Gym Class Heroes Collaborate With Daryl Hall
In recent announcements plus a recent video uploaded to Travie’s blog, the first half of Hall & Oats, Daryl Hall will be collaborating with GCH on a featured track expected to be released on their upcoming album this summer. The collaboration was really only a matter of time considering GCH have openly expressed their love for Hall & Oats over the years and have attended their concerts recently, spotted smack dead centre in the front row. Openly expressing how much they love the ‘80’s duo has also sparked interest in a lot of GCH fans who have probably checked them out and become fans after hearing how much Travie and the boys love them. Last spring GCH also dubbed their North American tour as the Daryl Hall For President Tour, paying homage to the musicians, with an obvious preference for Hall over Oats.
From the looks of the video, which is embedded below, there seems to be a little sample of the new track. Sounds to be a nice, laid back track and I can’t wait to hear the whole thing, let alone the rest of the album which is also said to feature Busta Rhymes on one joint. If you want to talk about a diverse band, what other group than Gym Class could feature both Daryl Hall and Busta Rhymes on the same album? The collaboration between Hall and GCH has been long overdue as the band has proclaimed their love for Hall & Oars for years. Check out the video Travis posted and filmed himself here:
