It has been almost three years since Blaze's last release, 2007's Clockwork Gray.
Gang Rags will feature tracks that are reminiscent of Blaze's usual throw back homage to the late '80s and '90s gangsta rap but the album will also feature more upbeat songs.
Gang Rags is packaged with one of five exclusive bandanas: red, white, blue, green and black.
Producer Mike E. Clark and Violent J of Insane Clown Posse are responsible for the sharp production of Gang Rags.
Violent J also lends his rap and writing skills on many tracks, including one where he is joined by his ICP partner, Shaggy 2 Dope.
There are additional guest appearances by Kottonmouth Kings, ABK and the Dayton Family.
In support of Gang Rags, Blaze has some shows and in-store events lined up to promote the release including a in-store appearance at the Lansing FYE and a show in Lansing The Loft at Harem Urban Lounge on July 2.
