Isaiah Rashad Fans Demand Answers After The Sun’s Tirade Vanishes from Streaming Platforms

Isaiah Rashad fans were left perplexed and disappointed after his iconic 2016 album, The Sun’s Tirade, suddenly disappeared from streaming platforms like Apple Music, Spotify, and TIDAL. Without any statement from Rashad or his label, Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE), fans took to social media, demanding an explanation for the unexpected removal of the album, which has long been celebrated for its unique blend of introspective lyrics and atmospheric production.

The Tennessee rapper, known for hits like “Free Lunch,” shared a cryptic message on X (formerly Twitter) after the album’s removal, posting: “beefin wit yaself is ugh lol.” This ambiguous comment did little to ease fans’ concerns, with many responding directly to Rashad, asking for clarity about The Sun’s Tirade’s disappearance.

One fan tweeted, “where did the suns tirade go im gonna cry man,” while another expressed frustration: “N-gga just tweeting all regular like one of the greatest albums ever ain’t just disappear off streaming services.” Rashad’s tweet quickly went viral as more followers questioned the absence of the album and called for answers.

Released in 2016, The Sun’s Tirade marked Rashad’s debut studio album, featuring high-profile collaborations with artists like Kendrick Lamar, SZA, and Jay Rock. The album came as Rashad’s second major release with TDE, following his 2014 project, Cilvia Demo. The Sun’s Tirade explored themes of mental health, addiction, and redemption, solidifying Rashad’s place in the hip-hop landscape and resonating deeply with fans.

Adding to fans’ disappointment, The Sun’s Tirade had remained popular on streaming platforms, gaining a new wave of listeners with the rise of streaming. Now, only the single version of “Free Lunch” remains available, leaving many listeners with a significant gap in their playlists.

While Rashad’s fans await the album’s return, there is one bit of good news: the rapper is currently working on new music. In recent updates, Rashad mentioned he was close to finishing his fourth album, which he says he’s “really proud” of. In a text message shared by NFR Podcast, Rashad hinted at the project’s progress, saying, “Shit crazy like I’m tryna finish strong so I’m finishing strong type shit. Really proud of the production. Really proud of the words this round.”

Despite the mystery surrounding The Sun’s Tirade, fans remain hopeful that it will be back on streaming platforms soon, with Rashad’s upcoming album potentially on the horizon as well. As fans continue to demand answers and eagerly await new music, Rashad’s silence only adds to the intrigue surrounding one of hip-hop’s most introspective voices.
