RIP Gil Scott Heron Legendary musician Gil Scott-Heron , who helped lay the groundwork for rap by fusing minimalistic percussion, political expression and spoken-word poetry on songs such as “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised,” died Friday at age 62. Lyrics: The Revolution will not be Televised Growing up I knew who Gil Scott Heron was but I did not fully understand his impact until I started studying music on my own! I sort of forgot about him for a short period [...]

Gil Scott-Heron | We Almost Lost Detroit
One of my former students pointed me toward a video of "Me and the Devil," a song from Gil Scott-Heron's new album, which will be released next month. I'm thrilled that Scott-Heron's back on track after a lot of rough years. Scott-Heron inspired me as much as any musician I heard when I was in college. He taught to write with passion and idealism, anger and skepticism. And a show at Purdue featuring Scott-Heron back in the late '70s is still one of my all-time favorites. I'm looking forward to the new album. Here's [...]

Gil Scott-Heron now on XL (2010 album), was @ Bowery Ballroom to see labelmates/remixers? The xx (now a trio)

Gil Scott-Heron now on XL (2010 album), was @ Bowery Ballroom to see labelmates/remixers? The xx (now a trio) When I got to the xx show at Bowery Ballroom last night (11/11), I was told by someone reliable that Gil Scott-Heron was planning on joining the headlining UK band on stage for some songs - both with them and on his own for a few. At first I thought that was completely random. Then I realized that the xx's label XL Recordings recently announced that they signed Gil. They'll be releasing "I'm New Here", his first album since 1994's "Spirits", on Jan. 11, 2010. And according to jamespenycate , "The [...]

“Everyone Knows…” Ride Out and Terry Cole lend their take on Gil Scott Heron’s classic about the Detroit Riots . After Mitch Albom spoke on the unsettled souls , its serves as further detail to dismay. Not all props go to Ride & TC though, as fellow Detroit emcees Marquis Porter and Natas both had their versions out previously.
