Help (stylized in all lowercase) is the second studio album by American singer Blackbear. It was released on November 27, 2015 through his independent record label Beartrap following his debut album Deadroses (2015) and the acoustic EP Dead (2015). The album includes guest appearances from Jerry Good and Maejor. Four singles were released in promotion of the album: "Different Hos", "Paragraphs", "Oh Lord", and "Slide Thru" featuring Jerry Good. The album peaked at No. 34 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
Help describes Blackbear's addiction to prescription drugs and wish for escapism. The album cover features a picture of him at the SoHo House West Hollywood and was designed by frequent collaborator Mod Sun.[1] [2]
"Different Hos" was released as the lead single from Help on October 25, 2015 on SoundCloud with "Paragraphs" and "Oh Lord" following on November 16 and 20 respectively. "Hustler" was released alongside "Paragraphs" but was removed after a few hours. "Slide Thru" was released as a single alongside a music video on January 15, 2016.[3]
