Sugar, We're Going In · 2025-04-27

When Fall Out Boy hit pause, Patrick Stump hit play on something entirely different. In today’s episode, we dive into Truant Wave, the 2011 EP where he mixed hip-hop, R&B, funk, and electronic sounds into something nobody saw coming.

We dive into the EP’s collabs (Om'Mas Keith, Idris Elba??), the near-misses (Childish Gambino! Nicki Minaj!), and how this left-field project quietly shaped Fall Out Boy’s future.

This EP wasn’t just a side quest, it was the blueprint for everything Fall Out Boy would evolve into later. Let’s get into why Truant Wave mattered more than anyone realized + why it still slaps today.
