Inklings that the Odd Future collective has fallen apart got more substantive via some comments from Earl Sweatshirt published yesterday. Speaking with The Guardian, Earl seemed to follow up (again) on Tyler, The Creator's Tweets about the unraveling of Odd Future this past May. While the news isn't a surprise considering the lack of recent musical collaboration going on within the camp, Sweatshirt admitted explicitly that he's distancing himself from the group. "My world is kind of small," he said. "I mean, it’s bigger than it has ever been, but when I’m at home I don’t go out to other places. I don’t have a car, either. Every one of my [neighbors] minds their own damn business. I’m not a person that garners a whole lot of attention."

When asked about potential Odd Future collaborations, Sweatshirt seemed to shoot down the possibility. "I mean, see for yourself," he said. "You’ve just got to look, bro, that shit is not cracking. Right now, I’m really trying to set my own two feet down as me. The OF thing follows you – it’s viral – even though not one thing I’ve done in the past couple years has been focused on OF...It’s my teenage boy club that got famous that I’m trying to not be defined by."
