No, there is nothing new on this post as far as music, but I felt it’s only right that I speak on this upcoming project from Detroit’s Zo! and Phonte (of Little Brother). Te recently spoke with DX about the project saying that it’s their way of paying homage to the stuff they grew up listening too. If you aren’t aware Zo! & Tigallo Love the 80’s! is a project that is chalk full of covers to 80’s R&B and pop songs. And to be honest, it’s one of my most anticipated albums of 2008. I had the honor to preview a few tracks during our chill time in MPLS and despite me not knowing a few of the originals (since I’m a real 80’s baby and was too young to remember) the music itself is amazing. Te also said they were very serious with everything, from the vocal side, to the production side, to the final mixing and mastering. And based off what I heard I can’t argue that at all! Be on the lookout for a new leak from the project sometime next week (most likely on the ever-so-dope Gordon Gartrell Radio podcast). Until then, enjoy the three tracks that have been released in the past.
