G-Eazy announces album and releases new single ahead of Dublin show

G-Eazy has announced that his upcoming album, Helium, will come out Friday, February 28 via RCA Records. He has also released a new single, 'Kiss The Sky,' ahead of his performance at Dublin's Vicar Street on Tuesday, February 11.

The 'No Limit' rapper's next album will feature 12 tracks. It has love's highs and lows as a central theme, and will entail a return to his original sound.

"If you're going to talk about heartbreak, be brutal, and be real and be vulnerable, that goes a long way," Eazy told PEOPLE. "But if you're going to talk about the highs of love, you got to go all the way there, too, and have fun," he added.

'Kiss the Sky' features vocals from Cage the Elephant's lead singer, Matt Schultz. Its lyrics delve into classic hip-hop themes of opulence ("Party, throw a TV out the window at the Chateau Marmont / Wearin' all black and it's all Saint Laurent"), and drug use ("Then you start to trip, trust me, you wanna be high for this").

The single follows the release of 'Nada' and 'Vampires,' also featured in the new album. Eazy surprised his fans by performing these songs live last fall, creating expectation for his new project. Other releases from the artist include 'Him & I (With Halsey),' with more than a billion streams in Spotify, or 'Me, Myself & I,' featuring Bebe Rexha, which nears a billion and a half.

Eazy is currently finishing his European tour, which will take him to Dublin's Vicar Street next Tuesday. He announced a North American tour beginning in April 4, with supporting acts including Marc E. Bassy and Goody Grace.
