Could it be another update on collaborations? Yes.
Update on the Wu-Tang collaboration
The final version of The Heart Gently Weeps is available as a download; with both clean and explicit lyrics.
An instrumental version will be followed on the actual tangible single CD. I somehow manage to hear it and it sounds really good, one can tell who’s on the guitar. More info on the single as soon as it is actually available. Have a look at the cover, too.
You can also hear the CD and single versions of the song here.
Update on the Omar Rodriguez-Lopez collaboration
The nice people from N20 records have put up three short clips of songs off the Calibration album on its official MySpace page, El Monte Tai, Is Pushing Luck and Calibration, but no vocals can be heard on those samples. So, go there for a quick listen and guess we’ll have to wait more to actually hear John.
Update on the Raekwon collaboration
According to some rumours, Raekwon’s new album, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II, on which John will be featured on the song The Brass will be out in summer 2008. Let’s hope it actually happens this time!
