Milwaukee rapper 414JungleBaby has released "Blocklist," the second single from her upcoming EP Everybody Watching, due September 4, 2026. The track is out now on all major streaming platforms including Spotify and Apple Music.

"Blocklist" is the follow-up to "Hit a Right," the first single from Everybody Watching, which drew coverage from DAZED, Audiomack, and VIPER. The new single arrives less than a week before the full project drops.

What Is on the Everybody Watching EP

Everybody Watching is a nine-track project. Confirmed tracks include "Blocklist," "Hit a Right," "I'm Him" (which features the line "I'm a girl turned to a king"), and "Run N Gun," a collaboration with Philadelphia artist Surf7. Surf7 has been building a following in the Philly scene and this marks a cross-city link-up that puts two rising independent voices on the same record. No producer credits were included in the press materials.

The EP is available for pre-save now on Spotify and Apple Music. The full project streams everywhere on September 4, 2026.

How Everybody Watching Connects to 414JungleBaby's Debut

Everybody Watching follows 414JungleBaby's debut EP Jungle This, Jungle That, which received an 8.5 rating from Earmilk, according to the press release. The debut also contained "Yo Baby," which Pitchfork named a Best New Track. The Pitchfork review quoted in the release reads: "The melodic Milwaukee rapper drops off one of the most fun get-money tracks in a while...This morning, on my way to the gym, this new 414JungleBaby track was smacking so hard that I turned the whip around to go home to blog about it."

Apple Music called Jungle This, Jungle That "one of rap's most tantalizing debuts of 2026," according to the press release. The debut also generated an On The Radar performance, a platform that has helped break artists including Ice Spice and Lola Brooke. The press release also notes co-signs from Sexyy Red, Ancyia, Veeze, J.P., and Bslime, though the nature of those co-signs is not specified.

414JungleBaby is repped by Audible Treats, the New York-based PR firm that has worked with artists including Quelle Chris, billy woods, and Armand Hammer. The label situation for Everybody Watching was not disclosed in the press materials.

No tour dates or live performances were announced alongside the EP. If 414JungleBaby adds any LA dates, we will update this post. Check our [events calendar](/events) for shows in the city.

What Independent Artists Can Take From This Campaign

The rollout here is a straightforward two-single-before-the-drop structure. "Hit a Right" landed first and pulled in outlet coverage. "Blocklist" drops close enough to the release date to keep the name in feeds without burning the album's momentum. That sequencing is something any independent artist can replicate without a major budget. The advance stream sent under embargo to press also gave writers time to sit with the full project before Friday, which increases the chance of day-one coverage rather than day-three roundups.

Everybody Watching by 414JungleBaby is out September 4, 2026. "Blocklist" is streaming now.
