Sleepy Hallow Is Wide Awake: 23-Track “STILL SLEEP ??” Drops With Davido, DDG and a 54-Minute Marathon
Sleepy Hallow didn’t just wake up — he brought the whole block with him.
The Brooklyn rapper dropped his new album “STILL SLEEP ??” on Friday, Nov 13, and it’s a maximalist statement: 23 tracks, just under 55 minutes, his first full-length since “Read This When You Wake Up” in December 2024. It’s also a sequel in spirit to the 2021 breakout “Still Sleep?” that introduced his melodic take on Brooklyn drill to a national audience — the album that hit No. 16 on the Billboard 200 and turned “2055” into a Hot 100 hit.
The track everyone’s talking about sits at No. 6: “Sad Face,” featuring Afrobeats superstar Davido. It’s a cross-continental link-up — Brooklyn drill meets Lagos — and it landed exactly six years to the day after Davido’s “A Better Time” album (Nov 13, 2020).
The guest list keeps moving: DDG, Loe Shimmy and Kyle Richh all appear across the 23 songs. The rollout was led by “Dirty Dan,” the preview single that dropped Oct 30 with production from FNZ, Khaled Roahim and OhRoss.
At a moment when a lot of rap albums are getting shorter, Sleepy Hallow went the other way — 23 tracks, no skimping. It’s a bet that his fan base, which has waited patiently since 2024, wants the full meal, not a snack.
“STILL SLEEP ??” is out now on all streaming platforms via Winners Circle Entertainment and RCA Records.
Toledo angle: Brooklyn drill’s melodic wave has been one of the defining rap sounds of the decade, and Sleepy Hallow is one of its most consistent voices. If “2055” was your late-night anthem, the sequel album is your weekend homework — all 23 tracks of it.
