The Black Keys Are Releasing A Rap Album?

The rock-blues duo from Akron, OH is collaborating with a variety of rap artists to release a new album on November 27th (Black Friday).  They are calling the project Blakroc.  It will be interesting how the Black Keys sound with the likes of Mos Def and Q-Tip.  The little trailer above is cool and the first track sounds pretty good.

Dude- hat is a quiver of great rappers. It sounds like a super cool album - thanks for the heads up, eh (that's Canadian for "huh")

I agree I think there sound will work well with the cornucopia of rappers. Akron is not too far from the Canadian border.
