JPEGMAFIA returns today with “War Over Land,” a haunting, cinematic track exploring the human cost of conflict and the emptiness of modern clout culture. Cutting through internet posturing, the song tackles the real-world impact of violence and social decay. It’s out now alongside a one-take music video and will appear on his upcoming album, EXPERIMENTAL RAP, out May 21.[Pre-Save Album].
EXPERIMENTAL RAP is a masterclass in left-field innovation, blending rap, punk, rock, industrial, and gospel music with Peggy’s signature “no-rules” production style and sharp lyricism. JPEGMAFIA kicked off the rollout last week with ”babygirl,” a track that channeled modern chaos through a mix of rap and rock. As a visionary who writes, produces and mixes everything himself, he remains one of the most fearless and consistent innovators in the experimental scene.

This fall, JPEGMAFIA will embark on The Experimental Rap Tour, a 20-date North American run with support from redveil and matt proxy, kicking off September 22 in Spokane, WA. Fans can expect the signature high-energy and intimately engaging live performances that have come to define his stage presence and captivate audiences at festivals including Coachella, Rolling Loud, Primavera Sound, Governors Ball and Lollapalooza. Full tour dates are listed below. Tickets are available for purchase HERE.
Before his North American run, he’ll head overseas this summer for a string of European festival dates, including Lowlands (Netherlands), Pukkelpop (Belgium), All Points East (UK), and Electric Picnic (Ireland). In 2025, JPEGMAFIA was the support act on Linkin Park’s global stadium tour “From Zero.” Earlier this year, he surprised audiences by contributing to the BTS track “FYA” from their chart-topping album ARIRANG. He also produced the acclaimed single “Fake Jeezy” featuring Maxo Kream and Denzel Curry. EXPERIMENTAL RAP will follow his widely heralded previous studio album I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU, which landed on Best-of-the-Year lists from NPR Music, TIME, and The Needle Drop
