// the BLAKROC revolution ☮

album release today...NOVEMBER 27th..."black friday"

Rock/HipHop collaboration with Ohio blues/rock band The Black Keys (Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney) and hiphop artists Mos Def, Q-Tip, RZA, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, Raekwon, Ludacris, Pharoahe Monch, Jim Jones, NOE, Nicole Wray and Billy Danze.

Aside from the music and collaborative efforts, everything about the whole project screams creativity.



The photography, webisodes, videos--all parts involved have a great ear and a great eye.

It's a beautiful thing to see such different genres working together. You hear mash-ups everywhere with DJ's mixing new age music with old rock classics but this is the real thing.

You can see the heart and soul that goes into it and it's a great way to get different generations or groups of people appreciating a genre they may not normally listen to...

Check out the BLAKROC website for current updates, radio streaming, webisodes and more.
