Awol One, affectionately known as Awolrus, has always been a prolific artist. In 2007, however, he’s on a tear. The next two months will find him releasing three albums, as well as heading out on a national tour in May and June.

The first disc, Only Death Can Kill You, pairs him with Saskatoon producer Factor. Cornerstone R.A.S. issued the disc on April 24.

Next up is Splitsville, where he taps the U.S./Canada backpack connection again and teams up with Josh Martinez and DJ Moves. That disc arrives via Vancouver label Camo Bear on May 15.

Finally, Awol One adopts a bizarre guise, Horrendous Acts of Violence. The self-described "electro death hop" joint comes out via his imprint AVB Records (with distribution from MVD Audio) on June 5.

Not enough Awol One for you? The L.A. vet, with turntable support from Factor, goes on a North American tour next month. Josh Martinez and DJ Moves, Mine + US, and DJ Hoppa join him. You can check out tour dates below.
