Fresh off a standout month that included his co-headlining performance with Don Toliver at Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash Festival, a surprise performance with Drake at Wireless Festival in London, and the release of his newest EP, DANGEROUS SUMMER, Yeat releases the EDGLRD directed video for ’’LOOSE LEAF’’. Shot entirely at a motel in Florida and executive produced by Kids and Gummo director Harmony Korine, the video sees Yeat running around with live alligators, playing into Korine’s well-known obsession with the swamp animal.
In classic Harmony Korine fashion, it’s an unsettling, out-of-this-world visual that perfectly mirrors Yeat’s sonic style. Featuring upper-echelon superstar collaborators including FKA Twigs, Don Toliver, SahBabii, and more, Yeat’s newest EP expands and elevates his style like never before. DANGEROUS SUMMER is a hit-laced preview of the next chapter in his creative odyssey, offering die-hards a potential look at what’s to come on his long-rumored forthcoming LP, ADL (A Dangerous Lyfe). This aptly named EP arrives as the 25-year-old visionary is wrapping up a summer world tour, including drawing a 120K+ person crowd at the Beach, Please! festival in Romania and closing down the three-day Clout Festival in Poland. The cover art for the project was shot by Harmony Korine and designed by the creative team at EDGLRD using live alligators (which almost bit him) in Broward County, Florida, where Yeat and Harmony rented out an entire motel to shoot the EP cover. He rolled out the features, artwork, and vision for the EP in guerilla-style, nuclear fallout themed signage –– further signaling the start of a fresh era for the 25-year-old superstar. As Yeat ushers in this new phase, DANGEROUS SUMMER marks another bold step forward in a year that’s already been full of milestones.
Yeat’s last project, the #1 Billboard 200 charting LYFESTYLE, kicked off last summer when he teased new music during his special three-show North American run across New York, Los Angeles, and Portland. Within its first week of release, the 22-track album sold 89K+ equivalent album units, his highest first-week sales to date, and marked Yeat’s first-ever No. 1 album on the Billboard 200. This milestone was his fifth top 10 debut in under three years, following Lyfë (No. 10 in 2022), 2 Alivë (No. 6 in 2022), AftërLyfe (No. 4 in 2023), and 2093 (No. 2 in 2024). Building on that momentum, Yeat has kept up a relentless pace in 2025.
