Andy Mineo's 'Uncomfortable' Album Promises to be 'Musical and Sample-Driven' Rather Than Sound Like 'Playlists'

Andy Mineo

Christian emcee Andy Mineo is getting ready to release his latest full-length album, Uncomfortable, on September 18, 2015 (Reach Records).

Uncomfortable is executive produced by !llmind (J.Cole, Drake, 50 Cent) and will be available for sale physically and digitally across iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play with pre-orders coming on August 7th.

Fans and supporters of Mineo including Grammy-Award winning artist, Lecrae, MTV journalist and music expert, Rob Markman and acclaimed producer !llmind all partook in the roll out of the new project with a timed release of behind-the-scenes video clips across each of their social media networks. The final video, the official cover announcement, was shared with eager fans via Mineo's social channels. The full video can viewed at andymineo.com.

Mineo's previous project entitled Never Land debuted at number one on iTunes, selling over 25,000 digital albums its first week. The official video for "You Can't Stop Me" off Never Land has been viewed over one million times on YouTube and the single has sold over 90K units.

In 2014, SwaysUniverse.com posed the question "Is Andy Mineo the future of rap?" Mineo has appeared on MTV's RapFix Live and Shade 45/Sirius XM's Sway in the Morning where hip-hop culture icon and veteran, Sway showed immense support for the artist saying, "This dude can rap. He can rap his a** off. [This is] music you can tune into 24 hours a day."

Mineo attributes the album's fresh but nostalgic sounds to his hometown of New York City.

He describes the album as, "Musical and sample-driven. There are not a lot of anthemic pop songs on this album. It's more of a cohesive body of work. My other albums have sounded like playlists. This is more of a focused full-body of music. It's uncomfortable in its approach. I break a lot of song structure but it will take people on a journey."

Like his previous album, Heroes for Sale and Never Land EP, Mineo combines witty and powerfully authentic lyrics to deliver a highly entertaining, yet positive message filled with anecdotes and lessons that truly resonate with listeners.

Andy Mineo is planning a nationwide tour this fall in support of Uncomfortable.
