LP! is the fourth studio album by American rapper JPEGMafia. Released on 22 October 2021, his 32nd birthday, LP! is JPEGMafia's final studio album released with Republic Records and EQT Recordings. LP! has two versions: an "online" version which was the version released on streaming services, and an "offline" version which was released on YouTube, SoundCloud, and Bandcamp, featuring a slightly different tracklist due to sample-related issues. The album includes guest appearances from DatPiffMafia, Kimbra, Tkay Maidza, and Denzel Curry (online version only).

Upon release, LP! received acclaim among music critics and publications, with some critics naming the "offline" version of the album as JPEGMafia's best album.

Release

LP! was released as two separate versions, being the "online" and "offline" versions. This was done due to issues regarding sample clearances with multiple songs planned for the album, most notably "Hazard Duty Pay!". The "offline" version is how JPEGMafia had intended to release the album, with multiple cuts and changes being made for the "online" streaming version. In an interview with Office Magazine, JPEGMafia gave his reasoning behind releasing the "offline" version of LP!:

I was like, even if I can't clear this, I wanted people to hear it.... I just didn't want people to think that the version of streaming was my fully formed like vision, because my personal vision would not be to put three songs in there, that were already out. My full vision was the offline one. So for the hardcore fans, they can listen to that if they want. And the version online is comparable, but like the if you want to see the true one, you know what I mean, just for the nerds, it's there. It’s out there if you want to go get it.

Reissues

On December 22, 2022, JPEGMafia released a remaster of the "offline" version on vinyl, CD, and USB stick. This version came with new cover art, a lyric book, and instrumentals for each song. This version would be released to streaming platforms on May 23, 2023.

Reception

My fans seem to really like it and as long as they like it, I’m satisfied. Everything els is a bonus. Because when I released EP2!, they didn’t really like that too much. So I felt terrible. I don’t really care what anybody else said about it. But this one, they seem to be enjoying it. I think they expected me to be on cruise control but it’s just like, I don’t even know what that is. If I’m working on something, I’m going to put my whole everything into it, and this is the best I could do, in one of the worst periods of time in my life, mentally. So I’m just glad that they like it.

– JPEGMafia, regarding fan reception.

LP! received critical acclaim. According to the review aggregator Metacritic, LP! received "universal acclaim" based on a weighted average score of 82 out of 100 from five critic scores.
