I love how The Roots are both releasing some of the best hip-hop albums out there with Black Thought while still producing and playing classic soul for legendary artists like Al Green, Betty Wright, Al Green, John Legend, and now Elvis Costello; one of the pioneering punk-rock/ska artists in the '70s and forward with an extensively eclectic style. A collaboration with The Roots might seem straight on paper at first, but I have a feeling this LP will be a monster if you're into different types of Music, as evident by the just liberated single (and video) "Walk Us Uptown" which provides a more rugged sound than you might've expected. The full-length collabo is called "Wise Up Ghost" and will hit stores late this year.
