Who doesn’t love a dope supergroup??  Especially when that supergroup consists of folks that have such a prominent presence in music in their own right.  Damon Albarn (lead vocalist for Gorillaz), Flea (bassist for Red Hot Chili Peppers) and Tony Allen (drummer and musical director for Fela Kuti) have combined their melodic awesomeness to create funk band Rocket Juice and The Moon.  Blending funk, Afrobeat and jazz, “Hey Shooter” results in a fast-moving, psychedelic journey.  And of course, Badu’s laidback soulfulness just adds light to the trippy tune.

Rocket Juice and The Moon are set to release their self-titled album Rocket Juice & Moon on March 27.
