The Black Keys + 11 Days In The Studio + 11 Artists + 11 Tracks = BlakRoc


I hate the day after Thanksgiving. The food hangover is bad enough but then I usually have to tote my butt into the mall to work the most hellacious day of the year. This year will be exceptionally bad as I am now at JCTC and they open at 12AM. Yes, 12AM. Do you think people will mad dash into B. Bro at midnight to get some sweet non-iron button down shirts? Yeah, me either. Anyway, there is one thing that will make Black Friday a bit more bearable, new music.

While digging through Pitchfork today I saw that I missed The Black Keys new hip-hop project. Como?! That's right The Black Keys have a rock-rap project coming out Nov. 27th called BlakRoc, and everything I am hearing is awesome! The album will feature Ludacris, MosDef, Q-Tip, ODB and many more. Read the Pitchfork article here. Check out BlakRoc's site here, and a link to the song "Hoochie Coo" here.

  1. Yeah, I mean- what 62-year-old business man on the crisp of retirement ISN'T going to be dashing to your store at midnight??? That's the real question.
