He set the blueprint for many of today&#8217;s critical darlings and opened doors for so many following his personally audacious start. <\/p>\n<p>Today, Brown announces his long-awaited return with his fifth studio album <em>uknowhatimsayin\u00bf<\/em>, slated for release on October 4th via WARP. The news coincides with the release of the album&#8217;s first single and video &#8220;Dirty Laundry&#8221;, directed by Simon Cahn. Brown&#8217;s lyrics balance earnest storytelling with laugh-out-loud one-liners, especially apparent on &#8220;Dirty Laundry&#8221;; Danny&#8217;s ode to standup comedy, an art-form he&#8217;s long respected. Danny goes on to explain <em>&#8220;This is my version of a stand-up comedy album. Most of my close friends now aren&#8217;t rappers &#8212; they&#8217;re comedians and actors. So I wanted to create something that mixed humor with music. Something that was funny but not parody.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The album is executive produce by Q-Tip of A Tribe Called Quest.
