Steve Lacy Confirms Oh Yeah? For July 17 and Releases 'The Feeling' Video

The self-produced 10-track album is pitched as the culmination of a four-year personal and creative journey that foregrounds lyrics over beats.

Overview

  • The lead single “The Feeling” and its Matthew Castellanos-directed video were released on June 5, and the clip opens on a floating image of Lacy before moving through intimate, surreal scenes.
  • RCA has set Oh Yeah? for release on July 17 and published a 10-track tracklist that includes the previously shared “Nice Shoes,” now listed as “Nice Shoes / In Your World.”
  • Lacy is credited as the album’s primary producer and writer, and press materials and interviews say he shifted from a beat-first process to focusing more intentionally on lyrics and design.
  • The campaign highlights collaborators and visuals, with Matthew Castellanos directing the video, photographer Gus Van Sant supplying the cover image, and Alice Smith credited as a co-writer on the lead single.
  • Oh Yeah? follows Lacy’s 2022 Grammy-winning LP Gemini Rights, giving the July release heightened commercial and critical attention and framing this record as a defining new era for his work.
