A New White is the first studio album by American hip hop sextet Subtle. It was released on Lex Records in 2004.
Brian Howe of Pitchfork gave the album a 7.8 out of 10, describing it as "an chimera cobbled together from live and programmed drums, electronic strings, keyboards, samplers, guitars, woodwinds, and Doseone's chameleonic flows." Lee Henderson of PopMatters gave the album 7 stars out of 10, saying, "Subtle provides you with some of Doseone's best lyrics and art since his work with Boom Bip, accompanied by some of the best compositions anyone has created from the Anticon unit all told."
It peaked at number 55 on the CMJ Top 200 chart and at number 10 on CMJ's RPM chart.
