Dropout Boogie is the eleventh studio album by American rock duo the Black Keys.

[2] Work for Dropout Boogie began in summer of 2021, which initially saw the Black Keys plan ideas for the album as a duo before recruiting multiple musicians to collaborate with them such as Greg Cartwright of Reigning Sound and Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, the latter a longtime friend of the duo.

[3][4] The album was recorded at Dan Auerbach's Easy Eye Sound studio in Nashville, Tennessee.

[7] To promote the album, the Black Keys embarked on the Dropout Boogie Tour, which consisted of 32 dates across the United States with Band of Horses as a supporting act alongside Ceramic Animal, Early James, and the Velveteers as opening acts on select dates.

[10] Hal Horowitz of American Songwriter gave the album four out of five stars, and concluded his review by writing: "Fame, fortune and influence haven't dulled [the band's] initial impulses, something made clear on the hypnotic unvarnished vibe created throughout the superb Dropout Boogie.
