbolizes her journey of self-expression, blending her love for gadgets with her musical evolution, and highlights her innovative approach to making music.

Her creative process was notably influenced by her family roots and her experimentation with electronic tools, leading to a sense of freedom and new artistic possibilities.

The track 'MY TYPE' is a club-ready anthem where she confidently raps about finding her ideal partner, exploring themes of flirtation and sexuality.

'YEA YEA YEA' features a glitchy, futuristic R&B sound, showcasing her versatility and experimental approach to genre blending.

For 'THE BPM', Sudan Archives took a hands-on approach as the executive producer, collaborating mainly with close friends and family rather than a wide range of external producers.

Inspired by her Michigan and Illinois roots, the album draws heavily from Detroit techno and Chicago house, blending genres from Jersey club to global dance music and experimental beats.

The album's title, 'THE BPM', reflects its focus on dance music and the influence of Chicago and Detroit club sounds, which played a significant role in its creation.

The album explores themes such as mental illness, self-love, technology, romance, and heartbreak, making it a deeply personal and genre-spanning project.

In addition to the album, Sudan Archives announced her largest headline shows in the UK and Europe, including a performance at London's Roundhouse, with tickets available on her website.

Her previous album, 'Natural Brown Prom Queen', was released in 2022, and she maintained a low profile throughout 2024 after performing at Coachella and on late-night shows.

The new tracks 'MY TYPE' and 'YEA YEA YEA' showcase her electronic manipulation, with 'MY TYPE' being a high-energy rap song and 'YEA YEA YEA' highlighting her sensual, experimental style.

The album 'The BPM' features 15 songs, including titles like 'Touch Me', 'David & Goliath', and 'Ms. Pac Man', each exploring different facets of her artistic identity.

'MY TYPE' is her first 'rap-rap' song, with themes of flirtation and sexuality, accompanied by a nostalgic music video that highlights her personality and relationship with technology.

The song 'My Type' is described as her first 'rap rap' track, exploring themes of flirtation, attraction, and sexual liberation with playful production.

Following her 2022 release, 'Natural Brown Prom Queen', this album marks her third major project, teased with the energetic single 'DEAD' and a focus on dance and electronic influences.

'YEA YEA YEA' transitions from psychedelic house to deep R&B, emphasizing her sexuality with a sleek production style.

She will tour extensively in the US and Europe starting August 2, 2025, with performances including Idyllwild, Austin, Brooklyn, and Dublin, wrapping up in December.

The tour features a series of shows across the US and Europe, including appearances at festivals and headline performances, supporting the album release.

The music video for 'MY TYPE' is available online, along with streaming options for both new tracks, giving fans a visual and auditory preview of her new sound.

The album is a collaborative effort involving her sister, a cousin from Detroit, and a close friend, emphasizing intimate relationships over external production.
