Black Keys (Folky indie band) x Rappers Colab.

My two favorites are With Mos Def, and RZA





Anyone else heard of these?

Yay! Karma going your way Sir, I've been a huge Black keys fan for a long time, and I actually buy their albums. I pre-orderer Blakroc with a sweet tee when it came out!

I was also pretty stoked when eheath used one of their songs in this edit, especially since John Kutcher totally kills it in it!

1. no they're not, it's simple and repetitive. If I was the drummer in that band I would kill myself.
2. they sound like every fucking band from 35 years ago.
3. Fuck you, I'm a gorilla.

.....So your saying they sound like David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Jimmy Buffett, Santana, ZZ Top, The Beach Boys, Ted Nugent, The Rolling Stones, Billy Joel, and Queen|? Just to name a few... You must know SO much about music if you think The Black Keys sound like music from the late 70s, early 80s.......
