The R.E.D. Album shouldn't be hard to locate if you find yourself wandering into the local record shop looking for Jayceon's new album on August 23rd. Red is the new in color for album covers, word to Supa Dupa Sean's art . H/T: RR

Where in the world is Wee Willy Young ? I like this image, but I would like it more if 1) he was not about to get run over by a truck and 2) if he was in a discernible place like, you know, like the center of London or where he belongs, maybe atop that column in Trafalgar Square. Or. atop. me. [...]

Red Hot Chili Peppers highly anticipated new album ' I'm With You ' is set for release on August 30.

Via: Rap-Up Finally, Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch the Throne project is set for lift off very soon. The official album art has been unveiled. Givenchy Creative Director, Riccardo Tisci , who designed the single art for "H.A.M." has designed the gold metallic album cover, pretty nice, isn't it? Ryan Seacrest claims new music from the project will surface around July 11 . This will most likely be the single, "Lift Off," featuring Bruno Mars and Beyoncé with an album release date of [...]

Shrouded in secrecy, concrete details about Watch The Throne have been hard to pin down. Along with Wayne & Em, the billing of Kanye and Jay poses one of rap's most bankable billings thus the rumors and speculation have been full throttle since word first emerged confirming the project was indeed in the works. And now, MTO got their hands on what they report will be the album cover. They also throw in the requisite Illuminati mentions, almost immediately discrediting themselves. Toss the new cover in the bin with the other [...]

This is the album cover for The Rapture 's upcoming record In The Grace Of Yur Love out September 6 in the U.S. and September 5 in Europe via DFA We already posted How Deep Is Your Love from the forthcoming album.

Now with the Tycho album fully mixed and mastered I've been thinking a lot about cover art design. Came across this interesting collection at Sarcoptiform's flickr .

Another one of those bands that I've been ignoring for I have o idea what reasons, are The Mountain Goats . Well, basically it's the project of John Darnielle , but he has several other people around him. My first two obsessions - Dinu Lipatti's Bones and Broom People are provided by the The Sunset Tree album. Such honest and simple music, in spite of the complicated subjects it deals with (death, domestic violence, drugs and alcohol). Simply beautiful. [...]

Kelly Rowland has just unveiled the official cover for her third studio album called "Here I Am" that will be out on July 26, 2011. Rowland keeps it simple, sexy and even steamy on the blue cover "Here I Am" which is a close up of the "Rose Colored Glasses"'s singer face gazing at the [...] Kelly Rowland Here I Am Album Cover is a post from: RnB Music Blog

Miles Kane has revealed the cover art for his forthcoming single, ' Inhaler '. Kane is set to release the latest single off his debut album, ' Colour of the Trap ', on July 11. The single is set to feature a live version of " Hey Bulldog! ". Check out the cover art above.

Disappointed in Bad Meets Evil's latest endeavor ? Well, Royce fans, you're in luck. Nickel Nine is going for five-as in his fifth album, 5 Cigs and 5x platinum-with Success Is Certain . While Bruno Mars is a no-show this go around, there's still a couple of Wu-heads, a mad drummer and the melanin-challenged rhyme maniacs of Shady Records to fill the slots. Not that Royce needs the extra garnish, though. He has endured several lapses of generations and trends without so much as a batting an eyelash as to worry whether [...]

You may recall that two years back we were completely captivated by Cut Off Your Hands ' set at Noise Pop in San Francisco. It's been a while since we've heard from the band, aside from a few studio tracks leaking on their blog , so we were psyched to get a revealing press release today about the band's latest. Due on August 16th, Hollow is the band's second full length (cover above) and, according to the band, is a fully realized manifestation of an "expanded palette [...]

Has it really been two month, since our last Chronicles?!...I must apologise for the lack of UC as we had a few thecnical issues, and couldn't make it for the past couple of months. But now we are officially back and better than ever. I would like to thank Moka Only for joining us on our last series, very interesting in depth view at some of Torch's world, if you haven't peeped it, you missing out. This month we bring you Suff Daddy. We have been posting about Suff, since day one, and honestly [...]

Photo courtesy of Nikka Costa . "Pro*Whoa!" by Nikka Costa. Out June 21, 2011 Good news for music lovers! The funky white bitch, Nikka Costa is back! Nikka has recently made her long overdue return to the stage performing with Prince and she's going to be touring the US in June and July 2011 (see dates below). If you've never seen Nikka live, I cannot urge you strongly enough to see her. I have lost count of how many times I've seen her perform [...]

Photo courtesy of Wendy and Lisa . Snapshots by Wendy and Lisa It's no secret that Wendy and Lisa made a huge creative contribution to the songs of their former boss Prince (as members of his band The Revolution). Since going solo in late 1986, Wendy and Lisa have continued funking out, but have also made great textured music while exploring the genres of rock, pop and of course, the countless musical scores they've composed for film and TV. Wendy and Lisa are looking back on their illustrious career, but [...]

At first I was confused as to why K.R.I.T. was dropping R4: The Prequel at all. Essentially, just four songs from an album that didn't need to be shrunk and a six-month-old remix, this mini-listen is almost completely unnecessary for any of his legitimate fans. Then again, maybe that's not who it's intended for. Just as the "Country Sh!t (Remix)" video makes it's way to the mainstream, this sampling of the Mississippian's muddied music is the perfect inaugural listen for anyone unfamiliar. Regardless of any could've-been substitutions, these five dissimilar [...]

Running off the buzz from the mainstream video premiere of "Run The World (Girls)," Beyoncé & Co. use the opportunity to unveil 4 's album cover. Not sure what to make of it but we notice the vintage tint used on the photo, as used by many hipsters. Four will arrive in stores on June 24 internationally and June 28 in the US.

Being a band with an amazing debut must be very tricky. Especially if that debut came naturally out of you, from an ache, a rage, depression, or something of this sort. Like it was with Bon Iver . I bet every fan of Justin's incredibly beautiful For Emma, Forever Ago , has this tiny fear that the new album - Bon Iver, Bon Iver - won't have the same magic and emotional strength. I'm listening to this new one for the [...]
