MP3: Scarlett Johansson & Lulu Gainsbourg – Bonnie & Clyde

MP3: Bonnie And Clyde

Well, when Jay Electronica released the tracklist for his new album a couple days ago, people were suprised to see both Serge, and Charlotte Gainsbourg listed next to other guests who include Ronald Reagan, Kanye, Diddy and Jay-z.

I guess there is another singing Gainsbourg that Mr. Electronica slept-on:

Lulu Gainsbourg is Serge’s son and Charlotte’s half brother.  Above is Lulu’s Scarlett Johanson assisted cover of his father’s song Bonnie and Clyde which will appear on Lulu’s upcoming tribute album to Serge, FROM GAINSBOURG TO LULUOther guest on this album include Rufus Wainwright, Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis, Iggy Pop, and more.

FROM GAINSBOURG TO LULU drops October 3oth.

Listen: Gatekeeper- “Tree Drum (Total Freedom Debt Stalking Version)”

If you killed a man by filling his body parts with a zillion bullets and the brutal murder made a pleasant sound then it would resemble this version of Gatekeeper‘s “Tree Drum”.

Gatekeeper has an album release party at the Public Assembly in New York Friday for their new LP EXO. More release party info on the Facebook invite here

Listen: Rapsody – “NonFiction” ft. Raheem Devaughn & Ab-Soul (prod. by 9th Wonder)

I don’t remember the name of every female emcee on Bahamadia’s “3 the Hard Way” at this minute. I will say after hearing 9th Wonder’s friend Rapsody rock on this NonFiction song next to TDE’s Ab Soul that you could probably lie to me and claim that she was on that classic posse cut. Hopefully her debut LP ,‘The Idea Of Beautiful’, which is slated to be released on 8-28-2012 via Jamla Records will be just as fresh as “NonFiction”.

Listen: Danny Brown – “Molly Ringwald” (Produced By araabMUZIK)
