Kanye, Jay-Z, Charlotte Gainsbourg to feature on Jay Electronica debut
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 31 July 2012
Jay Electronica – real name Timothy Thedford – has shared the tracklisting from his long-anticipated debut LP, ‘Act II: Patents Of Nobility (The Turn)’, which, despite the rapper signing to Roc Nation two years ago, is still without a release date.
Though lacking an ETA, we do know that the record is set to include guest spots from Kanye West, The-Dream, Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Roc Nation boss Jay-Z, so at least looks worthy of the wait. Third track ‘Life On Mars (@FatBellyBella)’ also references Erykah Badu – a past Electronica collaborator and mother to Thedford’s three year-old daughter – via her Twitter alias, so there’s a chance she’s on the record, too.
Late US president Ronald Regan and Serge Gainsbourg are also mentioned, as are ‘cinematic’ British band The Bullitts.
