Here’s some big news for your Thursday: indie rock mainstays Modest Mouse are hard at work on a new record. Now, here’s some really big news: the band is collaborating with OutKast member/awesome solo artist Big Boi. Get it? Big news, ‘cause it’s Big Boi!! I kill me.
There’s not a lot of information on what exactly Big Boi is doing on this forthcoming Modest Mouse record. In fact, the only information whatsoever comes from the following quote from the rapper’s Twitter account: “Been camped out in the Lab with Modest Mouse all week, workin on the new mouse LP, coolest cats ever. Long Live The Funk.” There you go. Once there’s some sort of indication of the nature of Big Boi’s involvement, I’m sure you will hear about it incessantly. Personally, I hope that he ends up the KRS-One to Isaac Brock’s Michael Stipe and that Brock wears a silly looking hat in the video.
