0 Comments
An album featuring the Black Keys and some of the biggest names in hip-hop will be released Nov. 27 (the so-called "Black Friday" day after Thanksgiving) under the name Blakroc.
 
The project sports contributions from Jim Jones, Mos Def, Q-Tip, RZA, Raekwon, Ludacris, Pharoahe Monch, NOE, Nicole Wray, Billy Danze and the late Ol' Dirty Bastard.
 
Sessions got underway in early summer in Brooklyn, N.Y., with Mos Def's songs among the first put to tape. A video teaser featuring in-studio footage is now live at blakroc.com.

It is unclear who is releasing the project, although sources say it was spearheaded by the Black Keys, Damon Dash and Keys' manager John Peets at Q Prime South.
 
The Black Keys are off the road through the end of the year, but the group has begun work on its next studio album.
