Back in 2003, studio auteur Danger Mouse and Jemini released their now-famous collaborative LP Ghetto Pop Life, which featured guest appearances from Tha Liks, J-Zone, Prince Po, and the Pharcyde. That album turned 20 just a few days ago. Soon after release, Danger Mouse and Jemini began to write and record a follow-up project, Born Again, but it was indefinitely shelved.
After Ghetto Pop Life, Danger Mouse would go on to record The Grey Album (2004) and produce for Gorillaz, A$AP Rocky, Beck, the Black Keys, Norah Jones, and Parquet Courts (just to name a few). His most recent collaborative album, meanwhile, was 2022’s Cheat Codes with Black Thought. Now, some big news: After nearly two decades, Born Again will officially be released in August. In tandem with the announcement, Danger Mouse and Jemini have shared a lead single: “Brooklyn Basquiat.”
Listen to “Brooklyn Basquiat.”
