JPEGMAFIA & Danny Brown is the pairing behind SCARING THE HOES (2023, AWAL), with JPEGMAFIA producing every track beneath the duo's contrasting vocal attacks. Widely called one of the most important hip hop albums of 2023, it also spawned the expanded DLC PACK edition later that year.

This collaborative credit refers to the 2023 album SCARING THE HOES by JPEGMAFIA and Danny Brown, released on AWAL Recordings. JPEGMAFIA produced the entire album. The deluxe edition SCARING THE HOES: DLC PACK was released later in 2023 with additional tracks. The album was widely cited as one of the most important hip hop albums of 2023 and exemplifies both artists' shared interest in experimental production approaches.
SCARING THE HOES combines experimental hip hop, alternative hip hop, glitch hop, abstract hip hop, and noise rap with JPEGMAFIA's distinctive sample-heavy chaotic production and both rappers' complementary vocal approaches (Brown's nasal high-pitched delivery and JPEGMAFIA's range). The album is widely cited as a defining contemporary experimental hip hop document.
AWAL pressings of SCARING THE HOES have been issued in multiple color variant editions and limited deluxe pressings.
Listeners new to this collaboration should start with SCARING THE HOES (2023).
